Abstract
S-Benzyl-β-N-[3-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxy-phenylallylidene)]dithiocarbazate (HL1), Schiff base of S-benzyl dithiocarbazate, was synthesized by 1:1 condensation between S-benzyl dithiocarbazate and 4-hydroxy-3-methoxy cinnamaldehyde. The nitrogen-sulfur Schiff base (HL1) was characterized by Mass, FT-IR, H1-NMR, Raman, and UV-VIS spectroscopic techniques. Theoretical quantum chemical calculations were performed using DFT in combination with B3LYP exchange correlation functional and 6–311++ G (d, p) basis sets level. The calculated values of chemical potential (μ), HOMO-LUMO energy gap, chemical hardness, softness (S), ionization energy (IE), electron affinity (EA), dipole moment (D) and relative stabilization energy of the compound were 0.14881 eV, 0.12542 eV, 0.06271 eV, 3.37299 eV, −0.21152 eV, −0.08610 eV, 4.4090 Debye and −1753.350 eV respectively. Theoretically calculated parameters like H1-NMR, FT-IR, UV-VIS, Raman, electrostatic potential and HOMO-LUMO energy gap are in good agreement with experimental results. Also, in-vitro cytotoxicity studies were done against two habitually infection causing bacteria strains including gram-positive (S. aureus) and gram-negative (E. coli) for antibacterial activity. The results showed appreciable biological activity and the activity increased with increase in dose.
