Abstract

Five copper(II) coordination polymers-trans-[Cu(mu-L-hser)(L-hser)](n) (1a), {cis-[Cu(mu-L-hser)(2)]center dot H2O}(n) (1b center dot H2O), {[Cu(mu-L-hser)(H2O)(bpy)](2)SO4 center dot 2H(2)O}(n) (2 center dot 2H(2)O), {[Cu(mu-L-hser)(H2O)(bpy)](2)SO4 center dot 3H(2)O}(n) (2 center dot 3H(2)O), and {[Cu(mu-L-hser)(H2O)(bpy)](2)SO4 center dot 4H(2)O}(n) (2 center dot 4H(2)O)-were synthesized via solution-based and/or mechanochemical methods (L-hser = L-homoserinate, bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine). The compounds were characterized in the solid state (using single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction (SCXRD and PXRD), EPR, Raman and IR spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA)) and in solution (using UV-vis spectroscopy, EPR, Raman spectroscopy, and fluorimetry). In the binary bis(homoserinato)copper(II) compounds, 1a and 1b center dot H2O, polymerization is achieved through the hydroxyl group of the L-homoserinate side chain. In contrast, all ternary compounds (2 center dot 2H(2)O, 2 center dot 3H(2)O, and 2 center dot 4H(2)O) achieved polymerization through the carboxylate group of L-homoserinate. Successful solid-state transformation of 2 center dot 2H(2)O into 2 center dot 4H(2)O was established at higher relative humidity values. Copper(II) centers adopt a square-pyramidal geometry in 1a and a distorted octahedral geometry in all other investigated compounds. Spectroscopic studies suggest that 1a retains its solid-state geometry in solution, while 2 center dot 2H(2)O and 2 center dot 3H(2)O exhibit slight changes. Among the compounds, 2 center dot 2H(2)O exhibited moderate antiproliferative activity against H460 (lung), MCF-7 (breast), and HCT116 (colon) cancer cell lines, and demonstrated antibacterial activity against Moraxella catarrhalis ATCC 23246. Absorption and fluorescence spectra suggested a lower binding affinity of 2 center dot 2H(2)O to the double-stranded DNA dodecamer ds(CGCGAATTCGCG).
