    • DOI: 10.3390/molecules30020313

    • Abstract: This study explores the interaction of sodium phytate hydrate with copper(II) acetate monohydrate and 1,10-phenanthroline, resulting in the formation of an anionic tetranuclear complex. The complex’s structure was elucidated using X-ray diffraction analysis, revealing complete deprotonation of the phytate and various coordination modes with Cu²⁺ ions. The molecular structure is stabilized by strong intramolecular hydrogen bonds involving coordinated water molecules. Additionally, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy indicated the presence of both exchange-coupled Cu(II)-Cu(II) dimeric units and Cu(II) monomers. The complex demonstrated antimycobacterial activity against Mycolicibacterium smegmatis, suggesting potential as a metallodrug.
