The unexpected formation of biologically active Cu(II) Schiff mono-base complexes with 2-thiophene-carboxaldehyde and dipropylenetriamine: crystal and molecular structure of CudptaSCl2

Solvent-free chemoselective oxidation of alcohols by hydrogen peroxide using a new synthesized copper complex as reusable heterogeneous nanocatalyst

“…As seen from Table 1 1), respectively, are consistent with the distances usually found for copper(II) compound with analogous ligands [33]. Square-pyramidal (SP) or a trigonal bipyramidal(TBP) geometry (or any of the distorted intermediate geometries) are two common structures for a five-coordinated Cu(II) center which can be evaluated by the Addison distortion index(τ) [34].…”

Highly ordered Nanomaterial Functionalized Copper Schiff Base Framework: Synthesis, Characterization, and Hydrogen Peroxide Decomposition Performance

“…Due to the biological essential activity of copper, its coordination chemistry has received significant attention. Particularly, a large number of Schiff base copper complexes have been developed to investigate their biological and catalytic potential [51][52][53][54]. The synthesis of a novel immobilized copper Schiff base complex was accomplished in three steps (Scheme 1).…”

Study on potential antitumor mechanism of a novel Schiff Base copper(II) complex: Synthesis, crystal structure, DNA binding, cytotoxicity and apoptosis induction activity

“…Schiff bases represent an important class of compounds in medicinal chemistry with great potential for antibacterial and chemotherapeutic application [25,26]. Schiff base Cu(II) complexes can show their antibacterial and antiproliferative activities because of the properties of the metal center or the coordinate ligands alone, as well as the structural and electronic properties which is ascribed to the coordination [27][28][29][30]. Recently, Reedjik and co-workers reported a novel Schiff base class of DNA binding and cleaving agents [31][32][33][34].…”
