interference with microtubule polymerization results in cell cycle arrest leading to cell death. colchicine is a well-known microtubule polymerization inhibitor which does so by binding to a specific site on tubulin. a set of 3',4'-bis (substituted phenyl)-4'h-spiro[indene-2,5'-isoxazol]-1(3h)-one derivatives with known antiproliferative activities were evaluated for their t...

siilver tetrafluoroborate complex of 5.11.17.23-tetra-tert-butyl-25-26,27,28-tetrakis (diphenylphosphinoylmethoxy)calyx[4]arene (l) has been synthesized by reaction of silver tetrafluoroborate and l in dichloromethane at room temperature. the complex formed has a 1:1 metall/ligand ratio. 1h and 31p nmr data support an encapsulated structure of the complex in which silver ion is located inside t...

A new Schiff base ligand (L) obtained by the condensation reaction of N-acetylaceto-otoluidineand 2-aminopropanoic acid (an amino acid), is used to synthesize four mononuclearcomplexes of [MLCl] and [ML2] types (where M = Cu(II) and Zn(II); L = Schiff base) bykeeping the metal and ligand ratio as 1:1 and 1:2 respectively. This ligand and its complexeshave been characterized on the basis of diff...

A selected solid complex of the Schiff base ligand derived from Glutaric anhydride with Cu(II) ion was synthesized and characterized by FT-IR, Electronic, ESR Spectral Analyses, Magnetic susceptibility and Molar Conductance Measurements. The disappearance of ν(O-H) hydroxyl band of the phenolic and the lowering shift of the stretching frequency of the ν(CH=N) azomethine band in the ligand after...

The present work describes the studies on the coordination behaviour of 4[N-(benzalidene) amino]antipyrine semicarbazone (BAAPS) (I), 4[N-(furfural)amino]antipyrine semicarbazone (FFAAPS) (II) and 4[N-(cinnamalidene)amino]antipyrine semicarbazone (CAAPS) (III) in presence of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) or diphenyl sulfoxide (DPSO) towards Th4+ and UO22+ salts. All the complexes were isolate...

In the structure of the title compound, [Cu(2)(C(6)H(6)N(4))(2)(H(2)O)(2)]SO(4), the asymmetric unit contains half each of two 2,2'-diimidazole ligands, one Cu(+) cation, one water mol-ecule and half of a sulfate anion (2 symmetry). The dinuclear complex is completed through a twofold rotation axis, leading to a twisted ten-membered ring mol-ecule. The dihedral angle between the two symmetry-re...
