Abstract

The X-ray crystal structures of two ciprofloxacin compounds, viz. [Cu(cfH)(2)(Cl)(2)] (.) 2MeOH (.) 6H2O (2) and [Cu(cfH)(phen)Cl]BF4 (.) 4H(2)O (3) are reported. Complex ( 2) has a distorted octahedral geometry, whereas for the nitrogen adduct (3) a distorted square-pyramidal geometry is seen. Significant enhancement in the antimycobacterial activity of the copper conjugates correlates with their copper redox couples (Cu2+/Cu+) probably due to its relevance to intracellular accumulations and subsequent role in generating oxidative stress.
