1. Introduction

Due to their extensive variety of therapeutic, chemical, and biological action, Schiff base (CH=N-) molecules represent a prominent class of organic chemistry. As bi-, tri-, tetra-, or multi-dentate ligands, Schiff bases function as chelating agents because they include nitrogen, oxygen, or sulphur [1,2,3,4]. The indanone derivatives and their structural analogs are widely employed in agriculture, medicine, and the synthesis of natural products. Indanone derivatives have antimicrobial, antibacterial, antiviral, anticancer, vasodilatation, anticonvulsant, anti-diabetic, antimalarial, anti-inflammatory, the treatment of Alzheimer disease, insecticidal [5,6,7] and activities.
Thio/carbohydrazones are moreover a significant class of synthetic organic chemistry. Pharmaceutical and biological properties like antiviral, anticancer, antituberculosis, antileishmanial, antimicrobial, and antibacterial have been documented for them [8,9,10]. Thiocarbohydrazone chain has an aromatic ring at the hydrazono end, which is thought to play a role in interactions with biomolecules that change biological activity. The isatin moiety was chosen because to its high acidity as an ionizable centre, which makes metal coordination easier, as well as the fact that it preserved the fundamental configuration of the three donor atoms. Schiff bases based on isatin are highly sought-after as antibacterial substances. The majority of infections that are acquired in hospitals and the general public are caused by Gram-positive and Gram-negative microorganisms [11,12,13,14,15]. The effectiveness of the drugs is declining daily as a result of the incorrect, prolonged, and widespread use of antibiotics, which has serious health consequences. The rise in bacterial resistance in recent years has made it a key priority for scientists to find innovative antibacterial drugs [16,17,18,19]. In this paper, new Schiff bases based on 3,3-diphenyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-one and (thio)/carbohydrazone were obtained by reaction of 3,3-diphenyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-one - β -thiocarbohydrazone with isatin in the presence of glacial acetic acid under reflux in ethanol. FT-IR, 1H NMR, and 13C NMR spectroscopic methods and elemental analysis were used to confirm the structures of all compounds. Gramme positive bacteria (3ty7-Staphylococcus), Gramme negative bacteria (3t88-Escherichia coli), and fungi (5k04-Candida albicans) all responded favorably to the compounds’ putative antibacterial properties.

2. Results and discussion

The complexation of hydrazones ligand was generated from the reaction of metal (II) and metal (III) chlorides with synthesized hydrazones ligand in 1:2 molar ratios. The analytical techniques revealed that synthesized hydrazones ligand was bonded to metal ions via the azomethine nitrogen atoms, phenolic oxygen atoms and SH atoms this yields octahedral geometry. To determine the geometry of the complexes and other identifying information, the compounds were analyzed using a variety of spectroscopic and physical approaches (Elemental analyses, X-ray diffraction, UV-Vis, FTIR, and other methods were used to comprehensively characterize each of these complexes), which are in good agreement with the information needed to determine the general composition [M(H2L)2].Cl2(where M = Cu(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Fe(III), Zn(II), Mn(II), and Cd(II). The produced complexes are relatively stable in the solid form at room temperature, insoluble in water, methanol, and ethanol, but only soluble in DMF and DMSO. The metal complexes could not be grown into a single crystal, despite numerous attempts. The [M(H2L)2]Cl2formulae were indicated by the complexes’ molar conductivity values in DMSO.

2.1. 1H NMR

Proton 1NMR spectra of the synthesized thiocarbohydrazonesderivative and their zinc(II) complexes were detected in DMSO- d 6as solvent. For the thiocarbohydrazones ligand 5, the singlet signal of aliphatic proton CH2 of indene derivative was detected at δ= 3.84ppm. The amino group of 3,3-diphenyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-one - β -thiocarbohydrazone was not observed atδ= 4.98ppm. Moreover, the NH peak of isatin ring was observed as a singlet at δ=11.79 ppm.The aryl region’s aromatic proton multiplet signals were detected between δ= 6.93 and 8.05 ppm with a rise in number of proton by 4H of isatine from compound 3. This evidence confirmed the expected outcome of the reaction. The peaks of (NH and SH) of thiocarbohydrazone moiety were detected at as singlet at δ= 11.32and 14.73 ppm , respectively and the intensity of this signals decrease on complexation. This guarantees that the -NH proton will decrease as a result of thio carbohydrazone ligands’ binding to zinc(II) ions, which is made possible through tautomerization via the thione..The aromatic proton signals of the aryl region were observed between δ 6.93-8.05ppm. 13C NMR spectra of H2L1 ligand show the characteristics signalat δ= 47.2, 59.5 of C2 and C3 of indene. The signal of the aromatic region was detected at δ 111.7-147.7ppm. The C=O signal of isatin at δ= 176.6ppm. The characteristic 3 CH = N peaks were detected at δ= 154.1, 156.1 and 163.2 ppm.

