Abstract:
Because of their importance in a variety of interdisciplinary study domains, Schiff-base ligands have performed a significant role in the evolution of contemporary coordination chemistry. This almost-comprehensive review covers all the aspects and properties of complexes, starting from the Schiff-base ligands. Our work is centered on the eloquent advances that have been developed since 2015, with special consideration to recent developments. Schiff-base ligands and their complexes are adaptable compounds obtained from the condensation of two compounds: a carbonyl with an amino. The correspondent metal complexes have been shown to have antifungal, antibacterial, antioxidant, antiproliferative, and antiviral properties. This review begins with a short introduction to Schiff-base ligands and their metal complexes. It stands out in the recent advancements in the Schiff-base coordination chemistry domain and its future prospects as a potential bioactive core. Additionally, the review contains knowledge about the antioxidant, redox, and catalytic activities of the Schiff-base complexes, with important future applications in the obtaining of new compounds and materials.
