1. The association and ionization constants for nickel (II) and a selection of L-histidine-containing peptides have been computed together with the constants for copper (II) and acetylglycylglycyl-L-histidylglycine. 2. A close parallel between the titration behavior of copper (II) apomyoglobin complexes and model peptides has been obtained on the assumption that 1 of the 4 bound metal ions is s...

The objectives of this experiment were to investigate the application of new ligands including different atoms & evaluation their nucleophile effects against various metals. Chemistry researchers are really interested in this field. From among various ligands, there are some ligands with different coordinating ligands as well. There are great number of intermediate complexes and major elements ...

The antimicrobial activity of some novel ascorbic acid-metal complexes [bisascorbate complexes of copper (II), zinc(II), manganese (11), iron (111), cobalt(II), lead(II) and cadmium(II)] was investigated. Four standard strains of bacterial species - Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis and Klebsiella pneumonia and four fungal species - Trichophyton sp. Penicillium sp....

A new series of mono and binuclear copper(II) complexes, [CuL1-3] and [Cu2L1-3]+, where, L = precursor complex prepared from condensation of salicylaldehyde, pyridine and various amines namely ethylene, propylene and butylene diamines with copper(II) perchlorate. All the complexes have been synthesized and characterized by FT IR, UV-Vis spectral and electrochemical methods. Cyclic voltammogramm...

A series of tetranuclear grid-type complexes were prepared by the reaction of the asymmetric multidentate ligand HL (HL = 2-[3-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1H-pyrazol-5-yl]-6-pyridine carboxylic acid ethylester) with different metal sources. The tetranuclear copper complex, [Cu4(L1)4(NO3)4(H2O)4] Et2O 2MeOH (1, HL1 = 2-[3-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1H-pyrazol-5-yl]-6-pyridine carboxylic acid methyl ester) consists...

Plasma concentrations of low molecular weight copper-containing components are known to increase in response to various diseases such as arthritis, epilepsy, and cancer. Each of these diseases is recognized as having inflammatory components. Experiments on animals have shown that administration of low molecular weight copper complexes produced anti-inflammatory effects. Based on these results i...

Copper(II) acetate mediated coupling reactions between 2,6-bis(azidomethyl)pyridine or 2-picolylazide and two terminal alkynes afford 1,2,3-triazolyl-containing ligands L(1)-L(6). These ligands contain various nitrogen-based Lewis basic sites including two different pyridyls, two nitrogen atoms on a 1,2,3-triazolyl ring, and the azido group. A rich structural diversity, which includes mononucle...

This is a report of the studies conducted on synthesis, spectral, biological viz. antibacterial and antitumorous activities some Copper complexes synthesized from multidentate thiosemicarbazone ligand, HL2. based reaction between secondary amine viz.N-phenyl piperazine an N-substituted heterocyclic ketone 2-Benzoylpyridine. The ligand exhibits mode coordination through N,N,S donor atoms in copp...

Few novel cobalt(II) and copper(II) complexes [M(fmp)3]Cl2, [M(fmp)(bpy)2]Cl2,[M(fmp)(phen)2]Cl2 and [M(fmp)(phen)(bpy)]Cl2 (fmp = 3-furan-2-ylmethylene-pentane-2,4-dione, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) have been synthesized andcharacterized by elemental analyses, molar conductance, magnetic susceptibility measurements,IR, electronic, EPR, mass spectra and cyclic voltammetri...
