Abstract
Some mixed 1,3-dithia-2-arsacyclopentane derivatives with oxygen and sulfur donor ligands have been synthesized by the reaction of 2-chloro-1,3-dithia-2-arsacyclopentane and oxygen and sulfur donor ligands (benzoic acid, thiobenzoic acid, sodium acetate, thioacetic acid, phenol, thiophenol, sodium salicylate, and thioglycolic acid) in equimolar ratio (1:1) in refluxing anhydrous benzene solution. These white or yellow solids/liquids derivatives have been characterized by melting points, molecular weights, elemental analyses (C, H, S, and As), and spectroscopic [UV, IR as well as NMR (1H and 13C)] studies. Tentative structures are proposed on the basis of the spectroscopic results. The free ligands and the corresponding arsenic compounds exhibited good activities as antibacterial and antifungal agents on some selected bacterial and fungal strains. Chloroamphenicol and terbinafin were used as standards for comparison.Supplemental materials are available for this article.
