Abstract
Metal complexes play a vital role in inorganic and organic transformations. Schiff base (SB) and their metal complexes have emerged as versatile catalysts for numerous synthetic organic transformations. This chapter describes the numerous catalytic applications of SBs metal complexes for organic transformation. In recent years, the SB ligands and their metal complexes are employed as efficient catalysts for cross-coupling reactions such as Suzuki–Miyaura, Heck, Sonogashira, Buchwald–Hardwig, Negishi, Stile, and Kumada reactions in modern organic synthesis to generate C—C, C—N, C—O, and C—S bonds. The metal complex of SBs has been employed as an efficient catalyst for various types of polymerization reactions. Oxidation reaction is one of the most important reactions in organic synthesis and without this reaction, life would not exist.
