Abstract

Schiff base play an important role in the development of Coordination Chemistry as they readily form stable coordination compounds with most of the transition metal ions. They are synthesized from the condensation of an amino compound with carbonyl compounds. This review article compiles most promising applied Schiff bases and their complexes with their applications in different areas of life. These coordination compounds have been characterized on the basis of elemental analyses, molecular weight, molar conductance, spectral (IR, reflectance, 1H NMR, ESR) and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The coordination compounds widely used as catalyst in various reactions. They also show excellent biological activities like antiinflammatory, scavenging, analgesic, antibiotic, antioxidative, antifungal, antibacterial, antiviral and enzymaticactivities. This review summarizes the chemistry and application of metal Schiff bases complexes.
