Synthesis, Structural Characterization, and Computational Studies of Novel Co(II) and Zn(II) Fluoroquinoline Complexes for Antibacterial and Antioxidant Activities.

ABSTRACT: Research into heterocyclic ligands has increased in popularity due to their versatile applications in the biomedical field. Quinoline derivatives with their transition metal complexes are popular scaffolding molecules in the ongoing pursuit of newer and more effective bioactive molecules. Subsequently, this work reports on the synthesis and possible biological application of new Zn(II) and Co(II) complexes with a bidentate quinoline derivative ligand (H₂ L), [(H₂ L):(E)-2-(((6-fluoro-2-((2-hydroxyethyl)amino)quinolin-3-yl)methylene)amino)ethanol]. The ligand and its metal complexes were structurally characterized by spectroscopic methods (¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), UV-vis, fluorescence, and mass spect
