Four dinuclear bismuth(III) Schiff-base complexes bearing Schiff-base ligands have been synthesized and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, and spectral techniques (FT-IR, NMR and MS). The analytical data reveal the bismuth(III) complexes possess 1:1 metal-ligand ratios. In vitro biological studies have revealed that bismuth(III) complexes displayed much higher antibacterial and antitumor activities than their parent ligands, which involves two gram-negative (S. aureus, B. subtili) and two gram-positive (E. coli, P. aeruginosa) bacteria, and human gastric cancer SNU-16 cells. The power-time curves of S. pombe exposed to tested compounds were detected by bio-microcalorimetry. Some thermokinetic parameters (k, Pt and Q) were derived based on the metabolic power-time curves, and their quantitative relationships with the concentrations (c) were further discussed.

New bismuth (III) complexes with acetophenone-4-methyl-3-thiosemicarbazone (L) and halogens (Cl and Br) in both bridging and terminal positions have been synthesized and structurally characterized using single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The pure complexes (Cl or Br) were found to be highly isostructural, which motivated our attempts to create solid solutions of these complexes. A series of such compounds was prepared using various procedures and stoichiometries.

The discovery and utilization of main-group element catalysts that behave similarly to transition metal (TM) complexes have become increasingly active areas of investigation in recent years. Here, we report a series of Lewis acidic bismuth(III) complexes that allow for the catalytic allylic C(sp)-H functionalization of olefins via an organometallic complexation-assisted deprotonation mechanism to generate products containing new C-C bonds. This heretofore unexplored mode of main-group reactivity was applied to the regioselective functionalization of 1,4-dienes and allylbenzene substrates.

Bismuth(III) complexes have been reported to act as inhibitors of the enzyme urease, ubiquitously present in soils and implicated in the pathogenesis of several microorganisms. The general insolubility of Bi(III) complexes in water at neutral pH, however, is an obstacle to their utilization. In our quest to improve the solubility of Bi(III) complexes, we selected a compound reported to inhibit urease, namely [Bi(HEDTA)]·2HO, and co-crystallized it with (i) racemic DL-histidine to obtain the conglomerate [Bi(HEDTA)(μ-D-His)]·6HO + [Bi(HEDTA)(μ-L-His)]·6HO, (ii) enantiopure L-histidine to yield [Bi(HEDTA)(μ-L-His)]·6HO, and (iii) cytosine to obtain [Bi(HEDTA)]·Cyt·2HO.
