Abstract

Three nickel(II) complexes, namely [Ni(BH)3](H2O)(NO3)(ClO4) 1, [Ni(BH)2(NO3)2] 2 and [Ni(BH)(Tren)](ClO4)2 3 (BH = Benzoylhydrazine, Tren = Tris(2-aminoethyl)amine) have been synthesized and characterized by physico-chemical techniques. X-ray crystallographic analysis shows the nickel to be six-coordinated in these complexes. The complexes are efficient catalysts for the dismutation of superoxide in alkaline DMSO-NBT assays. The IC50 values are 74,108 and 105 μM for 1, 2 and 3, respectively.

Graphical Abstract

Three nickel(II) complexes with bidentate ligand viz.; [Ni(BH)3](NO3)(ClO4)(H2O) 1, [Ni(BH)2(NO3)2] 2 and [Ni(BH)(Tren)](ClO4)2 3 have been synthesized and characterized, including crystal structure, (Fig. 1) spectral characterization and electrochemical studies. X-ray crystallographic analysis shows the nickel to be six-coordinated mode in the respective complexes. The molecules of complexes 1 and 2 may stabilize in the crystal lattice due to the presence of π, π-interactions.
