Synthesis, Characterization, and Applications of Rare-Earth-Based Complexes with Antibacterial and Antialgal Properties
ACS applied bio materials(2023)
摘要
The pursuit of environmentally friendly and highly effective antifouling materials for marine applications is of paramount importance. In this study, we successfully synthesized novel rare earth-based complexes by coordinating cerium (Ce III), samarium (Sm III), and europium (Eu III) with pyrithione (1-hydroxy-2-pyridinethione; PT). Extensive characterizations were performed, including single-crystal X-ray analysis, which revealed the intriguing binuclear structure of these complexes. This structural motif comprises two rare-earth ions intricately double-bridged by two oxygen atoms from the PT ligand, resulting in a distinctive and intriguing geometry. Furthermore, the central rare earth ion is surrounded by three sulfur atoms and two additional oxygen atoms, forming a unique distorted bicapped trigonal prismatic configuration. Compared with conventional antifouling biocides such as sodium pyrithione (NaPT), copper pyrithione (CuPT), and zinc pyrithione (ZnPT), these newly synthesized rare-earth complexes exhibited a remarkable boost in their in vitro antibacterial efficacy against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Additionally, these complexes demonstrated significant potential as antialgal agents, displaying impressive activity against marine planktonic organisms. These findings underscore the promising application prospects of these rare-earth complexes in the field of marine antifouling.
