Synthesis, characterization, crystal structure of the coordination polymer Zn(II) with thiosemicarbazone of glyoxalic acid and their inhibitory properties against some metabolic enzymes.

A new coordination polymer Zn(II) with thiosemicarbazone glyoxalic acid H2GAT was obtained in this study. According to the X-ray diffraction data, the coordination of the Zn(II) ion is carried out by one sulfur atom, in the thiol form, one nitrogen atom of the azomethine group and two oxygen atoms of the carboxylate groups, one of which belongs to neighbouring complex molecule. The oxygen atom of the water molecule completes Zn(II) ion environment to a distorted square-pyramidal structure. The binding of the monomer complex into polimer occurs through the bridge oxygen atom of carboxylate group. This complex is effective inhibitor of the α-glycosidase, butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), cytosolic carbonic anhydrase I and II isoforms (hCA I and II), and acetylcholinesterase enzymes (AChE) enzymes with Ki values of 1.45 ±â€¯0.23 µM for hCA I, 2.04 ±â€¯0.11 µM for hCA II, 3.47 ±â€¯0.88 µM for α-glycosidase, 0.47 ±â€¯0.10 µM for BChE, and 0.58 ±â€¯0.13 µM for AChE, respectively.

Synthesis, crystal structure and biological evaluation of spectroscopic characterization of Ni(II) and Co(II) complexes with N-salicyloil-N'-maleoil-hydrazine as anticholinergic and antidiabetic agents.

[Ni(C11 H9 N2 O5 )2 (H2 O)2 ]•3(C3 H7 NO) (1) and [Co(C11 H9 N2 O5 )2 (H2 O)2 ]•3(C3 H7 NO) (2) are synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR spectra, magnetic susceptibility, and thermal analysis. In addition, the crystal structure of Ni(II) complex is presented. Both complexes show distorted octahedral geometry. In 1 and 2, metal ions are coordinated by two oxygen atoms of salicylic residue and two nitrogen atoms of maleic amide residue from two ligands, and two oxygen atoms from two water molecules. In this paper, both compounds showed excellent inhibitory effects against human carbonic anhydrase (hCA) isoforms I, and II, α-glycosidase, acetylcholinesterase (AChE), and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE). Compounds 1 and 2 had Ki values of 18.36 ± 4.38 and 26.61 ± 7.54 nM against hCA I and 13.81 ± 3.02 and 29.56 ± 6.52 nM against hCA II, respectively. On the other hand, their Ki values were found to be 487.45 ± 54.18 and 453.81 ± 118.61 nM against AChE and 199.21 ± 50.35 and 409.41 ± 6.86 nM against BChE, respectively.
