The complexation equilibria of folic acid (FA) and glycine (Gly) were studied in aqueous solutions at room temperature (ca. 298.15 K) and in fixed ionic strength (0.15 mol.dm−3 NaNO3), by means of potentiometry technique. The ferric (Fe3+), ferrous (Fe2+), calcium (Ca2+), and zinc (Zn2+) complex-forming capacities of FA and Gly, and their overall stability constants in aqueous solutions were obtained by applying the potentiometric data in Hyperquad 2008 computer program. From the determined stability constants of the metal complex species, the concentration distribution of the various metal ion complex species involving FA and Gly in solutions was estimated using HySS 2009 software. The complex species distribution diagrams were explained and discussed. Supplementary, the Gibbs free energies and the molecular structures of the formed complexes were evaluated and predicted using Gaussian 09 software molecular modeling and calculations.

A series of Mn(II), Fe(III) and Zn(II) complexes have been synthesized with Schiff bases derived from isatin and 3-substituted-4-amino-5-mercapto-1,2,4-triazole. The elemental, spectroscopic (Infrared, nuclear magnetic resonance, ultraviolet-visible, fast atom bombardment-mass, fluorescence and electrochemistry) and magnetic studies suggested that the metal complexes possess octahedral geometry. The Schiff bases and their metal complexes exhibit fluorescent properties. The antimicrobial studies of Schiff bases and their metal complexes against various bacterial (Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacillus subtilis) and fungal (Aspergillus niger, and Penicillium chrysogenum) species by the minimum inhibitory concentration method revealed that the metal complexes possess more healing antibacterial activities than the Schiff bases. DNA cleavage property of Mn(II), Fe(III) and Zn(II) complexes revealed the important role of metal ion in the biological system.

The present study emphasizes synthesis and bioprofiling of embelin, embelin-metal (EM) and embelin-azo-metal (EAM) complexes in detail. EM complexes were prepared using pure embelin and d-block transition elements, namely Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, and Zn. Similarly, EAM complexes were synthesized using phenyl azo-embelin with the said transition metals. Embelin, EM, and EAM complexes were subjected to ultra violet visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, thermogravimetric analysis, carbon hydrogen nitrogen sulfur analysis. With regard to bioprofiling, the test complexes were studied for the antioxidant and antimicrobial activities. Results revealed that the prepared EM and EAM complexes form octahedral complexes with embelin with the yield in the range of 45–75%. All the instrumental analyses authenticate the interaction of metals with bidentate embelin through its enolic and quinonic oxygen atoms as [M(Emb)2(H2O)2]H2O and [M(Emb-Azo)2(H2O)2]. The antioxidant profile studies suggested that upon complexation with metals, the free radical scavenging activity of embelin reduced significantly. But, with regard to antimicrobial activity, cobalt and nickel embelin complexes displayed>80% growth inhibition in comparison with embelin alone. The hemolytic activity studies suggested that both embelin and the metal complexes are non-hemolytic. The reason for the reduction in antioxidant and an increase in antimicrobial activities were discussed in detail.

A novel dinuclear, distorted octahedral complex of nalidixic acid (nal) with Cd(II) metal ion with the formula [Cd2(Nal)2(Phen)2(Cl)2] has been synthesized in the presence of N-containing heterocyclic ligand, 1,10-phenanthroline (phen). The synthesized metal complex was characterized using CHN analysis, Fourier transformed infra-red, thermo gravimetric analysis, differential scanning chalorimetry, nuclear magnetic resonance, ultra violet-visible and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The newly synthesized complex shows more pronounced antifungal activity compared with the parent quinolone against four fungi, namely Pythium aphanidermatum, Sclerotinia rolfsii, Rhizoctonia solani and Rhizoctonia bataticola.

A new calix[4]pyrrole-based macrocycle, meso-tetramethyltetrakis-[4-(2-ethoxy)ethoxyphenyl]calix[4]pyrrole, (2) has been prepared and characterized. The binding ability of (2) for metal cations were investigated by ultraviolet–visible spectrophotometry in acetonitrile at 298.15 K. Stability constant and thermodynamic parameters for 1:1 binding interaction between (2) and Pb(II) cation were measured at different temperatures. Ether calix[4]pyrrole polymer, (4) was also synthesized. Solid-phase extraction of Pb(II) cation by (4) from the aqueous media has been studied using the batch method. Various significant extraction parameters (mass, lead concentration, temperature, and time) have been evaluated. Analysis of equilibrium data shows linear fitting with the Langmuir isotherm. Uptake capacity was found to be 80 mg g−1 at 298.15 K. Kinetic studies show a pseudo-second-order reaction mechanism. The thermodynamic parameters of extractions were also calculated.
