“…It has been shown that the activities of silversulfonamide complexes are superior to those of the sulfonamides alone or silver nitrate salts in most of the therapy cases (Baenziger & Struss, 1976;Miller et al, 2012). The crystal structures of metal-sulfadiazine with a coligand, such as 2,2 0bipyridine (Cabaleiro et al, 2000; Beloso et al, 2003; He et al, 2010), 4,4 0 -dimethyl-2,2 0 -bipyridine (Hossain & Amoroso, 2012), 1,10-phenanthroline (Hu et al, 2012), pyridine (Wang, Li et al, 2009;Wang, Zou et al, 2010), have also been reported, all of which were mononuclear. To contribute to the studies of metal-sulfadiazine complexes, we report here the synthesis and characterization of a cobalt(II) complex with sulfadiazine (HL) and 1,3-bis(pyridin-4-yl)propane (bpp), viz.…”
