摘要

A μ3-oxo-bridged trinuclear nickel(II) coordination cluster, [Ni3O(TDAD)6Cl3]Cl (TDAD = 1,3,4-thiadiazole-2,5-diamine), was synthesized and comprehensively characterized using complementary spectroscopic, structural, and physicochemical techniques. FT-IR and Raman spectroscopy confirmed coordination of TDAD through nitrogen donors and the presence of a robust Ni3O core, while UV-Vis-NIR data revealed ligand-centred and Ni(II) d-d transitions consistent with distorted octahedral geometry. Thermal analysis demonstrated multistep decomposition with the formation of a stable inorganic residue. SEM-EDS, elemental mapping, and XRF analyses verified homogeneous elemental distribution and phase purity, whereas PXRD confirmed crystallinity and consistency with the single-crystal structure. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction established a centrosymmetric hexagonal framework (space group P63/mcm) featuring vertex-sharing distorted octahedra around the Ni centres linked through the μ3-oxo bridge. Hirshfeld surface and fingerprint analyses highlighted dominant N–H···Cl hydrogen bonding supported by S- and van-der-Waals-type contacts in stabilizing the supramolecular packing. Antimicrobial evaluation demonstrated enhanced activity of the coordination cluster compared with the free ligand and nickel salt, producing inhibition zones of 18.0 ± 0.2 mm against Escherichia coli, 10.0 ± 0.1 mm against Bacillus subtilis, and 17.0 ± 0.1 mm against Candida albicans. Molecular docking calculations revealed favourable binding affinities (−6.3 to −8.1 kcal mol–1) and multiple stabilizing hydrogen-bonding and electrostatic interactions with microbial target proteins, supporting the experimental biological results. The combined structural, supramolecular, and biological findings indicate that μ3-oxo-bridged multinuclear nickel complexes incorporating thiadiazole ligands constitute promising candidates for further investigation as functional antimicrobial coordination materials.
