Abstract
In the title compound, [Ni(C13H18NO3)2(C12H8N2)], the NiII cation shows a distorted octa-hedral coordination environment. It is formed by two N atoms from the phenanthroline ligand, as well as two N and two O atoms belonging to two 2-[(2-hy-droxy-benz-yl)amino]-4-methyl-penta-noate ligands. Complex mol-ecules are connected into layers propagating along the ab plane via hydrogen bonds formed by O atoms of carboxyl-ate and phenoxide groups, which are further connected into a three-dimensional motif.
Highlights
The design and synthesis of metal complexes have attracted considerable attention for their potential applications in catalysis, magnetism, materials science and pharmaceutical chemistry (Che & Siu, 2010)
Metal complexes of 1,10-phenanthroline and its derivatives are of increasing interest because of their versatile roles in many fields, such as analytical chemistry (Chalk & Tyson, 1994), catalysis (Samnani et al, 1996), electrochemical polymerization (Bachas et al, 1997) and biochemistry (Sammes & Yahioglu, 1994). 1,10-Phenanthroline is a bidentate chelating ligand with notable coordination ability for transition metal cations
Amino acid–metallic ion interactions are found to be responsible for enzymatic activity and the stability of protein structures (Dinelli et al, 2010)
Summary
The design and synthesis of metal complexes have attracted considerable attention for their potential applications in catalysis, magnetism, materials science and pharmaceutical chemistry (Che & Siu, 2010). DNA under physiological conditions (An et al, 2006) and binuclear complexes containing bipyridyl or phenanthroline units in their structure show antiviral activity, as well as inhibition of proviral DNA synthesis (Rajendiran et al, 2007). Metal complexes of 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) and its derivatives are of increasing interest because of their versatile roles in many fields, such as analytical chemistry (Chalk & Tyson, 1994), catalysis (Samnani et al, 1996), electrochemical polymerization (Bachas et al, 1997) and biochemistry (Sammes & Yahioglu, 1994). Over the last few decades, the complex formation of transition metal ions with amino acids has been studied extensively (Auclair et al, 1984). With the discovery of the biological importance of nickel, it is essential to study its complex formation with amino acids in order to.
