Spectroscopic analyses on interaction of Amantadine-Salicylaldehyde, Amantadine-5-Chloro-Salicylaldehyde and Amantadine-o-Vanillin Schiff-Bases with bovine serum albumin (BSA).

In this work, three Tricyclo [3.3.1.1(3,7)] decane-1-amine (Amantadine) Schiff-Bases, Amantadine-Salicylaldehyde (AS), Amantadine-5-Chloro-Salicylaldehyde (AS-5-C) and Amantadine-o-Vanillin (AS-o-V), were synthesized by direct heating reflux method in ethanol solution and characterized by infrared spectrum and elementary analysis. Fluorescence quenching was used to study the interaction of these Amantadine Schiff-Bases (AS, AS-5-C and AS-o-V) with bovine serum albumin (BSA). According to fluorescence quenching calculations the bimolecular quenching constant (K(q)), apparent quenching constant (K(SV)), effective binding constant (K(A)) and corresponding dissociation constant (K(D)), binding site number (n) and binding distance (r) were obtained. The results show that these Amantadine Schiff-Bases can obviously bind to BSA molecules and the binding strength order is AS
