Biological Applications of Schiff base and its Metal Complexes-A Review

Sunil Kumar Tobriya

Abstract: Schiff Bases play an important role in Inorganic chemistry due to formation of very stable complexes with various transition and inner-Transition Metals. It has been extensively studied over past decades as Schiff bases provide potential sites for bio-chemically active compounds. This review is to summarize various Biological activities of Schiff Bases complexes as it has been recognized widely and Complexes may serve as biologically important species. Most of them show Biological activities such as antifungal, antibacterial, antimicrobial, and enzymatic activities.

Keywords: Antibacterial, Antifungal, Antimicrobial Biological activities, enzymatic activities, Schiff Bases
