Complexes of 1-acetyl-5-aryl-3-(substituted thienyl)-4,5-dihydropyrazoles [AATP; Ar = 2-OCH3, 4-OCH3 and 3,4-(OCH3)(2)] with oxovanadium(IV) ion have been synthesized and characterized on the basis of elemental analyses, molar conductance, magnetic susceptibility, molecular weight determination and spectral (ESR, IR and UV) data. The pyrazoles behaved as bidentate ligands coordinating through oxygen and nitrogen N(2) of the carbonyl and azomethine groups, respectively. ESR data of the powdered samples of the complexes and in DMF solution suggested a distorted octahedral environment around oxovanadium(IV). The ligands and vanadyl complexes were evaluated for antifungal activity against Colletotrichum capsicum and Rhizoctonia solani at 37 degrees C and antibacterial activity against Bacillus subtilis and Escherichia coli at 28 degrees C. Metalation had pronounced effects on the antimicrobial activity of the ligands.
