Coordination chemistry of Schiff base tin complexes

Abstract

The most important results of extensive studies of tin metal complexes with Schiff base ligands are reviewed. A large number of inorganic compounds are known but still there is a need of new compounds to develop various efforts in different fields for biomedical applications.

RETRACTED: Studying the interaction between the new neodymium (Nd) complex with the ligand of 1,10-phenanthroline with FS-DNA and BSA

“…Metal complexes are one of the most effective anticancer medications, which are created from synthetic or natural compounds. Some metal complexes have special features that boost their antitumor efficacy ( Evans, 1990 ; Delgado et al, 2010 ; Baghbanzadeh et al, 2011 ; Morschhäuser et al, 2012 ; Wang et al, 2013 ; Manju et al, 2014 ; Yan et al, 2015 ; Chundawat et al, 2021 ). Lots of high-quality research have been done on the interaction of various complexes with DNA and BSA.…”

Synthesis and Applications of Organotin(IV) Compounds: Mini Review

“…Based on structural variety, type, quantity, and arrangement of donor atoms linked to the tin metal, Schiff bases with biologically reactive donor atoms are in high demand due to their better solubility and simplicity of production [41,42]. The biological activity of unsymmetrical habitats of Schiff base ligands with continuous stoichiometry and varied methods of coordination is also facilitated by the Schiff bases, which continue to have a wide range of analytical and therapeutic applications [43,44]. The toxicity of alkylorganostannanes is highly dependent on the alkyl group, and the quantity of alkyl groups reduces activity as follows for Sn (IV) compounds, with no impact on the activity from anionic group [45]:…”
