TL;DR: Binuclear nickel(II) and copper (II) complexes with four 5-methoxysalicylaldehyde N(3)-substituted thiosemicarbazones have been prepared and characterized as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: Binuclear nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes with four 5-methoxysalicylaldehyde N(3)-substituted thiosemicarbazones and nickel(II) complexes of four 5-nitro-salicylaldehyde N(3)-substituted thiosemicarbazones have been prepared and characterized. I.r., electronic, and e.s.r. spectra of the complexes, as well as i.r., electronic, and 1H- and 13C-n.m.r spectra of the thiosemicarbazones, have been obtained. None of these compounds show significant growth inhibitory activity against the fungi Aspergillus niger and Paecilomyces variotii.

TL;DR: The structural aspects of the complexes formed by thiosemicarbazones and semicarazones (TSCs) with the metallic elements of Groups 12, 13, 14 and 15 are surveyed up to 1998.
629 citations
TL;DR: In this article, the coordination chemistry of thiosemicarbazones and all the metals for which complexes are reported are discussed with respect to their bonding and structures, variable bonding properties, metallation, metal-metal interactions, role of solvents/other factors in stabilization of sulfur-bridging in coinage metals, and the nature of substituents at azomethine carbon.
526 citations
TL;DR: In this article, the chemical and antitumoral properties of thiosemicarbazone complex-based drugs containing platinum (II) or palladium(II) were reviewed, and the interaction with DNA indicates interhelical cross-link formation.

TL;DR: Twelve zinc(II) complexes with thiosemicarbazone and semicarbazones ligands were prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis (TG/DTA), FT-IR and 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, and showed antimicrobial activities against bacteria, yeasts and molds.
