The Ni(II) Complex of 2-Hydroxy-Pyridine-N-Oxide 2-Isothionate: Synthesis, Characterization, Biological Studies, and X-ray Crystal Structures Using (1) Cu Kα Data and (2) Synchrotron Data | Chapter 09 | New Advances in Materials Science and Engineering Vol. 2
C12H20N6NiO6S2
or NiL2(SCN)2](NH4)2.2H2O, where L
is 2-hydroxy-pyridine-N-oxide, has been prepared and characterized using
elemental analyses, IR, UV and visible spectrometry, magnetic moment
measurements, thermal analyses and single crystal X-ray analyis. The results
indicate that the complex reacts as a bidentate ligand and is bound to the
metal ion via the two oxygen atoms of the ligand (HL). The activation energies,
∆E*, entropies ∆S*, enthalpies ∆H* and order of reactions have been derived from
differential thermo-gravimetric (DTA) curves. Based on inhibition zone diameter
measurements, the complex exhibited significant antibacterial activity against
both Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. It also exhibited significant
antifungal activity against Candida albicans, but no activity was found against
Aspergillus flavus. The crystal structure of the Ni(II) complex [C12
H20 N6 Ni O6 S2], Mr = 467.17, was
determined from Cu Kα X-ray diffraction data, λ = 1.54178 Å, at 100 K using
direct methods. The crystals are monoclinic, space group P21/n with
Z = 4 and a = 8.9893(2) Å, b = 17.6680(5) Å, c = 12.5665(3) Å, β = 108.609(1)°.
In parallel with this study corresponding results were derived for the crystal
structure determined independently from synchrotron X-ray diffraction data, λ =
0.61990 Å, at 100 K. The unit cell parameters derived in this experiment are a
= 9.000(2) Å, b = 17.700(4) Å, c = 12.590(3) Å, β = 108.61(3)°. Both studies
show 4 O and 2 N atoms coordinating Ni in a distorted octahedral arrangement.
Each of the Ni 2-hydroxy-pyridinium-N-oxide moieties is highly planar and the
S=C=N-Ni ligands are approximately linear. The crystal structure is
characterised by a number of strong hydrogen bonds.
