Abstract

Neem (Azadirecta indica) and Karanj (Pongamia pinnata) oils are ecofriendly, non-toxic, completely biodegradable with antiviral, antifungal, and antibacterial properties. The dark green colour Copper(II) soaps derived from Neem and Karanj oil, their greenish brown complexes with ligand 2-amino-6-methyl benzothiazole containing nitrogen and sulphur have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis. IR and NMR of complexes suggest that the complexation has taken place successfully. From the analytical data the stoichiometry of the complexes has been observed to be 1:1 (metal-ligand). Copper soaps and their complexes are good anti-fungal agents. The fungi toxicities of the oils, soaps and complexes of neem and karanj have been investigated. The results indicate that the strain of Candida species is susceptible towards complexes of benzothiazole.

Kurzfassung

Neem (Azadirecta indica) und Karanj (Pongamia pinnata) Öle sind ökologiefreundlich, nichttoxisch und vollständig biologisch abbaubar, mit antiviralen, antifugalen und antibakteriellen Eigenschaften. Die aus Neem- and Karanj-Öl derivatisierten dunkelgrünen Kupfer(II)-Seifen und ihre grünbraunen Komplexe mit stickstoff- und schwefelhaltigen 2-Amino-6-methylbenzothiazol Liganden wurden synthetisiert und durch Elementaranalyse charakterisiert. Die erfolgreich stattgefundene Komplexierung wurde mittels IR und NMR der Komplexe angezeigt. Anhand der analytischen Daten wurde die Stöchiometrie der Komplexe zu 1:1 (Metal-Ligand) bestimmt. Kupfer(II)-Seifen und ihre Komplexe sind gute Antifugalhilfsmittel. Die pilztötende Wirkung der Öle, Seifen und Komplexe von Neem und Karanj wurden untersucht. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die Stammkulturen der Candida-Spezies empfindlich gegenüber Benzothiazolkomlexe sind.
