Fe(II) and Zn(II) complex series have been synthesized from Schiff base ligands derived from furan-2-carbaldehyde and thiophene-2-carbaldehyde. Elemental, infrared, ultra-violet- visible, NMR and thermal analysis, also mass spectroscopy and magnetic susceptibility measurements were performed to explain the structures of these synthesized ligands and their metal complexes. The formulas based on analytical, spectral, and magnetic studies, the complexes can be demonstrated as [M(L-1)(2)](H2O)(n), [M(L-2)(2)](H2O)(n), where M = Zn(II) and Fe(II). An octahedral geometry was suggested for the Zn(II) and Fe(II) complexes. The antioxidant, antiradical and antimicrobial properties of the Zn(II) and Fe(II) complexes were investigated using different in vitro assays. Some of the complexes showed reasonable amount of antioxidant and antimicrobial activity.

Synthesis, characterization, antiproliferative of pyrimidine based ligand and its Ni(II) and Pd(II) complexes and effectiveness of electroporation

Mehmet Esref Alkis, Kenan Buldurun, Nevin Turan, Yusuf Alan, Unzile Kelestemur Yilmaz, Asim Mantarci

Summary: In this study, a new Schiff base and its Ni(II) and Pd(II) complexes were synthesized and characterized. The antiproliferative activities of these compounds on liver cancer cells were evaluated, and it was found that the complexes exhibited stronger activity than the ligand. Electroporation was also shown to enhance the cytotoxicity of the complexes. These findings suggest that the Ni(II) and Pd(II) complexes have potential as anti-cancer agents, particularly in electrochemotherapy.

Summary: The Schiff base ligand (L) was synthesized and used for complexation with Cu(II) and Fe(II) ions. The structural features of the ligand and metal complexes were determined by various spectroscopic methods. The synthesized compounds showed good anti-proliferative effects on U118 and T98G glioblastoma cell lines and negligible cytotoxicity on human dermal fibroblast (HDF) cell lines. The use of compounds in combination with electroporation (EP) resulted in significantly decreased IC50 values.

Synthesis of Pd +2 complexes of Schiff bases containing methyl 2-amino-6-benzyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrothieno[2,3-c]pyridine-3-carboxylate and spectral and catalytic activities

Kenan Buldurun, Tayfun Saridag

Summary: In this study, ONS-donor atom containing Schiff base ligands (1, 2) were utilized to synthesize complexes 1a and 2a. The ligands were prepared using 2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde and 4-benzoxybenzaldehyde with a precursor in an ethanol medium. Pd(II) complexes (1a, 2a) were then formed by reacting the corresponding [PdCl2(CH3CN)2] with the Schiff base ligands in a 1:1 molar proportion. The molecular structures of the Schiff bases (1, 2) and their Pd(II) complexes (1a, 2a) were characterized using various analytical/spectroscopic techniques. The results demonstrated that the presence of complexes 1a and 2a as catalysts could facilitate Suzuki-Miyaura and Mizoroki-Heck cross-coupling reactions, leading to high-yield coupling products.

Summary: Cross-coupling reactions are powerful tools for carbon-carbon bond formation in organic synthesis. Palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions have attracted significant attention. Two new Schiff base-Pd(II) complexes were synthesized and characterized. The complexes were applied in Suzuki-Miyaura and Mizoroki-Heck cross-coupling reactions, showing high yields. Electron-donating and electron-withdrawing substituents on aryl halides can produce coupling products in perfect yield in the presence of these complexes.

Serap Karabulut, Memet Sekerci, Ragip Adiguzel, Zuhal Karagoz Genc

Summary: In this study, cetyl alcohol was microencapsulated with titanium-n-butoxide using the coacervation method. The thermal and structural analyses confirmed that cetyl alcohol has phase change material properties. Microencapsulated samples were prepared by adding barite, boron nitride, marble powder, and fly ash. The structural and thermal properties of the microencapsulated PCM and composite-supported microencapsulated PCMs were analyzed using FTIR, DSC, TGA, and SEM devices. The results showed that barite and boron nitride microencapsulated samples exhibited the most suitable structural and thermal properties for thermal energy storage in buildings.
