Abstract
Direct crystallization of sulfur-nitrogen containing heterocyclic supramolecule I from acetic acid (solvent free) or in presence of an inert solvent afforded the proton-transfer compound III. The presence of nitrogen and sulfur atoms enhanced the solid-state packing of III to adopt interesting supramolecular interactions such as; S···H, S···N, N···O, O···H, S···H. Compounds I and III inhibited the growth of the Gram positive bacteria, B. subtilis and M. luteus.
Graphical Abstract
The supramolecularity of sulfur-nitrogen containing heterocyclic supramolecule I which crystallized from acetic acid in presence of an inert solvent has been investigated and afforded the proton-transfer compound III. In addition, the antimicrobial activity of compounds I and III has been examined and revealed that both compounds inhibited the growth of the Gram positive bacteria, B. subtilis and M. luteus. Part of compound III crystal structure showing only the cationic fragment. Heteroatoms were only labeled for clarity.
