Complexes of ethyl-α-(N-phenylthiocarbamyl)acetoacetate (HEPTA) with Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II) and Pd(II) have been prepared and characterized on the basis of elemental analyses, molar conductance, magnetic moment and spectral (UV-Visible, ESR and IR) studies. IR spectra show that HEPTA behaves in a neutral or mononegative bidentate manner. A tetrahedral structure is proposed for the Co(II) complex while a square-planar structure is proposed for the Ni(II), Cu(II) and Pd(II) complexes. The thermal stability and the decomposition steps of [Ni(EPTA)2] and [Cu(EPTA)(OAc)] were investigated with the help of TG thermograms. The Ni(II) and Co(II) complexes show two well defined electrode processes M(I)/M(II) and M(II)/M(III) in dimethylform-amide(DMF), while the Cu(II) complex shows one electrode couple assigned to Cu(II/I).
Molecular modeling and antioxidant activity of newly synthesized 3?hydroxy-2-substituted-thiophene derivatives

A facile synthesis of 3?hydroxy-4-(4-hydroxyphenylazo)thiophenes with various functional groups at position-2 of thiophene ring and their corresponding O-acetylated products is described. The synthetic strategy is based on cyclization of the precursor ethyl 2-(2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)hydrazono)-3-(phenylamino)-3-thioxopropanoate with the appropriate α-chlorinated reagents (namely; chloroacetone, phenacyl chloride, ethyl chloroacetate and chloroacetonitrile). The produced 3?hydroxy-4-(4-hydroxyphenylazo)thiophenes were acetylated upon heating in acetic anhydride to yield the corresponding 3?hydroxy-4-(4-acetoxyphenylazo)thiophenes and/or 3-acetoxy-4-(4-acetoxyphenylazo)thiophenes. The synthesized thiophene derivatives were characterized by IR, 1H NMR and mass spectroscopic analyses. The DFT modeling of the synthesized derivatives offered a reasonable description about why the acetylation reaction was occurred on the phenolic O[sbnd]H group rather than the O[sbnd]H group at position-3 of thiophene ring. While in case of 2-cyano-3?hydroxy-4-(4-hydroxyphenylazo)-5-(phenylamino)-thiophene, both hydroxyl groups were acetylated. The antioxidant activities for the synthesized compounds were assessed through DPPH technique. The 3-hydroxythiophene derivatives 5a-c displayed significant activity with IC50 values (3.01–26.27 μg/mL) using BHA, BHT and ascorbic acid as reference antioxidants. Meanwhile, the results of molecular docking study that applied on the synthesized thiophene derivatives supported the experimental antioxidant assay.
