abstract = "To investigate how modification in the structure of 1,3-propanediamine chain of 1,3-pdta (1,3-propanediamine-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetate) ligand affects the structural and biological properties of the corresponding metal complexes, two new octahedral complexes, [Co(H2O)5Co(2,2-diMe-1,3-pdta)]·H2O (1) and [Mg(H2O)5Mg(2,2-diMe-1,3-pdta)]·1.5H2O (2) (2,2-diMe-1,3-pdta = 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-propanediamine-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetate), were synthesized and characterized by IR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Additionally, UV-Vis and NMR spectroscopic methods were applied for the characterization of 1 and 2, respectively. Crystallographic data indicate that these complexes contain 2,2-diMe-1,3-pdta coordinated to the metal ion through 2 N and 4 O atoms forming [M(H2O)5M′(2,2-diMe-1,3-pdta)] complex unit (M, M′ = Co(II), Co(II) (1) and M, M′ = Mg(II), Mg(II) (2)), which is composed of [M′(2,2-diMe-1,3-pdta)]2− and [M(H2O)5O]2+ octahedra bridged by one of the axial carboxylate groups. The antimicrobial activities of 1 and 2 were evaluated against different bacteria and Candida spp., while their cytotoxic effect was tested on the normal human lung fibroblasts (MRC-5). The ability of 1 and 2 to inhibit formation of C. glabrata biofilms was also assessed. The obtained structural parameters and biological properties of the two complexes were compared to Co(II) and Mg(II) complexes with 1,3-pdta ligand.",
