    SYNTHESIS, CHARACTERIZATION, AND BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY OF NOVEL 3d METAL COORDINATION COMPOUNDS WITH 2-ACETYLPYRIDINE N4-allyl-S-METHYLISOTHIOSEMICARBAZONE
    (Wiley, 2021) Graur, Vasilii; Usataia, Irina; Bourosh, Pavlina; Kravtsov, Victor; Garbuz, Olga; Hureau, Christelle; Gulea, Aurelian
    New zinc(II), copper(II), nickel(II), iron(III), and cobalt(III) coordination compounds, [Zn(HL)I2] (1), [Cu(HL)Cl2] (2), [Cu(HL)Br2] (3), {[Cu(HL)NO3]NO3}n (4), [Ni(HL)2](NO3)2 (5), [Fe(L)2]NO3(6), [Co(L)2]NO3 (7), and [Co(L)2]Cl·H2O (8), were obtained with 2-acetylpyridine N4-allyl-S-methylisothiosemicarbazone (HL). The isothiosemicarbazone proligand was characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) (1H and 13C), infrared (IR) spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction. All the coordination compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV–Vis spectroscopy, molar conductivity, and magnetic susceptibility measurements. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis elucidated the structure of the cationic form of the proligand in the salt [H2L]I and compounds 1–4 and 8 and demonstrated an unusual way of coordination through methylated sulfur atom in 1 and 3. Nevertheless, the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and UV–Vis investigations showed that this way of coordination quickly changes upon dissolution of coordination compounds in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). The antiproliferative properties of these compounds towards human cervical epithelial HeLa, human epithelial pancreatic adenocarcinoma BxPC-3, human muscle rhabdomyosarcoma spindle, large multinucleated RD cancer cell lines, and normal kidney epithelial MDCK cell line have been investigated. Copper coordination compounds (2–4) show promising anticancer activity with high selectivity (selectivity index [SI] = 10–18) towards BxPC-3 cell line. They also possess significant antibacterial and antifungal activity, which is useful for cancer treatment.

    SYNTHESIS, CHARACTERIZATION AND BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY OF COPPER(II), NICKEL(II), COBALT(III) AND IRON(III) COORDINATION COMPOUNDS WITH 2-HYDROXY-3-METHOXYBENZALDEHYDE N(4)-ALLYL-S-METHYLISOTHIOSEMICARBAZONE
    (CEP USM, 2018) Usataia, Irina; Graur, Vasilii; Tsapcov, Victor; Gulea, Aurelian
    The paper presents the synthesis of the 2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde N(4)-allyl-S-methylisothiosemicarbazone (HL) and seven coordination compounds of copper, nickel, cobalt and iron with this ligand. The new obtained compounds were studied using IR, 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, molar electric conductibility and magnetic susceptibility. The in vitro antiproliferative activity of the HL and synthesized coordination compounds was screened on HeLa cancer cells and normal MDCK cells. The isothiosemicarbazone HL shows better anticancer activity towards HeLa cancer cells than doxorubicin that is used in medical practice and it also practically does not affect the growth and proliferation of normal cells. Moreover, it manifests high antioxidant activity towards ABTS•+ radical cation that exceeds the activity of trolox.
