Synthesis, characterization and biological activities of 3-methylbenzyl 2-(6-methyl pyridin-2-ylmethylene)hydrazine carbodithioate and its transition metal complexes

A tridentate nitrogen-sulfur Schiff base, 3-methylbenzyl 2-(6-methylpyridin-2-ylmethylene)hydrazine carbodithioate (6mpyS3M), was synthesized by condensation of 6-methylpyridine-2-aldehyde with S-3-methylbenzyldithiocarbazate. It crystallized in space group P 21/n. It displayed intermolecular N–H...

QD Chemistry A tridentate nitrogen-sulfur Schiff base, 3-methylbenzyl 2-(6-methylpyridin-2-ylmethylene)hydrazine carbodithioate (6mpyS3M), was synthesized by condensation of 6-methylpyridine-2-aldehyde with S-3-methylbenzyldithiocarbazate.

Its metal complexes showed high selectivity with Cu(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II) complexes strongly active against only one of the cancer cell lines, whereas the Cd(II) complex was strongly active only against the other. Only Cu(II) and Cd(II)complexes were active against some of the bacteria.
