The two complexes, [Ni(DPPT)2](NO3)2*1.5H2O (1) and [Ni(DPPT)(NO3)Cl].EtOH (2), were synthesized using the self-assembly of (E)-2,4-di(piperidin-1-yl)-6-(2-(1-(pyridin-2-yl)ethylidene)hydrazinyl)-1,3,5-triazine (DPPT) with Ni(NO3)2*6H2O in the absence and presence of NiCl2*6H2O, respectively. In both cases, the neutral tridentate DPPT ligand is found coordinated to the Ni(II) via three N-atoms from the hydrazone, pyridine and s-triazine rings. Hence, the homoleptic complex 1 has a NiN6 hexa-coordination environment while two NO3− are counter anions in addition to one-and-a-half crystallized hydration water molecules are found acting as an outer sphere. The heteroleptic complex 2 has a NiN3O2Cl coordination sphere where the coordination environment of the Ni(II) is completed by one bidentate nitrate and one chloride ion leading to a neutral inner sphere while the outer sphere contains one crystallized ethanol molecule. Both complexes have distorted octahedral coordination environments around the Ni(II) ion. Using Hirshfeld analysis, the intermolecular contacts H…H and O…H in 1 and the Cl…H, O…H, N…H, H…H, C…H and C…C in 2 are found to be the most important for crystal stability. The antimicrobial activity of complexes 1 and 2 was assessed against different bacterial and fungal strains, and the results were compared with the free ligand as well as the antibacterial (Gentamycin) and antifungal (Ketoconazole) positive controls. Both Ni(II) complexes are better antibacterial and antifungal agents than the free ligand. Interestingly, both Ni(II) complexes have similar antifungal activity against C. albicans compared to Ketoconazole. |
