Spectroscopic studies of substituted imidazole complexes. IV. Complexes of cobalt and nickel with 2-(2′-pyridyl)benzimidazole and 2-(2′-pyridyl)imidazoline

Molecular Structure of Metal Complexes of Certain Benzimidazole Derivatives

“…Transition metal complexes containing imidazole and their derivatives have been shown to possess pharmacological activity [1,2] and have been used as antitumor and antimicrobial agents. Nitrogen heterocycles in general, and benzimidazole and their derivatives in particular, have been investigated for their antitumor, antibacterial, anti fungicidal, anticarcinogenic, anti-tubercular, anti-allergic and poliovirus inhibitor properties.…”
