Abstract

Complexes of some #lanthanoids with several #biscoumarin compounds such as 3,3'- benzylidenebis(4-hydroxy-2H-chromen-2-one), 3,3'-[(2-methoxyphenyl) methylene)]bis(4-hydroxy-2H-chromen-2-one), 3'-[(4-methoxyphenyl)methylene)]bis(4-hydroxy-2H-chromen-2-one) and 3,3'-[(4-chlorophenyl)methylene)]bis(4-hydroxy-2H-chromen-2-one) were synthesized. The assessment of toxicity both ligands and the complexes formed was made through testing their antibacterial properties and cytotoxicity as two independent activities were studied. Three Gram- positive microorganisms were used, #B. Mycoides, B. Subtilis and S. Lutea, applying the double layer agar hole diffusion method. The tested compounds were active against Gram-positive bacteria, but no activity was measured against Gram-negative bacteria. Cytotoxicity evaluation was made against cell lines such as K-562, BV-173, and SKW-3. The cluster analysis as a technique of the statistical data analysis was applied to the results obtained. Coumarin (2H-1-benzopyran-2-one) and its derivates are large class of chemical compounds, most of them naturally occurring and can be found in plants [1], fungi and bacteria [2,3] or can be synthesized with a modification of the coumarin ring [4-6]. Due to the different types of substitution of the parent ring, #coumarins are extremely variable in structure resulting in variety of their properties. Both natural and synthetic coumarins are reported to have properties such as antioxidant [7,8], #antifungal [9,10], #antitumor [11-13], anti-HIV [14,15], anticoagulant [16,17], antibacterial [18-20], etc.
