Synthesis, characterization, antimicrobial and antitumor reactivity of new palladium(II) complexes with methionine and tryptophane coumarine derivatives

Abstract

© 2017 Elsevier B.V. In reaction of 3-acetyl-4-hydroxy coumarine with methionine methyl ester hydrochloride and tryptophane methyl ester hydrochloride the corresponding enamine ligands were obtained. Palladium (II) complexes were prepared in reaction of potassium-tetrachloridopalladate (II) and corresponding enamine. All compounds were characterized by microanalysis, infrared, 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. In vitro antitumor activity of the mentioned ligands and corresponding palladium (II) complexes, as well as me-Gly and me-Val ligands and [Pd (me-Gly)]Cl and [Pd (me-Val)2] complexes was determined by MTT assay against two leukemia cell lines (JVM-13 and MOLT-4) and against primary leukemic cells isolated from chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) patients. Antimicrobial activity of the tested compound was evaluated by determining the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum microbicidal concentration (MMC) against three reference bacterial strains: E. faecalis, P. aeruginosa, S. aureus and one clinical isolate of yeast: Candida spp.
