New metal complexes of azo ligand based on a monoterpene core: synthesis, structural characterization, antioxidants, and DNA-cleavage activity
New mononuclear complexes of Cr(III), Fe(III), Zn(II), Mo(IV), and Cd(II) have been designed and synthesized, utilizing a tridentate azo ligand, 1-(5-allyl-2-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)diazenyl)anthraquinone (H-L), derived from amino anthraquinone and the phenolic monoterpene (eugenol), known for its diverse pharmacologic...
