Spectroscopic and biological characterization of the palladium(II) and platinum(II) complexes with benzoxazole and 2-methylbenzoxazole

Studies on Palladium(II) Complexes Containing Multidentate N-heterocycles

“…The bands may be assigned to the 1 A 1g → 1 B 1g transition arising out of four-coordinate square planar stereochemistry. [14][15][16] The spectral data for the complexes along with the assignments are compiled in Table 2. Coordination induced shifts (c.i.s.)…”

Synthesis and structural characterization of Pd(II) complexes derived from perimidine ligand and their in vitro antimicrobial studies

“…[1][2][3][4]. Among heterocycles, perimidine and its derivatives have received considerable attention as they have high p stacking ability, electron affinity, and reduction potential, and also exhibit diverse range of biological activities for example their potential to act as an anti-tumor, antiulcer, anti-malarial, and anti-fungal agents.…”

Oxazoles revisited: On the nature of binding of benzoxazole and 2-methylbenzoxazole with the zinc and palladium halides

“…4,5 This latter conclusion was supported by later work from Ponticelli et al who, using similar reasoning, suggested that Mebox and box showed an identical bonding differential in the chemistry of Pt(II) and Pd(II) halide and pseudo-halide complexes. 6 However, none of these materials was ever unequivocally characterised by single crystal X-ray diffraction experiments. Sometime later, both Sinha and Tewari 7 and (independently) Peyronel and Giusti 8 concluded that the IR evidence could also be interpreted as suggesting a k 1 N type bonding for both box and Mebox but once again crystallographic characterisation data was not forthcoming.…”
