Synthesis, characterization and antifungal activities of 3d-transition metal complexes of 1-acetylpiperazinyldithiocarbamate, M(acpdtc)2.
A series of mononuclear 3d-transition metal complexes of the type M(acpdtc)2 have been synthesized (where acpdtc=1-acetylpiperazinyldithiocarbamate, M=Mn(II), Fe(II), Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II)). The ligand and its complexes have been characterized by micro analysis (CHNS), TG/DSC, FT-IR, UV-vis, 1H NMR, magnetic susceptibility and conductance measurements. On the basis IR spectroscopy a symmetrical bidentate coordination has been observed for the 1-acetylpiperazinyldithiocarbamate moiety in all the complexes. On the basis of UV-vis spectra and magnetic susceptibility measurement a square-planar geometry has been proposed for the Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes while the other complexes have been found to acquire a distorted-tetrahedral structure. The thermogravimetric and differential scanning calorimetric profile of the ligand indicates a two-step decomposition pattern while the complexes exhibit a three-stage thermogram forming metal sulfide as the eventual end product. The molar conductivity data of 1mM solution in DMSO of the complexes is in close accord to their non-electrolytic behaviour. The ligand and its 3d-transition metal complexes have also been tested for their antifungicidal activity by agar well diffusion method using Fusarium sp. and Sclerotina sp. The maximum activity has been observed in case of Mn(II) and Fe(II) complexes.
