The present study advocates the combined experimental and computational study of metal-based aminothiazole-derived Schiff base ligands. The structure and electronic properties of ligands have been experimentally studied by spectroscopic methods (UV-Vis, FT-IR, H-NMR and C-NMR), mass spectrometry, elemental analysis and theoretically by density function theory (DFT). Computational calculations employing the B3LYP/6-31 + G(d,p) functional of DFT were executed to explore the optimized geometrical structures of ligands along with geometric parameters, molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) surfaces and frontier molecular orbital (FMO) energies.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFA series of sulfonyl hydrazones derived from 3-formylchromone was synthesized and discovered to be effective, non-selective inhibitors of monoamine oxidases (MAO-A and MAO-B). The compounds are easily (synthetically) accessible in high yields, by simple condensation of 4-methylbenzenesulfonohydrazide with different (un)substituted 3-formylchromones. All compounds had IC values in lower micro-molar range (IC = 0.
