Abstract

Selective and effective antimicrobial activities against Gram-positive bacteria (B. subtilis and/or S. aureus) were found in 2-coordinate gold(I)-PPh(3) complexes with AuSP and AuNP cores, i.e. [Au(L)(PPh(3))] (HL=2-H(2)mna [H(2)mna=mercaptonicotinic acid] 3, D-H(2)pen [H(2)pen=penicillamine] 4, D,L-H(2)pen 5, 4-H(2)mba [H(2)mba=mercaptobenzoic acid] 8, Hpz [Hpz=pyrazole] 9, Him [Him=imidazole] 10, 1,2,3-Htriz [Htriz=triazole] 11, 1,2,4-Htriz 12, Htetz [Htetz=tetrazole] 13), whereas no activity was observed in 2-coordinate AuSP core complexes [Au(2-Hmba)(PPh(3))] 6 and [Au(3-Hmba)(PPh(3))] 7. The two novel AuSP core complexes, [Au(2-Hmpa)(PPh(3))] [H(2)mpa=mercaptopropionic acid] 1 and [Au(6-Hmna)(PPh(3))] 2, were prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, TG/DTA, and ((31)P, 1H and 13C) NMR spectroscopy. The crystal structures of 1 and 2 were determined as a supramolecular arrangement of the 2-coordinate AuSP core. Both 1 and 2 significantly showed antibacterial activities. As a model reaction of phosphinegold (I) complexes with the cysteine residue in the biological ligands, we examined if the ligand exchange reactions of the aromatic anions L(1)(-) in [Au(L(1))(PPh(3))] (HL(1)=6-H(2)mna 2, 2-H(2)mna 3, 2-H(2)mb...Continue Reading
