Interactions of oxovanadium(IV) and the quinolone family member—ciprofloxacin

Compounds of Antibacterial Agent Ciprofloxacin and Magnesium – Crystal Structures and Molecular Modeling Calculations

“…It has been shown before that weakly bonded lattice water molecules could easily be lost from metal-quinolone complexes already at room temperature. [23][24][25][26][27] The polymeric 2D square grid complex [Mg(cf) 2 ]·2.5H 2 O was isolated in our lab by hydrothermal reaction at neutral conditions (pH = 7) [13] but also earlier in the labs of a Chinese group at basic conditions (pH = 11).…”

Kinetic and mechanistic investigation of the oxidation of the antibacterial agent levofloxacin by permanganate in alkaline medium

“…A method was proposed for determining these antibiotics in biological fluids using a mixed-ligand complex formed by terbium and triphenylphosphine oxide [19]. The interaction of fluoroquinolones with metal ions has attracted considerable interest not only for the development of analytical techniques, but also to provide information about the mechanism of action of the pharmaceutical preparation [20]. Since the metal ions cause fluorescence quenching of the drug, spectrofluorimetric methods for the quantitative determination of the quinolone type drugs have been developed [21] besides titrimetric [22], spectrophotometric [23], electrochemical [24], electrophoretic [25] and chromatographic [26] techniques.…”

New rhenium complexes with ciprofloxacin as useful models for understanding the properties of [99mTc]-ciprofloxacin radiopharmaceutical

“…Thus, in most of these studies, the reported antimicrobial activities are very similar to, or slightly lower than, those of free quinolones. 19,23,54,58 A c c e p t e d m a n u s c r i p t…”
