Synthesis, characterization, and antimicrobial properties of new polystyrene‐bound Schiff bases and their some complexes

Abstract

This study investigated the antimicrobial properties of polymer‐bound Schiff bases and their Cu(II) and Ni(II) complexes. Novel polystyrene oligomer‐bound Schiff bases (FMPS‐Sch) were prepared from (4‐formyl‐3‐methoxyphenoxymethyl)polystyrene (FMPS) with cycloalkylaminothiophene derivatives and their Cu(II) and Ni(II) complexes have been synthesized and characterized. All these substances have been examined for antibacterial activity against pathogenic strains; Bacillus cereus, Listeria monocytogenes, Pseudomonas putida, Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhi H, Brucella abortus, Shigella dysenteria type 10, Micrococcu.luteus and antifungal activity against Candida albicans. Most of the studied compounds were found effective against bacteria studied and yeast. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2012

Novel polymeric microspheres: Synthesis, enzyme immobilization, antimutagenic activity, and antimicrobial evaluation against pathogenic microorganisms

“…The temperature changes in the TGA curves were above 100°C. Accordingly, it can be concluded that all polymeric microspheres do not contain crystal water …”

“…The antibacterial and antifungal activities of the polymeric microspheres including azomethine ( 1a ‐ 1c and 2a ‐ 2c ) were studied by the well‐diffusion method against Bacillus cereus sp., Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 25923), Staphylococcus epidermis (ATCC 12228), Micrococcus luteus (ATCC 93419), Listeria monocytogenes 4b (ATCC 19115), Salmonella typhi H (NCTC 901.8394), Brucella abortus (RSKK‐03026), Escherichia coli (ATCC 1230), Klebsiella pneumonia (ATCC 27853), Proteus vulgaris (RSKK 96026), and Candida albicans (Y‐1200‐NIH) . In this screening, DMF was used as solvent control.…”

A polydentate ligand based on 2,2’-dipyridylamine unit linked benzo-15-crown-5; alkali and transition metal complexes; photoresponsive ligand; antimicrobial evaluation against pathogenic microorganisms

“…Systemic fungal infections (including C. albicans) have emerged as significant causes of mortality and morbidity in immuno compromised patients (organ or ligament transplantation, cancer chemotherapy, adjuvants) [41,42]. All the compounds showed much inhibition activity against this yeast (Table 5, Fig.…”

Determination of antimicrobial and antimutagenic properties of some Schiff bases

“…Schiff bases are known as electron-donating groups presence of nitrogen atom in which provide to form complexes with metals and also in many enzymatic reaction appear as an intermediate product (Metzler et al 1954, Snell & Jenkins 1959, Cordes & Jencks 1962. Recently, several studies have demonstrated that Schiff bases have biological activities such as antimutagenic, antibacterial (Nartop et al 2012, Sarı et al 2013). However, antimutagenic and antibacterial effects of these compounds has not been reported up to the present.…”
