Two series of thiosemicarbazone-based iron chelators (twenty-seven compounds) were designed and synthesized using a microwave-assisted approach. Quinoline and halogenated phenyl were selected as parent scaffolds on the basis of a similarity search. The lipophilicity of the synthesized compounds was measured using HPLC and then calculated. Primary in vitro screening of the synthesized compounds was performed against eight pathogenic fungal strains. Only a few compounds showed moderate activity against fungi, and (E)-2-(quinolin-2-ylvinyl)-N,N-dimethylhydrazine-carbothioamide appeared to be more effective than fluconazole against most of the fungal strains tested. Antiproliferative activity was measured using a human colon cancer cell line (HCT-116). Several of the tested compounds showed submicromolar antiproliferative activity. Compounds were also tested for their activity related to the inhibition of photosynthetic electron transport (PET) in spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) chloroplasts. The structure-activity relationships are discussed for all of the compounds.

Series of four benzaldehyde thiosemicarbazones has been synthesized under microwave irradiation and characterized structurally by means of infrared and NMR spectroscopies and mass spectrometry. Their crystal structures were determined by single crystal X-ray analysis followed by DFT calculations. Partial charges on the molecular surface and dipole moments of the structures were calculated. Crystal structures are stabilized by intramolecular hydrogen bonding and stacking interactions. Studied compounds are interesting as antiproliferative and antifungal agents acting through interactions with iron. Thus presented results may be useful in design new more active or specific structures. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Abstract This paper presents a combined experimental and computational study of Ru(II) carbonylcomplexes containing thiosemicarbazone ligands. Five novel [Ru(H/Cl)(L)(PPh 3 ) 2 ] complexes have been obtained and characterized by IR, 1 H, 13 C, 31 P NMR, UV–Vis spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. Their electronic structures have been determined using the density functional theory (DFT) method and
