Abstract: | A few new and versatile complexes of titanium(IV) derived from 2-hydroxyacetophenone of the types {[(Ap)Ti(OPr i )2?n (L2) n ] (2a, 2e and 2f)}, {[(Ap)Ti(L1OR)(L2)] (2b–2d, 2g–2i)} have been synthesized by the reaction of the precursor [(Ap)Ti(OPr i )2] with different 2-heteroaryl methyl ketone oximes and alkoxyalkanols in various molar ratios in refluxing toluene yielded mono nuclear heteroleptic derivatives, {where, n = 1–2, HAp = 2-hydroxyacetophenone, Pr i = isopropyl, L1 = O–CH2–CH2?, R = CH3, C2H5, C4H9 and HL2=HONC(Me)py-2, HONC(Me)fu-2}. All these newly synthesized complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, mass, UV, FT-IR and NMR (1H, 13C) spectral studies. The mass spectra of the newly synthesized molecules indicate their monomeric state. Spectral studies suggest the bonding between metal and ligands in a tetra coordinated fashion. Thermogravimetric analyses indicate the multistep decomposition of complexes resulting TiO2 as the end product at 600 °C. Antibacterial activities of these complexes were also exercised. Complex 2e is equipotent to the standard drug against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli. A keen molecular docking study revealed lesser docking scores of some of these complexes than that of the standard drug gentamicin. |
