“…The versatility of the compounds, along with their metal complexes, have attracted significant interest in the fields of chemistry and biology. They exhibit a broad spectrum of biological properties, including antibacterial, anticancer, antiproliferative and antiviral activities (Chaturvedi, 2012;Damit et al, 2021;Montalbano et al, 2023;Kumar et al, 2023;Arif et al, 2024). For instance, a series of quinoline-2-carboxaldehyde thiosemicarbazone derivatives and their Cu II and Ni II complexes have been reported by Bisceglie et al (2015) for biological survey studies.…”
