Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis, Characterization and Biological Studies of Metal(II) Complexes of (3E)-3-[(2-{(E)-[1-(2,4-Dihydroxyphenyl) ethylidene]amino}ethyl)imino]-1-phenylbutan-1-one Schiff Base

TL;DR: Analysis of the analytical and spectroscopic data suggest a square planar geometry for Cu(II) and Ni( II) complexes and an octahedral geometry for the Co(ii) complex and the ligand behaves as a dibasic tetradentate ligand with the dioxygen-dinitrogen donor atom system oriented towards the central metal ion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transition metal complexes of symmetrical and asymmetrical Schiff bases as antibacterial, antifungal, antioxidant, and anticancer agents: progress and prospects

TL;DR: The use of Schiff bases as DNA-cleaving agents and its mode of interaction and free-radical scavenging properties are described in this paper. But, the application of Schiff base and its complexes has not been discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis, Characterization and Thermal Studies of Zn(II), Cd(II) and Hg(II) Complexes of N-Methyl-N-Phenyldithiocarbamate: The Single Crystal Structure of [(C6H5)(CH3)NCS2]4Hg2

TL;DR: Thermogravimetric analysis of the complexes show a single weight loss to give MS (M = Zn, Cd, Hg) indicating that they might be useful as single source precursors for the synthesis of MS nanoparticles and thin films.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anticancer Activities of Mononuclear Ruthenium(II) Coordination Complexes

TL;DR: Ruthenium compounds are highly regarded as potential drug candidates as discussed by the authors, and they offer the potential of reduced toxicity and can be tolerated in vivo, however, they are not suitable for use in biological applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis and characterization of metal complexes of N -alkyl- N -phenyl dithiocarbamates

TL;DR: The crystal structures of the zinc complexes (Zn2L14 and Zn2l24) are also reported in this article, showing the presence of distorted trigonal bipyramidal and tetrahedral coordination geometry about the metal ions.
