ABSTRACT
Two triazolopyrimidine complexes have been obtained from reaction between 7-amino-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine (7atp) and Cu (II) salts. Crystal structures of [Cu2(µ-7atp)4Cl2]Cl2·4H2O (1) and [Cu2(µ-7atp)4(H2O)2](NO3)4·H2O (2) have been studied by X-ray diffraction methods and characterized by spectroscopic and thermal analysis. Magnetic studies of these dinuclear complexes have revealed the existence of moderate antiferromagnetic interactions between the copper ions, with J values of -91.2 and -96.1cm-1 respectively. It must be highlighted that the antiparasitic activity of these new complexes has been studied in vitro against three different strains of leishmania spp. and Trypanosoma cruzi, showing a higher efficacy than the 7atp ligand and the reference commercial drugs.

A serie of isostructural complexes with general formula [M(ftpO)2(H2O)4] have been obtained from reaction between the first time characterized triazolopyrimidine derivative 5-phenyl-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidi-7(4H)-one (HftpO) (1) and first row transition nitrates (M=Cu (2), Co (3), Ni (4) and Zn (5)). A copper complex with formula [Cu(HftpO)2(NO3)2(H2O)2]·H2O (6) was also isolated. HftpO and their metal complexes have been characterized by spectroscopic and thermal analysis and their crystal structures have been solved by X-ray diffraction methods. The isostructural compounds are mononuclear complexes where the triazolopyrimidine ligand acts as monodentate ligand through N3 nitrogen position. The crystal structure of these novel bis-5-phenyl-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-7(4H)-one-tetraaquo metal complexes offers an excellent opportunity at these complexes to acts as potential building blocks. Also, the antiparasitic activity of HftpO ligand against different leishmania and trypanosome strains has been studied.
