Adsorption of the heavy metal ions onto biosorbents: A review
Heavy metal pollution in result of human activities such as mining has become a critical environmental issue nowadays. Various methods for removing heavy metal from industrial wastewater have been investigated. This paper reviews an economic and environment friendly process known as biosorption. Biosorption is a potential alternative to the conventional treatment processes such as adsorption on activated carbon. Some factors ... Read more

Synthesis, theoretical investigations, biocidal screening, DNA binding, in vitro cytotoxicity and molecular docking of novel Cu (II), Pd (II) and Ag (I) complexes
Three new Cu(II), Pd(II) and Ag(I) complexes with bi-dentate Schiff base ligand "HL" namely 2-[(4-Chloro-benzylidene)-amino]-phenol were synthesized. The stoichiometric ratios and physicochemical properties of these complexes were determined using elemental analyses (C, H, and N), magnetic measurements, IR, UV-Vis spectra, molar conductivity and thermal analyses. The results revealed that the metal ions coordinated with ligand HL through azomethine nitrogen and ... Read more

Design, Synthesis, Characterization and biological application of some new Schiff Base Cu(II), Pd(II) and Ag(I) Complexes
In this investigation, new Cu(II), Pd(II) and Ag(I) complexes with the tetra-dentate DSPH Schiff base ligand were synthesized. The DSPH Schiff base and its complexes were characterized by using different physicochemical and spectral analysis. The results revealed that the metal ions coordinated with DSPH ligand through azomethine nitrogen and phenolic oxygen. Cu(II), Pd(II) and Ag(I) complexes are present in a ... Read more

New palladium (II) and silver (I) Schiff base complexes Promising antibiotic and anticancer agents
Some new complexes derived from Ag (I) and Pd(II) metal ions and HNA imine ligand (L) _i.e. _(2-[(6-Allylidene-2-hydroxy-cyclohexa-1,3-dienylmethylene)-amino]-benzoic acid) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductance, magnetic susceptibility measurements, IR, NMR and electronic spectral studies.

Synthesis, Characterization and Biological Studies of Some new Cr(III), Fe(III) and Cu(II) Complexes based on Multi-Substituted  Aryl Imidazole ligand
New Cr (III), Fe (III) and Cu (II) complexes with MSBB (2‐(1‐butyl‐4,5 diphenyl‐1H‐imidazol‐2‐yl)(4-bromophenol) were synthesized. The multi-substituted aryl imidazole ligand (MSBB) and its complexes were characterized by using elemental and thermal analysis, molar conductivity, magnetic susceptibility, UV-Vis spectral data, IR, and NMR. The obtained data showed that prepared complexes were 1 :1 (metal : ligand) ratio, octahedral (Oh) for all ... Read more

The synthesis of CuO and NiO nanoparticles by facile thermal decomposition of metal-Schiff base complexes and an examination of their electric, thermoelectric and magnetic Properties

The corrosion inhibition of the investigated inhibitors towards carbon steel in 15% HCl ... Read more

Three novel Ni(II), VO(II) and Cr(III) mononuclear complexes: Synthesis, structural characterization, DNA interaction, antimicrobial evaluation and anticancer activity
Three novel Cr(III),VO(II) and Ni(II) imine complexes derived from the condensation of 2‐aminophenol (AP) with 2‐hydroxynaphthaldehyde (HN) were synthesized. The prepared HNAP imine ligand and its complexes were investigated via various physicochemical tools. The results suggest that the parent ligand behaves as a dibasic tridentate ONO ligand, when coordinated to Cr(III) in octahedral and to Ni(II) in tetrahedral geometry. In ... Read more

Design and nonlinear optical properties (NLO) using DFT approach of new chelates for DNA interaction, antimicrobial, anticancer activities and molecular docking studies
