“…Until now, different metal complexes, including manganese(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II), zinc(II), cadmium(II), tin(II) and silver(I) centres, with diclofenac in the presence of nitrogendonor ligands, have been investigated (Banti & Hadjikakou, 2016;Theodorou et al, 1999;Kovala-Demertzi, 2000;Caglar, Aydemir et al, 2014;Zampakou, Hatzidimitriou et al, 2015;Zampakou, Tangoulis et al, 2015;Dimiza et al, 2011;Hamamci Alisir et al, 2016Kyropoulou et al, 2013;Abu Ali et al, 2016;Refat et al, 2014). However, there are only a few reports related to mixed-ligand copper(II)-dicl complexes in the literature (Kumar et al, 2018;Caglar et al, 2013Caglar et al, , 2016Dimiza et al, 2011).…”
