    Spectrophotometric determination of platinum(IV) in alloys, complexes, environmental, and pharmaceutical samples using 4-[N,N-(diethyl)amino] benzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone
    (2010) Naik, P.P.; Karthikeyan, J.; Nityananda Shetty, A.N.
    4-[N,N-(Diethyl)amino] benzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone (DEABT) is proposed as an analytical reagent for the spectrophotometric determination of platinum(IV). The DEABT forms 1:2 yellow complex with Pt(IV), which is sparingly soluble in water and completely soluble in water-ethanol-DMF medium. The Pt(IV)-DEABT complex shows maximum absorbance at 405 nm. Beer's law is valid up to 7.80 ?g cm-3, and optimum concentration range for the determination of platinum(IV) is 0.48-7.02 ?g cm-3. The molar absorptivity and Sandell's sensitivity of the method are found to be 1.755 × 104 dm3 mol-1 cm-1 and 0.0012 ?g cm-2, respectively. The relative error and coefficient of variation (n=6) for the method does not exceed ±0.43% and 0.35%, respectively. Since the method tolerates a number of metal ions commonly associated with platinum, it can be employed for the determination of platinum in environmental samples, pharmaceutical samples, alloys, catalysts, and complexes. The method is rapid as the Pt(IV)-DEABT complex is soluble in water-ethanol-DMF medium and not requiring any time consuming extraction method for the complex. © 2010 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.

    Analytical properties of p-[N,N-bis(2-chloroethyl)amino]benzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone: Spectrophotometric determination of palladium(II) in alloys, catalysts, and complexes
    (2011) Karthikeyan, J.; Parameshwara, P.; Nityananda Shetty, A.N.
    p-[N,N-bis(2-chloroethyl)amino]benzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone (CEABT) is proposed as a new, sensitive, and selective analytical reagent for the spectrophotometric determination of palladium(II). The reagent reacts with palladium(II) in the pH range 1-2 to form a yellow-colored complex. Beer's law is obeyed in the concentration range up to 2.64 ?g cm-3. The optimum concentration range for minimum photometric error as determined by Ringbom's plot method is 0.48-2.40 ?g cm-3. The yellowish Pd(II)-reagent complex shows a maximum absorbance at 395 nm, with molar absorptivity of 4.05 × 104 dm3 mol-1 cm-1 and Sandell's sensitivity of the complex from Beer's data, for D= 0.001, is 0.0026 ?g cm-2. The composition of the Pd(II)-CEABT reagent complex is found to be 1:2 (M-L). The interference of various cations and anions in the method were studied. The proposed method was successfully used for the determination of Pd(II) in alloys, catalysts, complexes, water samples, and synthetic alloy mixtures with a fair degree of accuracy. © 2010 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.

    (2011) Geetha, G.M.; Nayak, J.; Nityananda Shetty, A.N.
    The corrosion inhibition characteristics of 4-(N,N-dimethylamino) benzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone (DMABT) on the corrosion behavior of 6061 Al-15 vol. pct. SiC(p) composite and its base alloy were studied at different temperatures in acid mixture medium containing varying concentrations of hydrochloric acid and sulphuric acid using Tafel extrapolation technique and ac impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The effect of inhibitor concentration, temperature and concentration of the acid mixture media on the inhibitor action was investigated. It was found that inhibition efficiencies increase with the increase in inhibitor concentration, but decrease with the increase in temperature and with the increase in concentration of the acid media. Thermodynamic parameters for dissolution process were determined. The adsorption of DMABT on both the composite and base alloy was found to be through physisorption obeying Freundlich adsorption isotherm. © 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    (2011) Karthikeyan, J.; Naik, P.P.; Nityananda Shetty, A.N.
    4-[N,N-(Dimethyl)amino]benzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone (DMABT) is proposed as an analytical reagent for the extractive spectrophotometric determination of copper(II). DMABT forms yellow colored complex with copper(II) in the pH range 4.4-5.4. Beer's law is obeyed in the concentration range up to 4.7 ?g mL -1. The optimum concentration range for minimum photometric error as determined by Ringbom plot method is 1.2-3.8 ?g mL-1. The yellowish Cu(II)-DMABT complex shows a maximum absorbance at 420 nm, with molar absorptivity of 1.72 × 104dm3 mol-1 cm-1 and Sandell's sensitivity of the complex obtained from Beer's data is 0.0036 ?g cm-2. The composition of the Cu(II)-DMABT complex is found to be 1:2 (M/L). The interference of various cations and anions in the method were studied. Thus the method can be employed for the determination of trace amount of copper(II) in water, alloys and other natural samples of significant importance. © 2010 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.

