Abstract
A series of nine 2,3-disubstituted-quinazolin-4(3H)-one derived Schiff bases and their three Cu(II) complexes was prepared and tested for their antimicrobial activities against reference strains Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213 and Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212 and resistant clinical isolates of methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) and vancomycin-resistant E. faecalis (VRE). All the substances were tested in vitro against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra ATCC 25177, M. kansasii DSM 44162 and M. smegmatis ATCC 700084. While anti-enterococcal and antimycobacterial activities were insignificant, 3-[(E)-(2-hydroxy-5-nitrobenzylidene)amino]-2-(2-hydroxy-5-nitrophenyl)-2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-one (SB3) and its Cu(II) complex (SB3-Cu) demonstrated bacteriostatic antistaphylococcal activity. In addition, both compounds, as well as the other two prepared complexes, showed antibiofilm activity, which resulted in a reduction of biofilm formation and eradication of mature S. aureus biofilm by 80% even at concentrations lower than the values of their minimum inhibitory concentrations. In addition, the compounds were tested for their cytotoxic effect on the human monocytic leukemia cell line THP-1. The antileukemic efficiency was improved by the preparation of Cu(II) complexes from the corresponding non-chelated Schiff base ligands.

Abstract
The search for alternatives to cisplatin has led to the development of new metal complexes where thiazoline derivatives based on platinum(II) and palladium(II) stand out. In this sense, the Pt(II) and Pd(II) complexes coordinated with the thiazoline derivative ligand 2-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)imino-N-(2-thiazolin-2-yl)thiazolidine (TdTn), with formula [PtCl2(TdTn)] and [PdCl2(TdTn)], have previously shown good results against several cancer lines; however, in this work, we have managed to improve their activity by supporting them on mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN). The incorporation of metal compounds with a melatonin derivative (5-methoxytryptamine, 5MT), which is a well-known antioxidant and apoptosis inducer in different types of cancer, has been able to increase the cytotoxic activity of both MSN-supported and isolated complexes with only a very low amount (0.35% w/w) of this antioxidant. The covalently functionalized systems that have been synthesized are able to increase selectivity as well as accumulation in HeLa cells. The final materials containing the metal complexes and 5MT (MSN-5MT-PtTdTn and MSN-5MT-PdTdTn) required up to nine times less metal to achieve the same cytotoxic activity than their corresponding non-formulated counterparts did, thus reducing the potential side effects caused by the use of the free metal complexes.
