RESUMO
Herein, we report anti-malarial, anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory activities of theN2O2 donor tetradentate salen ligand and its CoL, NiL, and CuL metal complexes. All the compoundswere synthesized and characterized by various spectroscopic analytical methods.Thein-vitro antimalarial investigations revealed that the complex CuL exhibited equipotency with quinine drug having IC50 value 0.25 µg/mL.The compound L shows significant inhibition of bacterial spp.viz.E. Coli, P. Aeruginosa, and S. Aureus (MIC=12.5-50µg/mL), while the compound CoL (MIC=12.5µg/mL) exhibited potency against gram-positive bacteria. In the in-vitro anti-inflammatory study, the compound CuL has moderate activity than other tested compounds. The compound CuL showedthe highest anti-malarial docking score with enzyme pLDH at -8.12 Kcal/mol. The DFT study also gives authentication of higher antimalarial activity of CuL due to high dipole moment. None of the potent compound was found cytotoxic towards verocell lines.
RESUMO
In the title racemic compound, C(26)H(32)N(2)O(3), an intra-molecular O-Hâ¯N hydrogen bond is formed between the phenolic OH group and the tertiary amine N atom. Another O-Hâ¯N hydrogen bond that is formed between the OH group and the pyridine N atom links the mol-ecules into a polymeric chain extending along the a axis. The structure is further stabilized by intramolecular and intermolecular C-Hâ¯O interactions.
