Ternary copper complexes [Cu(phen)(L-val)U)]
1 and [Cu(bpy)(L-val)U)] 2 (phen - 1,10-phenanthroline bpy -
2,2’-bipyridyl, L-val - L-valine and U - Urea), have been
synthesized and characterized by CHN analysis, electronic
absorption, infrared, and electron paramagnetic resonance spectral
studies. They have been tested for their in vitro DNA binding
activities by the spectroscopic methods such as ultraviolet-visible
spectral studies, emission spectral studies, viscosity, and cyclic
voltammetry measurement. The antibacterial and antifungal studies
suggested that complexes possess potential biological activities. |
