The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Ni(C(17)H(12)I(4)N(2)O(2))], comprises half of a Schiff base complex. The Ni(II) and central C atom of the propyl chain are located on a twofold rotation axis. The geometry around the Ni(II) atom is square planar, supported by the N(2)O(2) donor atoms of the coordinated ligand. In the crystal, there are no significant inter-molecular inter-actions pre...

Each mol-ecule of the title compound, C(12)H(18)N(4)O(6), is located on an inversion centre at the mid-point of the central N-N bond. The azo groups C=N of the Schiff base group have an E conformation and the azo groups in the oxime C=N-O groups have a Z conformation. O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link neighbouring mol-ecules into infinite monolayers perpendicular to the a axis.

In the title Schiff base, C(22)H(20)N(2)O(2), the benzene ring forms dihedral angles of 53.92 (1) and 3.62 (1)° with the two salicylaldimine groups. There are two strong O-H⋯N intra-molecular hydrogen bonds. The crystal packing is stabilized by weak inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds and π-π stacking inter-actions (average distance 3.39 Å).

We report the synthesis and characterization of a new heptanuclear cadmium cluster complex formed within a Schiff base macrocycle and study its surprising dimerization in the solid-state and solution to form capsules.

A simple Schiff base, 2-(2',4'-dihydroxybenzylidene)aminobenzeneboronic acid, was found to show a fluorescence enhancement in the presence of hydroxylated organotins in aqueous solution.

In the title complex, [CuEu(C(19)H(20)N(2)O(4))(NO(3))(3)], the Cu(II) ion is four-coordinated in a square-planar geometry by two O atoms and two N atoms of the deprotonated Schiff base. The Eu(III) atom is ten-coordinate, chelated by three nitrate groups and linked to the four O atoms of the deprotonated Schiff base.

In the title compound, [Cu(C(16)H(12)Br(2)N(2)O(2))], the Cu(II) atom is coordinated in a slightly distorted square-planar geometry by two O and two N atoms of the tetra-dentate dianionic 4,4'-dibromo-2,2'-[ethane-1,2-diylbis(nitrilo-methyl-idyne)]diphen-olate Schiff base ligand.

Eighteen Schiff Bases of 3-amino-2-methylquinazolin-4(3H)-ones were synthesised and screened for anti-inflammatory and diuretic activity. Anti-inflammatory activity was identified in PNG-1, PNG-13, PNG-14, PNG-15 and PNG-17.

Contrary to the stereotype, Jacobsen's catalyst, chiral (salcy)Co(III)OAc adopts an unusual binding mode. The tetradentate {ONNO} ligand does not form a square plane but wraps cobalt in a cis-β fashion while acetate is chelating.

BACKGROUND Indolinone and spiro-indoline derivatives have been employed in the preparation of different important therapeutic compounds required for treatment of anticonvulsants, antibacterial, Antitubercular, and anticancer activities. Schiff bases have been found to possess various pharmacological activities such as antitubercular, plant growth inhibiting, insecticsidal, central nerve system ...
