| Popis: | A series of mononuclear Cu(II) complexes were synthesized using a potential tetradentate hydrazone ligand obtained from the reaction between phenylhydrazine groups and 2,5-thiophenedicarboxaldehyde. The structures of ligands and complexes were elucidated through various spectroscopic techniques, confirming their composition. All complexes were found to adopt four-coordinated geometries, indicating the formation of stable structures. Spectroscopic analysis revealed that the hydrazone ligand coordinated with the Cu(II) metal ions as a dibasic tetradentate ligand by utilizing the phenolic oxygen and azomethine nitrogen atoms. The binding affinity of the complexes with calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) was investigated using absorption and viscosity measurements, demonstrating their interaction through the intercalation mode. The binding studies showed that the Cu(II) complexes exhibited varying degrees of binding affinity, with Cu(L4) demonstrating the highest affinity, followed by Cu(L1), Cu(L2), and Cu(L3). Moreover, the DNA fragmentation properties of the Cu(II) complexes were evaluated, suggesting their potential utilization in pharmaceutical applications. The obtained results highlight the significance of these novel complexes in the field of medicinal chemistry. |
