Synthesis, characterization, molecular modeling and antioxidant activity of Girard's T thiosemicarbazide and its complexes with some transition metal ions.
The chelation behavior of N-{[(allylamino) thiomethyl] hydrazinocarbonylmethyl} trimethylammonium chloride (H3ATHC) towards VO(2+), Co(2+), Ni(2+), Cu(2+), Zn(2+) and UO2(2+) ions have been studied. The structures of the complexes were elucidated using elemental analyses, spectral (IR, UV-visible, (1)H NMR and ESR and mass) as well as magnetic and thermal measurements. The ligand acted as ON bidentate, ONS tridentate donor forming mononuclear complexes. A tetrahedral geometry for Co(2+), square-planar for Ni(2+) and Cu(2+), an octahedral for Zn(2+) and a square-pyramidal arrangement for VO(2+) complexes were proposed, respectively. The EPR spectra of Cu(2+) and VO(2+) complexes confirmed the suggested geometries with values of α(2) and β(2) indicating that the in-plane σ-bonding and in-plane π-bonding are appreciably covalent, and were consistent with very strong in-plane σ bonding in the complexes. Also, the bond length, bond angle, HOMO, LUMO, dipole moment and charges on the atoms have been calculated. Also, the thermal behavior and kinetic parameters were determined using Coats-Redfern and Horowitz-Metzger methods. Furthermore, the synthesized compounds were screened for their superoxide-scavenging activity in the PMS/NADH-NBT system as well as their scavenging effect on ABTS (2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethyl benzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH) radicals. Among these compounds, the ligand and Zn(2+) complex, exhibited the potent ABTS (2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethyl benzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) radical scavenging activity, comparable to that of vitamin C.
