Binuclear Ni(II) complexes containing ONS donor Schiff base ligands: Preparation, spectral characterization, X-ray crystallography and biological exploration. J Inorg Biochem. 2020 Jul 18;211:111176 Authors: Kalaiarasi G, Dharani S, Rajkumar SRJ, Lynch VM, Prabhakaran R Abstract Four binuclear Ni(II) complexes [[Ni2(H-DEAsal-tsc)2(μ-dppm)]·2Cl (1), [Ni2(DEAsal-mtsc)2(μ-dppm)] (2), [Ni2(DEAsal-etsc)2(μ-dppm)] (3) and [Ni2(DEAsal-ptsc)2(μ-dppm)] (4)] were synthesized from the ligands namely 4(N,N)-diethylaminosalicylaldehyde-4(N)-thiosemicarbazone [H2-DEAsal-tsc] H2L1/4(N,N)-diethylaminosalicylaldehyde-4(N)-methyl thiosemicarbazone [H2-DEAsal-mtsc] H2L2/4(N,N)-diethylaminosalicylaldehyde-4(N)-ethyl thiosemicarbazone [H2-DEAsal-etsc] H2L3/4(N,N)diethylaminosalicylaldehyde-4(N)-phenyl thiosemicarbazone [H2-DEAsal-ptsc] H2L4 and 1,1'-bis(diphenylphosphino)methane (dppm) and characterized by a number of spectro analytical techniques. The molecular structure of complexes [Ni2(H-DEAsal-tsc)2(μ-dppm)]·2Cl (1) and [Ni2(DEAsal-ptsc)2(μ-dppm)] (4) have been confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The analysis indicated that in complex 1, the ligand [H2-DEAsal-tsc] coordinated as monobasic tridentate donor through phenolic oxygen, azomethine nitrogen and thione sulfur atoms. However, in complex 4, the ligand [H2-DEAsal-ptsc] behaved as dibasic tridentate donor with thiolate sulfur coordination. Their ability to bind with Ca...
