Abstract
Abstract Carboxyl functionalized 2-phenylquinoline derivatives, 2-(4-fluorophenyl)quinoline-4-carboxylic acid (HL1) and 2-(4-methoxyphenyl)quinoline-4-carboxylic acid (HL2) were synthesized. Further reaction of these ligands with Cd(CH3COO)2 afforded new cadmium complexes, [Cd2(L1)4(CH3OH)4]⋅1.5H2O (1) and [Cd2(L2)4(CH3OH)4] (2), respectively. These complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectra, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The fluorescent behavior and antibacterial (Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus) activities of these compounds have been studied.
