Description
Summary:Complexes [Bi(2Fo4Ph)Cl2] (1), [Bi(2Ac4Ph)Cl2] (2), [Bi(2Bz4Ph)Cl2] (3), [Bi(H2Gy3DH)Cl3] (4), [Bi(H2Gy4Et)(OH)2Cl] (5), and [Bi(H2Gy4Ph)Cl3] (6) were prepared with pyridine‐2‐carbaldehyde 4‐phenylthiosemicarbazone (H2Fo4Ph), 1‐(pyridin‐2‐yl)ethanone 4‐phenylthiosemicarbazone (H2Ac4Ph), phenyl(pyridin‐2‐yl)methanone 4‐phenylthiosemicarbazone (H2Bz4Ph), as well as with glyoxaldehyde bis(thiosemicarbazone) (H2Gy4DH) and its 4‐Et (H2Gy4Et) and 4‐Ph (H2Gy4Ph) derivatives. The complexes exhibited antibacterial activities against Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Enterococcus faecalis, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Coordination to BiIII proved to be an effective strategy to increase the antibacterial activity of the thiosemicarbazones and bis(thiosemicarbazones).
