Pyridylbenzimidazole based Re(i)(CO)₃ complexes: antimicrobial activity, spectroscopic and density functional theory calculations.

ABSTRACT: fac-[ReBr(CO)₃(L^1,2)] L¹ = 1-ethyl-2-(pyridin-2-yl)benzimidazole (1) and L² = 1-[(pyridin-2-yl) benzimidazole]-propyl-sulfonic acid (2), fac-[Re₂Br₂(CO)₆L³] (3) L³ = 1,1'-(hexane-1,6-diyl)bis[2-(pyridin-2-yl)1H-benzimidazole] and fac-[ReBr(CO)₃(L^4,5-κ²N¹N²)] (L⁴ = 2,6-bis(benzimidazol-2'-yl)pyridine (4) and L⁵ = 2,6-bis(1-ethyl-benzimidazol-2'-yl)pyridine (5) were synthesized and fully characterized using different spectrocopic and analytical tools. The spectrocopic data showed coordination of L^1-3 to fac-ReBr(CO)₃ via the benzimidazole and pyridine N-at
