    Thiosemicarbazones (TSCs) and their metal com-plexes, especially the transition metal, have attracted intensity attention in the coordination chemistry because of their high biological and pharmaceutical activities, such as antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, and antitumor activity[1]. In fact, the mechanism of antitumor action is still controversial in many respects and has been identified including ribonucleotide reductase inhibition, metal dependent radical damage, DNA binding and inhibition of protein synthesis[1-10]. Up to now, a large amount of TSCs metals containing six-member heterocycles have been found to possess considerable antitumor activity[2, 4-10]. However, the studies on the complexes with TSCs bearing cond-ensed heterocycles are relatively few [3, 11-13]. Recently, several Cu (Ⅱ) complexes with quinolin-8-ylmethylene) thiosemicarbazide have been reported to be potential antitumor agents[12-13]. In this paper, the structures and DNA-binding properties of its Co (Ⅲ)/Cd (Ⅱ) complexes have been discussed in detail.

    1   Experimental

    1.1   Materials and measurements

    Solvents and starting materials for syntheses were purchased commercially and used as received. Elemental analyses were carried out on an Elemental Vario EL analyzer. The IR spectra (ν=4 000~400 cm-1) were determined by the KBr pressed disc method on a Bruker V70 FT-IR spectrophotometer. DNA-Binding Properties of both complexes are measured using literature method via absorption and emission spectra[14]. The UV spectra were recorded on a Purkinje General TU-1800 spectrophotometer. Fluorescence spectra were determined on a Varian CARY Eclipse spectrophotometer, in the measurements of emission and excitation spectra the pass width is 5 nm.

    1.2   Preparations of the ligand and complexes 1 and 2

    The TSC ligand HL (Scheme 1) was produced according to the literature method[13]. The complexes 1 and 2 were generated by reaction of HL (5mmol) with equimolar of CoCl2 or Cd (NO3)2 in CH3OH (10 mL) solution, respectively. Crystals of 1 and 2 suitable for X-ray diffraction analysis were obtained by evaporating the corresponding reaction solutions at room temperature.

    1.3   X-ray crystallography

    The X-ray diffraction measurement for complexes 1 (size: 0.10 mm×0.08 mm ×0.08 mm) and 2 (size: 0.15 mm×0.14 mm×0.06 mm) was performed on a Bruker SMART APEX Ⅱ CCD diffractometer equipped with a graphite monochromatized Mo radiation (λ=0.071 073 nm) by using φ-ω scan mode. Semi-empirical absorption correction was applied to the intensity data using the SADABS program[15]. The structures were solved by direct methods and refined by full matrix least-square on F2 using the SHELXTL-97 program[16]. All non-hydrogen atoms were refined anisotropically. All H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using a riding model. Details of the crystal parameters, data collection and refinements for complexes 1 and 2 are summarized in Table 1.

    Table 3.  Hydrogen bonds information in complexes 1 and 2

    As shown in Fig. 1a, the asymmetric unit of complex 1 contains a half of the molecule with the Co (Ⅲ) ion situated on a two-fold rotational axis. The centre Co (Ⅲ) ion is coordinated by two anionic TSC ligands with N2S donor sets, and thus possesses a distorted octahedron coordination geometry. There exists one free chloride anion (occupying two positions) in the outside of the complex for charge balance, although complex 1 is prepared by the reaction of the TSC ligand HL with CoCl2 in methanol medium. This is a normal phenomenon in the Co (Ⅲ) complexes with TSC ligands reported in literature[14]. The distances of Co-N/S bonds were in the range of 0.188 0(6)~0.220 4(4) nm, which were comparable with those found in the reported complexes with similar donor set. In the crystal, pairs of intermole-cular N-H…N hydrogen bonds link the complex cations into one-dimentional chains along c axis (Fig. 1c). Furthermore, a 3D supermolecular network is formed via the N-H…Cl hydrogen bonds between the chains and free chlorides. The intermolecular O-H…Cl hydrogen bonds between the crystal methanol molecules and chloride anions are also present (Table 3).

    The coordination environment of central Cd (Ⅱ) ion in complex 2 (Fig. 1b) is quite similar as that of Co (Ⅲ) ion in complex 1. The distances of Cd-N/S bonds were in the normal range (0.229 8(6)~0.253 3(3) nm). In the crystal of 2, the intermolecular N-H…N hydrogen bonds link the complexes into chains, which were further linked with each other via intermolecular N-H…S hydrogen bonds to form extended 2D super-molecular network, as illustrated in Fig. 1d.

    2.2   IR spectra

    The infrared spectral bands most useful for determining the mode of coordination of the ligands are the ν(N=C), ν(N=C, pyrazine) and ν(S=C) vibra-tions. Such three bonds of the free TSC ligand is found at 1 594, 1 532 and 816 cm-1, while they shifts to lower frequency in complexes 1 and 2, clearly indicating the coordination of imine nitrogen, quinoline nitrogen and sulfur atoms[14]. It is in accordance with the X-ray diffraction analysis result.

    2.3   DNA-binding studies

    The application of electronic absorption spectros-copy is one of the most useful techniques in DNA-binding studies. The UV absorption spectra would change in accordance with the environmental condition changes, since the stacking interactions happened between the complexes and DNA[14, 17-18]. As shown in Fig. 2, with increasing DNA concentration, hypochromic (1) or hyperchromic (2) effect was observed, which indicated molecular level interactions between the complexes and DNA. In addition, the lack of the red shift suggests that the major binding modes of both complexes with DNA are not classical intercalative interaction[18]. The intrinsic binding constant (Kb) of 1 was determined to be 8.81×103 L·mol-1 according to the literature method[14, 17], which is comparable with some Co (Ⅲ) complexes with TSCs ligands[14]. However, the absorption intensities change of 2 is obscure, thus its binding constant cannot be obtained reasonably.

    Figure 2.  Electronic spectra of the complexes 1 (a) and 2 (b) in Tris-HCl buffer (pH=7.2) upon addition of CT-DNA

    The emission experiment has been widely used to further confirm the interaction between the complexes and CT-DNA. The results of fluorescence titration spectra have also been confirmed to be effective for characterizing the binding mode of the metal complexes to DNA[17-18]. Fig. 3 shows the results of the emission titration curve of the complexes with CT-DNA. An increase in DNA concentration resulted slight increase and decrease in the emission intensity of complexes 1 and 2, respectively. Combining with the electronic absorption spectroscopy titration results and according to the literature, it can be roughly concluded that complexes 1 and 2 bind to DNA via electrostatic intercalation[17] and partial intercalation[18] modes, respectively.

    3   Conclusions

    In summary, two transition metal complexes [CoL2]Cl·2CH3OH (1) and [CdL2] (2) were synthesized and characterized. The metal ion in each complex with a distorted octahedron geometry is surrounded by two anionic thiosemicarbazone ligand with N2S donor set. Complexes 1 and 2 can bind to DNA via electrostatic intercalation and partial intercalation modes, respectively. This indicates that both complexes have potential pharmaceutical activity.
