Structural Characterization and Cytotoxic Activity of New Metal Complexes of Benzohydrazide Oxime Ligand |Biomedgrid

New binary metal (I)/(II) complexes derived from benzohydrazide oxime ligand were prepared. Physicochemical studies (IR, UV-Vis, Mass,1HNMR, Magnetic Moment, Thermal analysis, conductivity, ESR) revealed that, the ligand coordinates to the metal ion in a neutral bidentate or neutral hexadentate mode through nitrogen atoms of amino and oxime groups and oxygen atom of the amide group. All metal complexes are nonelectrolytic in nature as suggested by molar conductance measurements. The complexes are adopted to be a linear as Ag (I) complex or tetragonal distorted octahedral geometry around the metal ions.
