Some new biologically active metal-based sulfonamide

A new series of sulfonamide derived Schiff bases has been synthesized by a condensation reaction of various sulfonamides with aromatic aldehydes. The so obtained sulfonamide were further investigated for their chelation and biological properties with first row d-transition metal ions [cobalt(II), copper(II), nickel(II) and zinc(II)]. The nature of bonding and structure of all the synthesized compounds have been inferred from magnetic susceptibility and conductivity measurements, IR, (1)H and (13)C NMR, electronic spectral, mass spectrometry and CHN analysis data. The structure of ligand, 4-{[(E)-(5-bromo-2-hydroxy phenyl)methylidene]amino}-N-(4,6-dimethylpyrimidin-2-yl)benzenesulfonamide has also been determined by X-ray diffraction method. An octahedral geometry has been suggested for all the complexes. The ligands and their metal complexes have been screened for in vitro antibacterial, antifungal and cytotoxic properties. The result of these studies have revealed that all compounds showed moderate to significant antibacterial activity against one or more bacterial strains and good antifungal activity against various fungal strains.

Synthesis, characterization and biological studies of sulfonamide Schiff’s bases and some of their metal derivatives

A new series of Schiff base ligands derived from sulfonamide and their metal(II) complexes [cobalt(II), copper(II), nickel(II) and zinc(II)] have been synthesized and characterized. The nature of bonding and structure of all the synthesized compounds has been explored by physical, analytical and spectral data of the ligands and their metal(II) complexes. The authors suggest that all the prepared complexes possess an octahedral geometry. The ligands and metal(II) complexes have been screened for their in vitro antibacterial activity against bacterial strains, Escherichia coli, Shigella flexneri, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella typhi and for antifungal activity against fungal strains, Trichophyton longifusus, Candida albicans, Aspergillus flavus, Microsporum canis, Fusarium solani and Candida glabrata. These assays enabled the identification of the metal complexes as an effective antimicrobial agent with low cytotoxicity.

4-Chloro-2-[(E)-({4-[N-(3,4-dimethyl-isoxazol-5-yl)sulfamo-yl]phen-yl}iminio)meth-yl]phenolate.

The title compound, C18H16ClN3O4S, is a Schiff base ligand in which the H atom of the hydroxy group has moved to the N atom of the imine group, resulting in a zwitterion. The structure is stabilized by an intramolecular (N—H⋯O) and five intermolecular (C—H⋯O, C—H⋯N and N—H⋯O) hydrogen bonds. The molecules are linked to each other by hydrogen bonds and form a three-dimensional polymeric network. In addition, the aromatic rings are also involved in π–π interactions [centroid–centroid distance between aromatic rings = 3.7525 (11) Å].

4-(5-Chloro-2-hydroxy-benzyl-idene-amino)-N-(4,6-dimethyl-pyrimidin-2-yl)benzene-sulfonamide.

The title compound, C19H17ClN4O3S, is a Schiff base compound of 5-chlorosalicylaldehyde and sulfamethazine [4-amino-N-(4,6-dimethyl-2-pyrimidinyl)benzenesulfonamide]. The geometry around the S atom is distorted tetrahedral, comprising two O atoms of the sulfonyl group, a C atom of a benzene ring and the amino N atom. The title compound has an intramolecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bond and two intermolecular C—H⋯O and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, which link neighbouring molecules into 10-membered rings. As a result of an unavoidable conformational arrangement, a slightly short intramolecular contact of distance 2.59 Å exists between an O atom of the sulfonyl group and an H atom of the sulfamethazine benzene ring.

4-Bromo-2-((E)-{4-[(3,4-dimethylisoxazol-5-yl)sulfamoyl]phenyl}iminiomethyl)phenolate

The title compound, C18H16BrN3O4S, is a Schiff base ligand of 5-bromosalicylaldehyde and sulfisoxazole [or N-(3,4-dimethyl-5-isoxazol)sulfanilamide]. The present structure is a zwitterion and is a more precise reinterpretation of the structure which was originally reported by Hämäläinen, Lehtinen & Turpeinen [Arch. Pharm. (1986), 319, 415–420]. The two aromatic rings which make π–π interactions [centroid–centroid distance 3.7538 (18) Å] through intermolecular interactions. There is also a C—Br⋯π interaction [3.6333 (15) Å] with the heterocyclic ring. An intramolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bond also exists. Dimers are formed due to intermolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonding. Intermolecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonding links a methyl C atom and the phenolate O atom. The dimers are linked by C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, where the C atom is from the Schiff base group and the N atom is of five-membered heterocyclic ring.

4-[(5-Bromo-2-hydroxy­benzyl­idene)amino]-N-(4,6-dimethyl­pyrimidin-2-yl)benzene­sulfonamide–4-bromo-2-[(E)-({4-[(4,6-dimethyl­pyrimidin-2-yl)sulfamo­yl]phen­yl}iminio)meth­yl]phenolate [0.61 (7)/0.39 (7)]

The title compound, 0.61C19H17BrN4O3S·0.39C19H17BrN4O3S, is a Schiff base derived from 5-bromosalicylaldehyde and 4-amino-N-(4,6-dimethyl-2-pyrimidinyl)benzenesulfonamide(sulfamethazine) and is isostructural with its chloro analogue. The geometry of the title molecule points to the enol (OH—C=C—C=N) form as the major tautomer, however two electron-density maxima corresponding to the H atoms of the OH and NH groups, found in the region of a strong intramolecular N⋯H⋯O hydrogen bond, do not allow the elimination of the presence of the zwitterionic (O−—C=C—C=NH+) form in the crystal. Refinement of the occupancies of these H atoms gave a 0.61 (7):0.39 (7) ratio of the enolic and zwitterionic forms. The two benzene rings within the molecule are nearly coplanar and the central benzene ring forms a dihedral angle of 84.1 (1)° with the pyrimidine fragment. An intermolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bond links molecules into chains extended along the a axis and a C—H⋯O link is also present. The H atoms of one of the methyl groups are disordered over two sites with an occupancy ratio of 0.72 (7):0.28 (7).

4-{2-[(5-Chloro-2-hydroxy-benzyl-idene)amino]eth-yl}benzene-sulfonamide.

In the molecule of the title compound, C15H15ClN2O3S, the S atom adopts a distorted tetrahedral coordination geometry with two O atoms, one N atom of the amide group and one C atom of the aromatic ring. An intramolecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bond results in the formation of a planar six-membered ring, which is oriented with respect to the adjacent aromatic ring at a dihedral angle of 3.38 (11)°. Thus, the two rings are nearly coplanar. In the crystal structure, intermolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the molecules into centrosymmetric dimers.

(E)-1-(2-Nitro-benzyl-idene)-2-phenyl-hydrazine.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C13H11N3O2, contains two molecules with slightly different conformations: the dihedral angle between the aromatic rings is 13.01 (10)° in one molecule and 14.05 (10)° in the other. Both molecules feature short intramolecular C—H⋯O contacts, which generate S(6) rings. In the crystal, both molecules form inversion dimers linked by pairs of N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, thereby generating R 2 2(16) rings.
