description | (Z)-N′-(4-methoxybenzylidene)benzohydrazide (HL) and its Ni(II) complex (Ni(II)-2L) were synthesized using eco-friendly protocols. The single X-ray crystal structure of Ni(II)-2L was solved. Moreover, the structural properties were evaluated using Fourier transform infrared, proton nuclear magnetic resonance, mass, and Ultraviolet/Visible spectroscopy. The diamagnetic and thermal stability were assessed using magnetic susceptibility and thermogravimetric analysis, respectively. The biological activities of both HL and Ni(II)-2L (62.5–1000 μg/mL) against Gram-positive (<i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> and <i>Streptococcus pyogenes</i>) and Gram-negative (<i>Escherichia coli</i> and <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i>) bacterial and fungal (<i>Candida albicans</i>, <i>Aspergillus niger</i>, and <i>Aspergillus clavatus</i>) species were studied using the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) tests method in reference to Gentamycin and Nystatin standard drugs, respectively. The results revealed an affordable, environmentally friendly, and efficient synthetic method of HL using water as a green solvent. The Ni(II)-2L complex crystallized in a distorted square planar, <i>P</i>2<sub>1</sub>/<i>n</i> space group, and one Ni(II) to two bidentate negatively charged ligand ratio. The analysis of biological activity revealed higher activity of the complex against <i>S. aureus</i> and <i>S. pyogenes</i> (bacteria) and <i>A. niger</i> and <i>A. clavatus</i> (fungi) compared to the ligand. However, the highest activity was at a MIC of 62.5 μg/mL for the complex against <i>S. pyogenes</i> and for the ligand against <i>E. coli</i>. Therefore, both HL and Ni(II)-2L could be promising potential antimicrobials and their selective activity could be an additional benefit of these bioactive materials. |
