    The goal of this study is to synthesize, determine the structure, and examine the antimicrobial properties of novel Cu(II) and Au(III) complexes of 2,4-dithiouracil and its derivatives. These complexes were obtained by mixing aqueous solutions of the corresponding metal salts with the ligand dissolved in DMSO and aqueous NaOH, using a metal-to-ligand ratio of 1:4:2. The structures of the new compounds were analyzed by melting point determination, microwave plasma atomic emission spectrometry (MP-AES) for Cu and Au, inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) for S, attenuated total reflection (ATR), solution and solid-state NMR, and Raman spectroscopy. The data for 2,4-dithiouracil obtained from the 1H NMR, 13C NMR, distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer spectrum (DEPT-135), proton–proton homonuclear correlation spectrum (1H-1H COSY), long-range 1H-13C heteronuclear multiple bond correlation experiment (HMBC), and heteronuclear single quantum coherence spectra (HSQC) aided the interpretation of the NMR data for the gold and copper complexes. Furthermore, the antimicrobial effect of the free ligands and their complexes was assessed against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, as well as yeasts.

    Synthesis and Antibacterial Studies of a New Au(III) Complex with 6-Methyl-2-Thioxo-2,3-Dihydropyrimidin-4(1H)-One
    (2024-06-01) Marinova P.; Burdzhiev N.; Blazheva D.; Slavchev A.
    This article describes the synthesis of a new metal complex using 6-methyl-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydropyrimidin-4(1H)-one. The compound was analyzed using several methods, including determining its melting point and employing UV-Vis, IR, ATR, 1H NMR, HSQC, and Raman spectroscopy for the free ligand. The metal complex was formed by combining aqueous solutions of metal salts with the ligand dissolved in DMSO and water, along with NaOH in a metal-to-ligand-to-base ratio of 1:4:2. The NMR signals of the ligand were assigned using 1H-1H COSY, DEPT-135, HMBC, and HMQC spectra. Furthermore, the compound’s antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, as well as yeasts, was assessed.

    Synthesis, Characterization, and Antibacterial Studies of New Cu(II) and Pd(II) Complexes with 6-Methyl-2-Thiouracil and 6-Propyl-2-Thiouracil
    (2023-12-01) Marinova P.; Hristov M.; Tsoneva S.; Burdzhiev N.; Blazheva D.; Slavchev A.; Varbanova E.; Penchev P.
    The aim of the present study is to synthesize new metal complexes of 6-methyl-2-thiouracil and 6-propyl-2-thiouracil, elucidate their structures, and investigate their biological properties. All metal complexes were obtained after mixing water solutions of the corresponding metal salts and the ligand dissolved in DMSO and water solutions of NaOH in a metal-to-ligand ratio of 1:4:2. The structures of the new compounds are discussed based on melting point analysis (MP-AES) for Cu and Pd, UV-Vis, IR, ATR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and Raman spectroscopy. The interpretation of complex spectra is assisted by the data for 6-methyl-2-thiouracil and 6-propyl-2-thiouracil obtained from 1H-1H COSY, DEPT-135, HMBC and HMQC spectra. In addition, the antimicrobial activity of these complexes and the free ligands are assessed against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, as well as yeasts. In general, the addition of metal ions improved the antimicrobial activity of both 6-methyl-2-thiouracil and 6-propyl-2-thiouracil. The Cu(II) complex with 6-methyl-2-thiouracil and the Pd(II) complex with 6-propyl-2-thiouracil exhibited the highest activity against the test microorganisms.
