A novel pyrene-imidazole based Schiff base condensate, 2-(2-(pyren-1-ylmethylene)hydrazineyl)-4,5-dihydro 1H-imidazole hydrobromide monohydrate (PI), has been synthesized. PI has been comprehensively characterised on the basis of elemental analysis, electrical conductivity measurement and...
Two novel copper(II) complexes, [Cu(L)(Cl) 2 ](H 2 O) (1) and [Cu(L)(N 3 ) 2 ] (2), have been synthesized from a morpholine-based N,N,N donor tridentate Schiff base ligand, (E)-N-(2-morpholinoethyl)-1-phenyl-1-(pyridin-2-yl)methanimine (L). Ligand (L) and its stabilized complexes, 1 and 2, have been comprehensively characterized by different physical and spectroscopic techniques. Solidstate single-crystal X-ray structures of both 1 and 2 have been determined. Powder X-ray diffraction studies on the bulk samples of 1 and 2 have been executed to demonstrate that the synthesized bulk materials retain their solidphase purity as that exists in the single crystals. Cyclic voltammetric experiments have been done to demonstrate the redox behaviour of 1 and 2. UV-vis spectra of the copper(II) complexes with variation in time were accrued to probe that both 1 and 2 retain their stability in solution. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) has been performed to collate the thermal stability of 1 along with its possible thermal degradation behaviour. Room temperature magnetic moments of 1 and 2 have been determined. Cytotoxic activity of 1 and 2 has been screened against non-small human lung cancer cell, A549.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