    (2011) Poornima, T.; Nayak, J.; Nityananda Shetty, A.N.
    4-(N,N-diethylamino)benzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone (DEABT) was studied for its corrosion inhibition property on the corrosion of aged 18 Ni 250 grade maraging steel in 0.67M phosphoric acid at 30-50°C by potentiodynamic polarization, EIS and weight loss techniques. Inhibition efficiency of DEABT was found to increase with the increase in DEABT concentration and decrease with the increase in temperature. The activation energy Ea and other thermodynamic parameters (?Gads0, ?Hads0, ?Sads0) have been evaluated and discussed. The adsorption of DEABT on aged maraging steel surface obeys the Langmuir adsorption isotherm model and the inhibitor showed mixed type inhibition behavior. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.

    (Elsevier Ltd, 2018) Prakashaiah, B.G.; Vinaya Kumara, D.; Pandith, A.; Nityananda Shetty, A.; Amitha Rani, B.E.
    Three thiosemicarzone derivatives, namely (E)-2-(2-hydroxybenzylidene) hydrazinecarbothioamide(MHC), (E)-2-(2,4-dihydroxybenzylidene)hydrazinecarbothioamide (DHC) and (E)-2-(2,3,4-trihydroxybenzylidene)hydrazinecarbothioamide (THC) were synthesized and their corrosion inhibition action on 2024-T3 aluminum alloy was studied in 3.5% NaCl solution. The surface morphology and surface composition of the corroded alloy were examined using FESEM, 3D profilometry, EDX spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The synthesized inhibitors were found to provide corrosion protection on AA2024-T3 by forming an adsorbed layer of the complex on the alloy surface. They exhibited inhibition efficiency in the order, MHC < DHC < THC. Quantum chemical calculations corroborated the experimental results. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd

    Syntheses, quantum mechanical modeling, biomolecular interaction and in vitro anticancer – Tubulin activity of thiosemicarbazones
    (Academic Press Inc. apjcs@harcourt.com, 2020) Xavier, J.S.; Karthikeyan, K.; Ragavendran, V.; NityanandaShetty, A.
    A new series of thiosemicarbazones were designed and synthesized. Their structures were confirmed by spectral characterization and single crystal XRD studies. Compounds MTSC-2 and ETSC-3 crystallized in the orthorhombic crystal system with space group Pbc21 andPca21respectively. Density functional theory computational studies were performed on MTSC-2 and ETSC-3 along with natural bond orbital analysis and Mulliken population analysis to study the structural and electronic properties of the thiosemicarbazones. The HOMOs of the two thiosemicarbazones are ?5.2943 and ?5.1133 eV respectively while the LUMOs are ?1.6879 and ?1.6398 eV respectively. The energy gap is 3.6064 and 3.4736 eV respectively. Molecular docking studies were performed to determine the binding mode of the thiosemicarbazones against ?-tubulin. The theoretical studies were further supplemented with tubulin polymerization inhibition assay. All the four thiosemicarbazones proved effective in inhibiting the polymerization of ?- and ?-tubulin heterodimers into microtubules. The anticancer activity of these compounds showed their extreme potency against A549 and HepG2 cancer cell lines with IC50 values of 0.051 – 0.189 µm and 0.042 – 0.136 µm respectively. Compound PTSC-4 showed the highest activity both against tubulin and the two cancer cell lines. This was in correlation with the theoretical studies. Hence, these four compounds, specifically PTSC-4, can be considered to be potential leads in the development of non-metallic anticancer agents. © 2020 Elsevier Inc.