2.2. Molecular modeling

A theoretical tool for molecular modelling as well as the geometrical shape of the hydrazones ligand was created using the Gaussian09 programme. The diazene carbohydrazonothioic acid ligands electronic structure can be determined by looking at the border orbital energy gap between ELUMO and EHOMO [20,21,22,23]. According to illustrations of the free diazene carbohydrazonothioic acid ligands molecular orbital’s, the donor atoms—nitrogen of hydrazine, sulphur of HS group, and oxygen of OH group—that are employed to donate to metal ion acceptors were predominantly concentrated on the LUMO, HOMO and charge distribution (Figure 1).
Using previously published equations, values for chemical potential (Pi), global softness (S), global electrophilicity index (ω), global hardness (η), absolute softness (S), and electronegativity (χ) values were calculated using previously published equations (Table 1) [24]. The most significant marker of various sites’ toxicity and reactivity is. The most important measure, which shows the toxicity and reactivity of various sites, is. Although the recommended diazene ligands are electrophilic, the hydrazones ligand system is picking up extra negative charge from the environment. The reactivity and molecular stability are determined using the parameters and S. The global measures of hardness and softness are at odds with one another [25].
The free hydrazones ligand was revealed to have the following properties following the determination of all the parameters (Table 1). The soft property of the free ligand was used to infer the flexible reactions to metal ions. The figures show that the chemical can take electrons from its surroundings and lower its energy (Figure 2).

2.2.1. Atomic charges, bond lengths and bond angles

Quantum mechanical computation is built on atomic charge calculations [26,27]. With optimised geometry, charges population analysis was used to determine the overall atomic charge, and the results are displayed in the supplemental material (Supplementary Tables S1–S4). The diazene ligand has three promising atoms: nitrogen, oxygen, and sulphur. This shows that the more active site, which promises to produce chelation, is brought on by a high electron density, particularly in the area surrounding hydrazones. The hydrazones ligand structure’s numbering scheme was depicted in Figure 3. It can be shown that the melting temperatures of nitrogen, oxygen, and sulphur atoms are greater than those of other atoms of a similar size, indicating that these atoms may be able to form coordination compounds by chelating with metal atoms. The ideal coordination sites of the diazene ligand were predicted using the Mulliken method and molecular electrostatic potential analysis. They all suggest that the link is fragile and that it will be the first to break (Supplementary Tables S1 and S2). This notion was compatible with the outcomes of mass fragmentation and heat deterioration, and it added to the earlier discussion.

2.3. Characterization of metal complexes

Figure 3 showed the numbering of the hydrazones ligand structure. We can demonstrate that the melting points of nitrogen, oxygen, and sulphur atoms are higher than those of other atoms of a similar size, suggesting that these atoms may be able to chelates with metal atoms to produce coordination compounds. The ideal coordination sites of the diazene ligand were predicted using the Mulliken method and molecular electrostatic potential analysis. All of them (Supplementary Tables S1–S4) show how fragile the relationship is and hint that it will be the first to break. This notion was compatible with the outcomes of mass fragmentation and heat deterioration, and it added to the earlier discussion [28].

