IMPORTANCE OF SCHIFF BASES AND THE METAL COMPLEXES

Abstract

Numerous organisms have been reported to have resistance to some antibacterial drugs currently in use. As a result, attempts are being made to replace these antibiotics. Consequently, considerable attention is being paid to the synthesis of new, more effective, and target-specific metal-based drugs. Thus, Schiff bases and their metal complexes have gained considerable attention because they are nitrogen-containing compounds that serve as a privileged heterocyclic scaffold due to their biological and pharmaceutical properties.
