Mono- and dioxido-vanadium(V) complexes of a tridentate ONO Schiff base ligand: Synthesis, spectral characterization, X-ray crystal structure, and anticancer activity

Synthesis, characterization and immobilization of a novel mononuclear vanadium (V) complex on modified magnetic nanoparticles as catalyst for epoxidation of allyl alcohols

“…Although there has been little concern on vanadium complexes research up to 1980, focus were then directed toward the synthesis of different types of vanadium coordination compounds within the last two decades. Due to the presence of vanadium in biological systems, in the active centre of some enzymes (haloperoxidases and nitrogenases) and its insulin enhancing action and anticancer activity, it has driven a considerable amount of research. Synthesis of vanadium complexes containing polypyridyl ligands have been carried out and used as anti‐protozoa, anti‐tumor, antiparasitic, DNA cleavage, insulin mimetic activity, oral insulin substitutes for the treatment of diabetes and for the treatment of obesity and hypertension .…”

Synthesis, characterization, X-ray crystal structures and antibacterial activities of Schiff base ligands derived from allylamine and their vanadium(IV), cobalt(III), nickel(II), copper(II), zinc(II) and palladium(II) complexes

“…They show potential applications and properties such as anticancer, anticonvulsant, antitumor, antifungal, antibacterial, antitubercular, antioxidant, antimalarial, anti-inflammatory and anti-HIV activities [5,[18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28].…”

Syntheses, crystal structures and in vitro anticancer activities of oxovanadium(IV) complexes of amino acid Schiff base and 1,10-phenanthroline ligands

“…Moreover, a growing body of evidence reveals that vanadium complexes can act as potent anticancer agents [14]. Although inorganic vanadium salts have relatively high toxicity and poor biological activity, the complexation of vanadium with organic ligands can minimize adverse effects while enhancing its benefits [15]. Therefore, it is important to synthesize novel oxovanadium complexes and investigate their medical applications.…”

“…Efforts have been made to synthesize and characterize amino acid Schiff base complexes of transition metals [23,24]. Recently, our research group, and others, reported some vanadium complexes with anticancer activities [15,19]. In this work, four new amino acid Schiff base oxovanadium(V) complexes have been synthesized and characterized (Fig.…”
