Semi-coordination Cu–O bond on a copper complex featuring O,O-donor ligand as potential antibacterial agent: green synthesis, characterization, DFT, in-silico ADMET profiling and molecular docking studies
)amino)acetic acid (MPAA) and its coppercomplex (Cu-MPAA) has been performed. The new ligand, MPAA, was obtained via a catalyst-free reaction at roomtemperature by mixing a solution of 2-amino-5-methylpyridine (AMPy) with chloroacetic acid (CA) in a short time. The characterization of MPAA has been carried out using NMR and FTIR spectroscopies, while the complex has been characterized using UV–Vis
