“…They coordinate to the metal ion in many ways, depending upon the nature of the functional groups [8][9][10][11] . Studies have indicated that many triazole derived Schiff bases show antibacterial [12][13][14] , antifungal 15,16 , antimicrobial [17][18][19][20] , anticancer 21,22 , analgesic 23 , anticonvulsant 24 , antitumor [25][26][27] , antitubercular [28][29][30][31] , insecticidal, herbicidal, and plant growth regulatory [32][33][34] activities. Due to increased interest in the chemistry of vanadyl compounds and the potentially bioactive nature of triazoles, we have made an effort to combine the chemistry of vanadium(IV) with newly synthesized triazole Schiff bases L 1 -L 5 (Scheme 1).…”
