Schiffbase was obtained by condensation of camphor with 4-amino-phenol .The charge transfer complex of the Schiff base as a donor molecule with picric acid as acceptor molecule in methanol were estimated. Schiff-base compound and charge transfer complex were identified by elemental analysis, infrared spectra and UV-visible spectra.The physical parameters of the CT complex were calculated by app...

The mercury (II) complex, Hg (Meca2en)I2 (1), containing bidentate Schiff base ligand  Meca2en = N,N′-bis[(E)-2-benzylidenepropylidene]ethane-1,2-diamine, has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses (CHN) and 1H-NMR spectroscopy. The crystal structure of 1 was determined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Structural investigation shows that 1 crystallizes in a monoclinic s...

We have prepared supramolecular systems of chiral Schiff base Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) complexes and colloidal gold nanoparticles (AuNP) of 10 nm diameters. They demonstrated that direct adsorption of chiral Schiff base metal complex on the surface of AuNP owing to observation of clear induced CD spectra for the first time. We observed and discussed induced CD bands on AuNP from chiral Schiff bas...

In the mononuclear complex mol-ecule of the title compond, [ZnCl(2)(C(18)H(18)N(2)O)(2)]·2C(18)H(18)N(2)O, the Zn atom, which lies on a twofold rotation axis, is coordinated by phenolate O atoms in a tetra-hedral coordination geometry. The coordinated Schiff base uses its indole NH donor site to form a hydrogen bond to the negatively charged phenolate O atom of the uncoordinated zwitterionic Sc...

Metal complexes of Cu (II), Co (II), Ni (II) and Zn (II) of Schiff based derived from 5-bromo-2hydroxybenzaldehyde and 4-nitobenzenesulfonamide have been prepared and characterized on the basis of physical characteristics, micro-analytical data, H NMR, FTIR spectrum and electronic data. The spectrum data 1 exhibit coordination of Schiff base with metal through imine nitrogen and oxygen atom and...

The new Schiff bases are synthesis from various and aldehyde and amine under magnetic stirrer method .The synthesized Schiff base were characterized by spectral techniques (UV-Spectra & IR-Spectra). And the Schiff base are yellow colour solid and having sharp melting point and insoluble in organic solvents.

Normal and sickle erythrocytes were exposed in vitro to millimolar concentrations of 31 different carbonyl compounds. Schiff base (imine) linkages were formed with amino groups of intracellular hemoglobin. Adducts were isolated by gel electrofocusing and could be dissociated by dialysis. Aromatic aldehydes proved more reactive than aliphatic aldehydes, and ketones were unreactive. The influence...

Density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been performed on a number of Schiff base structures related to the retinal Schiff base in bacteriorhodopsin (BR). The proton affinity (PA) of the Schiff base group was calculated in species with different lengths of the conjugated double-bond system and at different cis/trans isomerization states. The results show that the length of the conjuga...

The fluorescence spectral characteristics and the interaction of several water-soluble metal complexes of Schiff-base with DNA are described. Among the complexes tested, Mn-Schiff-base bound to DNA showed a marked decrease in the fluorescence intensity with a blue shift of the excitation and emission peaks. Some hypochromism in the UV absorption spectra was also observed. KI quenching and compe...

A component of the shikimate biosynthetic pathway, dehydroquinate dehydratase (DHQD) catalyzes the dehydration of 3-dehydroquniate (DHQ) to 3-dehydroshikimate. In the type I DHQD reaction mechanism a lysine forms a Schiff base intermediate with DHQ. The Schiff base acts as an electron sink to facilitate the catalytic dehydration. To address the mechanism of Schiff base formation, we determined ...