2.4. IR spectral studies.

The IR spectrum of hydrazones ligand showed bands at 3176, 1372, 1270, 685, 1239, 1423, 1642, 1481 and 3059 cm-1 due to ν(OH), in-plane bending δ(OH), ν(C-O),δ(OH), ν(C=S), ν(C-S), ν(C=N), ν(N=N) and ν(N-H), respectively. The ν(OH), in-plane bending δ(OH), ν(C-O),δ(OH) vibrations in the complexes are shifted to lower frequencies and found at 3129-3213, 1320-1362, 1260-1298 and 653-675 cm-1 which indicated that phenolic oxygen was coordinated with metal ions without proton displacement. This positive shift, which shows coordination of the phenolic oxygen [29], may be explained by the drift of oxygen’s electron density to the metal ion, which increases the ionic character of the (C-O) bond and raises the frequency of the υ (C-O) vibration. [30].The bands at 1239 and 123 cm-1 which can be assigned to ν(C=S) and ν(C-S) of the ligand and it is also shifted to lower wave number after complexation indicating coordination of ligand sulfur atom to metal ions.
The free ν(N=N) is generally observed at ~ 1481cm-1. The observed values are seen to have undergone a positive shift by 3–9 cm-1 in all its complexes, due to participation of nitrogen in coordination to metal ions. The free ν(NH) is viewed at 3059 cm-1 in the ligand IR spectrum and its shift in metal complexes (3052-3055 cm-1) was due to intermolecular (O-H…..O) or intramolecular hydrogen bonding (OH…..N)/(O-H…O). A medium intensity band at 1642 cm-1 in this ligand assignable to υ(C=N) is seen to have undergone a positive shift by 13–25 cm-1 in all its complexes, due to change in carbon skeleton of the ligand due to chelates formation and this explain its non participation in coordination.
New bands at 410-426, 448-450, and 510 - 545 cm-1 designated as v (M-S), (M-N), and (M-O) modes, respectively, further illustrate the coordination of sulphur, nitrogen, and oxygen. The M-O band typically occurs in the higher frequency range and is typically sharper and stronger than the M-N band due to the bigger dipole moment change in the M-O band’s vibration compared to that of the M-N band. The emergence of non ligand bands in the range of 960-989 cm-1 that might be attributed to the rocking mode of coordinated water [31,32,33] further supports the existence of coordinated water. Thermal analysis demonstrated the presence of coordinated water in each of these complexes and presence of lattice water.

2.5. Molar conductivity measurements

Conductivity measurements are used to assess whether counter ions are present inside or outside the coordination sphere. This process was used to gauge how ionized the produced complexes were. When counter ions are present outside of the coordination sphere, the value increases, and vice versa. At room temperature, the molar conductance of the metal complexes in DMF was measured (1x10-3 M). The reported conductivity values of 109.2, 105.9, 165.7, 102.2, 106.7, 107.9 and 105.7Ω-1cm2mol-1 for Co(II), Ni(II), Fe(III), Cu(II), Cd(II), Zn(II), and Mn(II) complexes, respectively, may be explained by the fact that the complexes were ionic or electrolytic in nature. All the complexes were electrolytes according to the measured molar conductivity values as the results of the existence of halogens outside the coordination sphere [34].

2.6. Electronic spectra and magnetic moment measurements

Three bands can be seen in the Cu(II) complex: a ligand-metal charge transfer band (21,789 cm-1) and a d-d band (16,740 cm-1). The distorted octahedral geometry of the copper complex is supported by both the magnetic moment value of 1.86 B.M. and the 2Eg→2T2g transition that may be the cause of the d-d band. Three bands identified by the Co(II) complex’s electronic spectral data at 24,980, 15,766 and 13,455 cm-1 are assigned to 4T1g(F)→4T2g(F) (ν1),4T1g(F)→4A2g(F) (ν2), and4T1g(F)→4T1g(F) (ν3) transitions, respectively suggesting that there is an octahedral geometry around Co(II) ion, which is also supported by its magnetic moment value 4.72B.M.[35]
Three d-d bands are present in the Ni(II) complex at 21,465, 18,634, and 12,324 cm-1 as a result of the transitions 3A2g(F)→3T2g(F), 3A2g(F)→3T1g(F), and 3A2g(F)→3T1g(P), respectively. The octahedral geometry of transitions is supported by the magnetic moment value of 3.37B.M.The diffused reflectance spectrum of the paramagnetic (5.53 B.M) Fe(III) complex was ascribed to the four peaks at 22,377, 18,977, 15,699 and 13,640cm-1 were assigned to the 6A1→4T1(G), 6A1→4T2(G), 6A1→4A1,4E (G), and 6A1→4T2(D)transitions, respectively, indicating an octahedral geometry.[36]
Three spin-allowed bands were present in the electronic spectrum of the Mn(II) complex, which correspond to the octahedral geometry at 16,455 cm-1(6A1g→4T1g (4G)(ν1)], 17,788cm-1 (6A1g→4T2g (G)(ν2)], and 24,768 cm-1(6A1g→4Eg, 4T1g→4Pg(ν3)] [16]. Five unpaired electrons are represented by the measured magnetic moment of the Mn(II) complex, which is 5.44 B.M., indicating a high spin octahedral environment.[37]
The d shell is full and not available for bonding in Cd(II) and Zn(II) complexes. Due to the d electrons’ absence from metallic bonding, the metal is relatively soft when combined with other transition metals. The full d shell of the Cd(II) and Zn(II) complex ions prevents the stabilizing impact of the ligand field. Therefore, only the factors of size, electrostatic forces, and covalent bonding forces are taken into account when determining the stereochemistry of its complex. Based on the other information presented, octahedral geometry has been suggested for it. [37].

