Synthesis, Biological and Medicinal Evaluation of New Boric Acid Ester Derived From Antibiotic Drug with Some of Its Metal Complexes
Main Article Content
Abstract
Synthesis of new ligand, namely [bis(2-(2-methyl-5-nitro-1H-imidazol-1-yl)ethyl) hydrogen borate] (BIB), utilizing the reaction of metronidazole with boric acid in mole ratio (2:1), as well as the metal complexes with [Ni(II) and Cu(II)], were synthesized. All synthesized compounds were characterized by utilizing spectroscopic techniques such as FTIR, 1H-NMR, thermal analysis (T.G., UV-Vis), and atomic absorption (A.A.S.), as well as micro elemental analysis (C.H.N.), melting point (m.p), magnetic susceptibility, molar conductivity, and chloride content measurements. All complexes were paramagnetic, and the electrolyte and the suggested geometries were tetrahedral for nickel and octahedral for copper. In addition, all the transition metal complexes produced were shown to be antibacterial and antifungal against the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and the fungus Candida. Also, metronidazole and the ligand were evaluated as anticancer agents against human breast cancer (MCF-7). The results showed that ligand was more active as an anticancer than metronidazole.
