| Summary: | A newly synthesized complexes known as Schiff base has become an interesting
strategy in the development an alternative treatment against the diseases of multi-drug
resistance (MDR) bacteria that are highly resistant to most available antibiotics. Schiff
base was produced from a condensation reactions between primary amines and active
carbonyl complexes and considered as “privileged ligands” because of their facile
preparation and capability to combine and coordinate to other metal and strengthen the
combination in different states of condition. These Schiff base metal complexes have
attracted interest of many researchers and have been pointed as promising antibiotics
and possess so many antibacterial activities. Despite of its versatility, there is still
limited research on the screening potential of chemical synthesized of Schiff base
ligand and its metal complexes that were derived from phenylenediamine as efflux
pump inhibitor in bacterial resistance mechanism. This study focus on the screening of
40 Schiff base complexes that consist of ligands Salicylaldehyde Ortho- phenylenediamine (SalOPD), Ortho-Vanillin Ortho-phenylenediamine (OVanOPD), Ortho-Vanillin Meta-phenylenediamine (OVanMPD), Ortho-Vanillin 2,4,6-trimethyl- m-phenylenediamine [OVan(Me)MPD] and Ortho-Vanillin 4-chloro-1,3- diaminobenzene [OVanMPD(Cl)] and their mono-, di- and tetra- metal of copper, nickel, cobalt and zinc for their antibacterial activity and eventually as efflux pump
inhibitor against Klebsiella pneumoniae by resazurin microtiter based assay. The
highest antibacterial activity was demonstrated by Cu4[OVan(Me)MPD] that showed
64.2% inhibition against K. pneumoniae. In the other hand, screening for efflux pump
inhibitor found that, Co4[OVan(Me)MPD] displayed the highest inhibition percentage
of 86.5% when Schiff base complexes and K. pneumoniae ATCC 700603 were treated
with the Sub-MIC chloramphenicol (20 μg/mL). Metal complex of copper exhibits
highest antibacterial activity among others metal complexes as this due to steadiness
of the metal ion which produces a great and strong bond between N and O ions effects
from the overlapping of the ligand orbital and partial sharing of positive charge
between metal ions of these ligands has decreased the polarity of the ions thus
enhances the lipophilicity and improves the cell permeability of the complexes. This
situation agree with theory of Overton’s and Tweedy’s theory, where a chemical
synthesized of Schiff base metal complexes exhibited better potential as antibiotics as
compared to their parent ligands. As a conclusion, unique tetranuclear complexes
possess potential for future development of antibacterial agents as well as efflux pump
inhibitors. |
