Popis: The pyridoxal-semicarbazone (PLSC) ligand and its transition metal complexes have shown significant biological activity. In this contribution, a novel nickel(II)-PLSC complex, [Ni(PLSC)(SO4)(H2O)2], was obtained, and its structure was determined by X-ray crystallographic analysis, FTIR, and UV-VIS spectroscopy. The sulfate ion is directly coordinated to the central metal ion. The intermolecular stabilization interactions were examined using Hirshfeld surface analysis. The crystal structure was optimized by a B3LYP functional using two pseudopotentials for nickel(II) (LanL2DZ and def2-TZVP) together with a 6-311++G(d,p) basis set for non-metallic atoms. The experimental and theoretical bond lengths and angles were compared, and the appropriate level of theory was determined. The stabilization interactions within the coordination sphere were investigated by the Quantum Theory of Atoms in Molecules (QTAIM). The antioxidant activity towards hydroxyl and ascorbyl radicals was measured by EPR spectroscopy. The interactions between Human Serum Albumin (HSA) and the complex were examined by spectrofluorimetric titration and a molecular docking study. The mechanism of binding to DNA was analyzed by complex fluorescence quenching, potassium iodide quenching, and ethidium bromide displacement studies in conjunction with molecular docking simulations.
