Metal complexes were prepared by the reaction of thiosemicarbazone with CuCl2, NiCl2, CoCl2, Cu(OAc)2, Ni(OAc)2, and Co(OAc)2. The thiosemicarbazone coordinates to metal through the thionic sulfur and the azomethine nitrogen. The thiosemicarbazone was obtained by the thiosemicarbazide with 3-acetyl-2,5-dimethylthiophene. The identities of these compounds were elucidated by IR, (1)H, (13)C-NMR, ...

Advers biological activities of Thiosemicarbazone (TSC) and Schiff base (SB) derivatives have been widely studied in rats and in other animal species using different doses, times and routes of administration. To date, no attempt has been made to study alterations occurring in the amino acid profile in the effects of the thiosemicarbazone derivative and its metal complexes on the rats. At this s...

The tumor-inhibitory jxitency of combinations of the cupric chelate of kethoxal bis(thiosemicarbazone) [Cu(II)KTS] with several compounds that cause inhibition of the synthesis of DNA by different biochemical mechanisms was assessed in Sarcoma 180 ascites cells. Cu(II)KTS prolonged the survival time of tumor-bearing mice, whereas neither cupric chloride, copper stéarate,nor kethoxal bis(thiose...

Reaction of salicylaldehyde thiosemicarbazone (L), 2-hydroxyacetophenone thiosemicarbazone (L) and 2-hydroxynapthaldehyde thiosemicarbazone (L) with [Ru(dmso)4Cl2] affords a family of three dimeric complexes (1), (2) and (3) respectively. Crystal structure of the complex (3) has been determined. In these complexes, each monomeric unit consists of one ruthenium center and two thiosemicarbazone l...

Herpes simplex and vaccinia viruses and adenovirus types 1, 2, 5, and 7 were tested by plaque suppression methods for sensitivity to halogenated deoxyuridines (5-iodo-, 5-bromo-, 5-chloro-, and 5-fluoro-), cytosine arabinoside, isatin-beta-thiosemicarbazone, and N-methylisatin-beta-thiosemicarbazone. After incubation for 12 days in HeLa cell cultures, vaccinia virus plaques were still readily s...

A new series of PdII complexes derived from thiosemicarbazone has been synthesized. The synthesized PdII complexes have been characterized on the basis of elemental analyses, FT-IR, ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR, UV/VIS, and thermal studies. A square-planar geometry has been assigned around PdII ions on the basis of results obtained from UV/VIS studies. The thiosemicarbazone ligand and its PdII complexes hav...

A series of new thiosemicarbazones derived from natural diterpene kaurenoic acid were synthesized and tested against the epimastigote forms of Trypanosoma cruzi to evaluate their antitrypanosomal potential. Seven of the synthesized thiosemicarbazones were more active than kaurenoic acid with IC₅₀ values between 2-24.0 mM. The o-nitro-benzaldehyde-thiosemicarbazone derivative was the most active...

Four ruthenium(II) complexes of the type [RuCl(CO)(py)(PPh3)L] (L= thiosemicarbazone ligand) have been synthesized and the structural features were determined by various physico-chemical and spectral techniques. The thiosemicarbazone ligands act as bidentate, monobasic chelating ligands with S and N as the donor sites and are preferably found in thiol form in all the complexes studied. In order...

The current approach involves the kinetic investigation of Thiobenzamide (TB) and cyclohexanone thiosemicarbazone (CTSC) in solution with 3-chloroacetylacetone(3-CAA). study revealed a second-order rate constant respect to both reactants, thioamide an α-halo carbonyl compound. energy activation (Ea) was found be Ea 48.8176 kJ/mol/K for thiobenzamide 33.08692157 Cyclohexanone thiosemicarbazone. ...
