Schiff bases, formed by condensation of primary amines and carbonyl compounds, are versatile ligands featuring the azomethine (>C=N) group. Their synthesis is straightforward, often under mild conditions, yielding compounds with tunable structural and electronic properties, including chelating ability, thermal stability, and redox activity. These properties are enhanced upon coordination with transition metals, forming complexes with diverse geometries and improved biological profiles. This review examines recent advances in Schiff base synthesis and properties, emphasizing their metal complex
Read MorePalladium N2O2 Schiff base complexes are an exciting area in medicinal chemistry due to their unique structure and impressive biological activities. These compounds form when palladium salt coordinates with tetradentate Schiff base ligands that have two nitrogen and two oxygen donor atoms. They mostly take on a stable square planar shape. This clear coordination setup is key to their reliable interactions with biological targets. Research shows they have significant potential as therapeutic agents, especially in anticancer, antimicrobial, and antioxidant uses. Often, they are more effective th

The KOH route yielded a highly microporous structure (BET surface area 1103 m²/g⁻¹; pore volume 0.601 cm³/g), whereas HNO₃ enhanced oxygenated functional groups and FeCl₃ left behind iron species. In batch studies, the materials removed up to 95% of Mn²⁺ ions under favourable conditions. The adsorption process was better explained by

Increased evidence suggested that irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) patients are at higher risks in developing Parkinson’s Disease (PD). This study aimed to predict gene signatures and potential molecular networks linking IBS with PD. A total of five microarray datasets were obtained online at gene database Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO): GSE13367, GSE36701, GSE49126, GSE99039, and GSE28894. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were chosen for both PD and IBS bas
Read MoreSoursop is useful in treating diseases and the bioactive components of the fruit are beneficial in the treatment of gastrointestinal parasites. Annona muricata contains flavonoids, phenolic acids, and tannins in its leaves, pulp, and seeds. The current study provided an accurate analytical method for the pharmacologically active components, including glutathione, potassium, and vitamin B6, in soursop fruit samples of soursop using high-performance liquid chromatography and atomic absorption spectrometry. The fruits of the soursop were cleaned, peeled, and sliced into tiny pieces. The juice was