2.7. Mass spectral study

To get the mass spectra of metal complexes, fragmentation was used. In general, significant fragments connected to breakdown products as well as the MS of the ligand and its complexes were obtained. The molecular weight of this ligand is 501.60 g/mol. The peak at 501 m/z in the spectra, which was assigned to [M]+ and confirmed to be a diazene moiety C30H23N5OS , was present. The complexes moieties C60H46Cl2CoN10O2S2, C60H46Cl2NiN10O2S2, C60H46Cl3FeN10O2S2, C60H46Cl2CuN10O2S2, C60H46Cl2CdN10O2S2, C60H46Cl2ZnN10O2S2and C60H46Cl2MnN10O2S2had a peak at m/z (amu) 1130 (1131.20 g/mol), 1129 (1130.20 g/mol), 1163 (1163.17 g/mol), 1136 (1135.19 g/mol), 1187 (1186.17 g/mol), 1135 (1136.19 g/mol) and 1128 (1127.20 g/mol) which, in turn, corresponds to the complex moieties in the spectra of the relevant complexes of Co(II), Ni(II), Fe(III), Cu(II), Cd(II), Zn(II), and Mn(II). A peak at m/z 501, 350, 301, 235, 160, 133, and 78, respectively, indicated the ligand moiety. In Scheme 2, fragmentation paths and piece structural assignments are suggested.

Also, in second step at temperature ranges 280-570 °C and 250-560°C due to the leave of C18H12N5 S molecule (found 28.64%; calc. 28.80%) and C24H15N5S (found 35.72%; calc. 36.05%)respectively.

(calcd. 90.03%, 94.00% and 91.32%) respectively Table 2.

2.9. SEM analysis

The surface morphology of the hydrazones ligands and the related metal complexes were examined using SEM analysis. The Cu(II) and Fe(III) complex and hydrazones ligand have a distinct visual appearance in the SEM image (Figure 4) due to the crystal aggregate that builds up on the thin films and is caused by the minimal fluctuation in the ligand and metals complex particle size and shape. SEM images provide the ligand had an irregular texture and little rock-like bits, whereas metal complexes have a rock-like appearance because the ligand harmonises with the metal ions and closes the gap on the outer surface. The ligands surface morphology is completely different from the surface morphology of metal complexes, which clearly shows the ligands binding to metal ions. [38].

2.10. Molecular Docking

With auto Dock, you can see test results up close and discuss and demonstrate the biological benefits of ligands. G+ bacteria (3ty7-Staphylococcus), G- bacteria (3t88-Escherichia coli), and Fungi (5k04 - Candida albicans) are examples of host organisms that can be used to attach ligands (guests). Figure 5, Figure 6 and Figure 7 shown that HB plots can exhibit a high interaction with all receptors and produce results that are comparable. All proteins have easily observable inter-hydrogen bonds, calculations showed. To visualize the interactions between docking molecules, two- and three-dimensional images can be used. Using two- and three-dimensional graphics, the mechanism of interaction within docking molecules may be demonstrated. (Figure 5, Figure 6 and Figure 7).
The interaction between the ligand and the amino acids of the protein was shown to be mostly mediated in the following G+ bacteria by hydrogen bonding.
For Gram positive bacteria (3ty7-Staphylococcus), An amino acid in the protein reacted with the ligand to cause the H-bond reaction:3ty7-correct-A-h//A/MET`106/OD1– with H bond length 3.3 Ao, 3ty7-correct-A-h//A/GLU`432/O– with hydrogen bond length 2.4 Ao, 3ty7-correct-A-h//A/TYR`410/OD2– with hydrogen bond length 3.4 Ao, 3ty7-correct-A-h//A/THR`280/OD2– with H bond length 3.3 Ao, 3ty7-correct-A-h//A/CYS`279/O– with hydrogen bond length 2.1 Ao, 3ty7-correct-A-h//A/PHR`148/OD2– with H bond length 3.2 Ao and 3ty7-correct-A-h//A/VAL`278/OD2– with H bond length 2.7 Ao, with binding energy = −6.2 kcal mol−1(Figure 5, Figure 6 and Figure 7).

