Synthesis, Structural Characterization and Antimicrobial Activity of a Novel Cobalt(II) Complex Based on 3-Methyl-1-Phenyl-4-(2-Thienoyl)-Pyrazol-5-One

New cobalt(II) complex, [Co(O2C15H11N2S)2(OH2)2]∙2H2O (1∙2H2O), has been synthesized upon reaction of cobalt chloride hexahydrate (Co(Cl)2∙6H2O) with 3-methyl-1-Phenyl-4-(2-thienoyl)-pyrazol-5-one (referred as HL) in ethanol at room temperature. Single crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD), spectroscopic methods, and microelemental analyses were used to characterize 1∙2H2O. Compound 1∙2H2O crystallizes in the orthorhombic crystal system with a Pbca space group and with the cobalt atom being pseudo-octahedral coordinated. The broth microdilution technique was used to screen the free ligand (HL) and the complex (1∙2H2O) for antimicrobial activities. HL has a low activity (MIC > 100 μg/mL) on all microorganisms, whereas compound 1∙2H2O displayed moderate activity (10 ∙2H2O exhibited bactericidal and fungicidal activity respectively on all the bacteria and yeasts tested. These findings reveal that the antimicrobial activity of HL was enhanced upon coordination to Co(II) ion against all microorganisms (bacteria and fungus).

Preconcentration/Separation of Some Metal Ions Using Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate Coated Alumina Modified with Bis（5-bromo- 2-hydroxy-benzaldehyde）-2-methyl-1,5-pentane Diimine （BBHBPDI） Prior to Their Flame-AAS Determination

Preconcentration/separation of Co（II）, Fe（III）, Pb（II）, Cr（IIl）, Cu（II） and Cd（II） ions using bis（5-bromo- 2-hydroxy-benzaldehyde）-2-methy1-1,5-pentane diimine （BBHBPDI） on SDS coated alumina has been reported. The influences of the analytical parameters including pH, ligand and SDS amount, type and concentration of eluent and sample volume on metal ions recoveries were investigated. At optimum values of all variables the relative standard deviation are between 2.5-2.7 and preconcentration factor was 375, while recoveries for all understudy metal ions are higher than 95%, determination limits are between 1.5-2.7. The method has been successfully applied to determination of Co（II）, Fe（III）, Pb（II）, Cr（III）, Cu（II） and Cd（II） ions content in some real samples.

Extraction and Separation of Rare Earths from Nitrate Medium by Mixtures of p-Phosphorylated Calixarene and 1-Phenyl-3-methyl-4-benzoyl-pyrazalone-5

The gadolinium extraction by the mixtures of p-phosphorylated calixarene and 1-phenyl-3-methyl-4-benzoylpyrazalone-5 from nitrate medium was studied,which indicated an obvious synergistic effect between these two extractants.The extractants exhibit no interaction with each other before the metal extraction.Gadolinium(Ⅲ)was extracted by the species of Ln(PMBP)_(2)L_(2)(NO_(3))instead of Ln(PMBP)_(3)•(HPMBP)or Ln(NO_(3))_(3)•2L which are extracted by HPMBP or L alone.Thermodynamic functions(ΔG,ΔH,ΔS)were calculated.The extraction of other rare earths was also investigated and compared.Possible single rare earth separation was discussed.
