Abstract

The new ligands 2-(1-pyrazolil)-1,3-thiazine (PzTz), 2-(3,5-dimethyl-1-pyrazolil)-1,3-thiazine (DMPzTz) and 2-(3,5-diphenyl-1-pyrazolil)-1,3-thiazine (DPhPzTz) and the complexes [ZnCl 2(H 2O)(PzTz)] ( 1), [ZnCl 2(DMPzTz)] ( 2) and [ZnCl 2(DPhPzTz)] ( 3) have been isolated and then characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectra and UV–Vis spectroscopy. Besides, the crystal structure of ligands PzTz and DPhPzTz and complexes 1– 3 have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In 1, the geometry around the Zn(II) atom can be considered a highly distorted trigonal bipyramid, with the metallic atom bonded to two chlorine atoms, one water molecule and one bidentate PzTz ligand. In 2 and 3, the environment around the metal ion can be described as a distorted tetrahedron with the zinc atom coordinated to one bidentate organic ligand molecule and two chloro ligands. In addition, the phagocytic function of human neutrophils treated with complexes 1– 3, their organic ligands and ZnCl 2 has been evaluated. The activity of cells enhanced in samples treated with 1, 2 and 3 with respect to the ones to which the inorganic salt, PzTz, DMPzTz or DPhPzTz were added.