2.11. Antimicrobial activity of hydrazones ligand and its metal complexes

Hydrazone ligands’ in vitro antibacterial efficacy against a few bacteria and fungi has been assessed. According to the current study, the heteroatom group’s chelating properties, the overlap of the metal ion and ligand with donor groups, and the complexes’ passage through lipid membranes of cells to inhibit microbial enzymes are all attributed to this activity. The presence of organic bulks also contributes to this activity [39]. In this research, we applied the hydrazones ligands to some species of bacteria like Streptococcus mutans, Staphylococcus aureus as G+ bacteria Escherichia coli, Klebsiellapneumoniae and Pseudomonas sp. as G- bacteria and some species of fungi as Aspergillus nigerand Candida albicans as Fungi and the results were shown in Figure 8.

3.5. Spectrophotometric studies

Within the wavelength range from 200 to 700 nm for 1 × 10-4 M solutions of the free ligand and metal complexes, the absorption spectra were recorded.

3.6. Molecular docking

Both Auto Dock 4.2 and docking calculations with the ligand (designed drug) atoms subjected to Gasteiger partial charges were used. Calculations of the ligand-protein pattern were done. Clarifying rotatable bonds and connecting nonpolar hydrogen atoms. After the introduction of fundamental hydrogen atoms, Kollmanunified atom type charges and solvation parameters were applied using the Auto Dock tools [45,46,47].The Auto Dock parameter set and the distance-dependent dielectric functions were used to calculate the van der Waals and electrostatic terms, respectively. The Lamarckian genetic algorithm and the Solis and Wets local search technique were used to simulate docking. The initial position, orientation, and torsions of the ligand molecule were also defined.

3.7. Biological activity

Agar disc diffusion method can be used to predict therapeutic outcomes using antimicrobial susceptibility testing for novel compounds as antimicrobials [48]. The evaluated substances were examined for their in vitro antibacterial activity using the agar disc diffusion assay, which, in accordance with the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI), is one of the most widely, used manual AST procedures in clinical microbiology laboratories. Simpleness, reproducibility, ease of customizing antimicrobial discs, and the ability to utilise the test as a screening test for a variety of bacterial isolates are the key benefits. Mueller-Hinton agar plates are inoculated with a standardized inoculums of the tested bacterial species; Bacillus subtilis (ATCC 6633), Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 6538), and Escherichia coli (ATCC 8739), as G-positive but Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ATCC 9027), as G-negative bacterial standard isolates Aspergillus nigar and C. albicans are examples of fungi creatures. Each disc was placed on the inoculated agar surface using commercially prepared paper discs (about 6 mm in diameter) impregnated with 10 µl of the required concentration of the tested drug. According to appropriate guidelines, agar plates are incubated for 16–24 hours at 35–37°C (CLSI2018a; EUCAST 2019b).The diameter of each compound-impregnated disc is then measured in millimeters, and the result also takes into account the diameter of the clear inhibition zones surrounding each disc. This is done by hand while holding a ruler against the back of the inverted agar plate [49]. Gentamycin, ampicillin, and nystatin were utilized as reference drugs standard for Gram-positive, Gram-negative, and fungal antibacterial activities, whereas DMSO was employed as negative control. The outcomes of all the inoculation plates were examined in a table after 35°C incubation. The MIC values have an inverse relationship with the inhibitory zone. The lower the antimicrobial drug concentration needed to stop the growth, the greater the zone of growth inhibition. However, it is important to consider a compound’s diffusibility [49].

3.8. Computational methodology

The ideal structural geometry of hydrazones ligand was computed with Gaussian09 software utilizing the Ground state, DFT, B3LYP, and 3-21G. The molecular visualization programme Gauss View was used to display Gaussian files [50]. The HOMO-LUMO energies used to compute the DFT/B3LYP quantum chemical parameters were in agreement with the numerical pattern depicted in the view of compounds in the gas phase. Important bond lengths, bond angles, dihedral angles, charges, and excitation energy for coordinating groups were also computed in optimised structures.

4. Conclusion

The ligand was investigated physic chemically, spectroscopically, and thermally, as well as its complexes with transition metals. The compounds’ octahedral geometry was identified using spectroscopic and elemental data. The measured molar conductivity values indicate that the counter chloride ions were found outside of the coordination sphere. Additionally, after examining each molecule’s antibacterial characteristics, the [Co(HL)(H 2 O) 2]Cl 2 and [Ni(HL)(H 2 O) 2]Cl 2 combination was shown to be the most effective antibacterial compound. A wide variety of ligand activity toward various types of proteins with modest binding was found in the findings of ligand docking studies.
