The interactions between platinum complexes and human serum albumin (HSA) play crucial roles in the distribution, metabolism, and activity of platinum-based anticancer drugs. Octahedral platinum (IV) complexes represent a significant class of anticancer agents that display molecular pharmacological properties different from cisplatin. In this study, the interaction between two Pt(IV) complexes ...

In this research, the interaction of [CuL(DMF)], [NiL(DMF)] and [VOL(DMF)] (where L = ((E)-4-((2-amino-5-nitrophenylimino)methyl)benzene-1,3-diol)) complexes derived from tridentate Schiff base ligand with bovine serum albumin (BSA) and DNA was investigated via electronic absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy. The Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-Vis) spectra exhibited an isosbestic point for the com...

Stability of the ;-; stacking interactions in the substituted-coronene||cyclooctatetraene complexes wasstudied using the computational quantum chemistry methods (where || denotes ;–; stackinginteraction, and substituted-coronene is coronene which substituted with four similar X groups; X =OH, SH, H, F, CN, and NO). There are meaningful correlations between changes of geometricalparameters and t...

two newly-created water-soluble complexes of palladium(ii)/platinum(ii)-dithiocarbamate, [pd/pt(phen)(pyr-dtc)]no3 (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline and pyr-dtc = pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate) were synthesized. also, their chemical characteristics are reported in the current research paper. in these complexes, the dithiocarbamato ligand coordinates to pt(ii) or pd(ii) center with two sulfur atoms as bi...

the catalytic acvtivity of dimeric and monomeric ortho-palladated complexes [pd{c6h2(ch2nh2-(ome)2,3,4}(µ-cl)]2)2) and [pd{c6h2(ch2nh2-(ome)2,3,4}cl(pph3)](3), was investigated in heck cross-coupling reaction. these complexes are more active and efficient catalysts for heck cross-coupling reaction. the palladium complexes 2 and 3 is employed in the heck cross-coupling reaction between styrene a...

Zinc sulphate is currently used for treatment of zinc deficiency. Its uptake by the body is poor, necessitating the administration of high doses. This leads to a range of unpleasant side effects. In order to increase the bioavailability of zinc, several zinc complexes have been designed and synthesized using bidentate ligands of hydroxypyranones and hydroxypyridinones. Elemental analysis in eac...

Aminocarboxylic acids, such as 2-aminobenzoic acid, react easily with [Ir(COD)(PMe3)3]Cl, (COD=1,5-cyclooctadiene), in THF to produce hydridoaminocarboxylato iridium(III) complexes in high yields. These octahedral complexes are formed via oxidative addition reaction of the O-H bond of the carboxylic group with the central metal. The starting iridium(I) complex losses t...

A new Schiff base ligand (L) obtained by the condensation reaction of N-acetylaceto-otoluidineand 2-aminopropanoic acid (an amino acid), is used to synthesize four mononuclearcomplexes of [MLCl] and [ML2] types (where M = Cu(II) and Zn(II); L = Schiff base) bykeeping the metal and ligand ratio as 1:1 and 1:2 respectively. This ligand and its complexeshave been characterized on the basis of diff...
