Abstract: Mn (II) complex of the Schiff base (L), 3-(2-(2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylidene) hydrazinyl) quinoxalin-2(1H)-one (VHQO) was prepared and characterized by IR, UV-VIS, Mass, Elemental analysis, TGDTA, magnetic susceptibility and conductivity measurements. VHQO behaved as monobasic, tridentate ligand and formed 1:2 complex (ML2) with the metal ion (M) coordinating through ring nitrogen, azomethine nitrogen and phenolic oxygen. Thermal analysis of the complex indicated the absence of lattice and coordinated water. Based on the spectral and analytical data, octahedral geometry was assigned to the complex. Antibacterial activity of the complex against gram positive bacteria, Bacillus subtillis, Staphylococcus aureus, and gram negative bacteria, Escherichia coli, Proteus vulgaris, Pseudomonas aeroginosa , and Klebsiella pneumonia was studied. The interaction of the complex with Calf Thymus DNA (CT-DNA) was studied by absorption spectroscopy and the intrinsic binding constant was calculated. Keywords: Schiff base, tridentate ligand, Metal complex, DNA binding, Anti bacterial.
I. Introduction Transition metal complexes of Schiff base ligands are known for their potential applications in antibacterial, antifungal, magnetic, photoluminescent and DNA binding properties [1-11]. During recent years, quinoxaline based Schiff bases emerged as an important class of ligands and formed metal complexes with a broad spectrum of biological activity [12-17].Owing to the significant chemical, catalytic and biological activities of the Schiff base complexes, the present communication reports the synthesis, characterization and biological activity of Mn (II) complex of the Schiff base ligand, 3-(2-(2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylidene) hydrazinyl) quinoxalin-2(1H)-one (VHQO).
II. Experimental 2.1. Materials and methods All chemicals used were of reagent grade and were used without any prior purification. O-phynelenediamine was purchased from Loba Chemie India. Oxalic acid, hydrazine hydrate, o-vanillin and metal chloride were purchased from Merck. Calf-thymus DNA was purchased from Sigma. IR spectra were recorded in KBr pellets from 250 to 4000 cm-1 using SCHIMADZU FTIR-5300 spectrometer. Electronic spectra were recorded on Shimadzu UV-3600 spectrometer. 1H NMR spectrum was recorded in DMSO d6 solvent with Bruker 400 MHz spectrometer. Thermo gravimetric analysis was carried using TG/DTA EXTAR 6300 in the temperature range of 250C to 8000C with a heating rate of 100C/min under Nitrogen atmosphere. Elemental analysis was carried out using FLASH Ea 1112 SERIES CHNS analyzer. Electrical conductance measurements were recorded using 10-3M solutions of the complexes in DMSO with an Elico conductivity bridge and dip type cell calibrated with KCl solution. Magnetic susceptibilities were measured on a Faraday balance model 7550 at room temperature using Hg[Co(NCS)4] as calibrant. Diamagnetic corrections were computed using Pascal’s constants. 2.2. Synthesis of 3-(2-(2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylidene) hydrazinyl) quinoxalin-2(1H)-one (VHQO) Synthesis of 3-(2-(2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylidene) hydrazinyl) quinoxalin-2(1H)-one (VHQO) (L) involves 3steps 2.2.1. Synthesis of quinoxaline-2,3(1H,4H)-dione O-phenylene diamine (100 m.mol) and oxalic acid (100 m.mol) were dissolved in 50 ml of 4N HCl and heated on water bath for 20 minutes. A crystalline solid was formed. The reaction mixture was cooled and the product was filtered, washed with water to remove traces of HCl and dried [18]. 2.2.2.
