Supramolecular Diversity, Theoretical Investigation and Antibacterial Activity of Cu, Co and Cd Complexes Based on the Tridentate N,N,O-Schiff Base Ligand Formed In Situ.

ABSTRACT: The four new complexes, [Cu(HL1)(L2)Cl] (1), [Cu(HL1)(L1)]∙Cl∙2H2O (2), [Co(L1)2]∙Cl (3) and [Cd(HL1)I2]∙dmso (4), have been prepared by one-pot reactions of the respective chloride or iodide metal salt with a non-aqueous solution of the polydentate Schiff base, HL1, resulted from in situ condensation of benzhydrazide and 2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde, while a ligand HL2, in case of 1, has been formed due to the oxidation of 2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde under reaction conditions. The crystallographic analysis revealed that the molecular building units in 1-4 are linked together into complex structures by hydrogen bonding, resulting in 1D, 2D and 3D supramolecular architectures for 1, 2 and 4, respectively, and the supramolecular trimer for 3. The electronic structures of 1-4 were investigated by th
