KUMAR et al: APPLICATIONS OF METAL COMPLEXES OF SCHIFF BASES-A REVIEW
نویسندگان
چکیده
Introduction Metal complexes play an essential role in agriculture, pharmaceutical and industrial chemistry. Ligand, a metal surrounded by a cluster of ions or molecule, is used for preparation of complex compounds named as Schiff bases, which are condensation products of primary amines and aldehydes or ketones (RCH=NR′, where R & R′ represents alkyl and / or aryl substituents). This paper reviews uses of Schiff bases and their metal complexes as catalysts, in various biological systems, polymers and dyes, besides some uses as antifertility and enzymatic agents.
