Cu(ii) complex of a new isoindole derivative: structure, catecholase like activity, antimicrobial properties and bio-molecular interactions

Abstract

An isoindole based trigonal bipyramidal Cu(ii) complex shows catecholase and antimicrobial activities. It interacts with bio-relevant antipyrine derivative.

A new mononuclear Fe(iii) Mannich-base complex with selective histidine binding and catechol oxidase activity

“…8 In another article, the same group reported the catalysis and antimicrobial activities of the copper complex. 12 Kumar et al reported dual catalysis and dual sensing behavior of a copper-based metal–organic framework. 13 Following such previous instances, herein, we have investigated the bifunctional activities of complex 1 .…”

Copper complexes for the promotion of iminopyridine ligands derived from β-alanine and self-aldol additions: relaxivity and cytotoxic properties

“…[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] Among the plethora of Cu (II) compounds that have been tested as anticancer agents, complexes with Schiff base ligands have emerged as promising candidates. [9][10][11][12][13] Since the pioneering work of Reedijk et al 14,15 on Schiff base derivatives of pyrimol with copper and other metals, several groups have assessed the DNA cleavage, cytotoxicity and apoptosis induction activities of related families of copper complexes. [16][17][18] Additionally, there is a current interest in the development of paramagnetic complexes to be used as relaxation agents for contrast in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).…”
