Ni(II) Complexes of 2-Imine-8-Hydroxyquinolines: Characterization, Albumin Binding and Cytotoxicity
Nickel(II) offers an appealing base for metallodrug design as it is abundant, inexpensive and forms well-defined complexes with N,O-donor ligands. Therefore, five Ni(II) complexes containing two tridentate 2-imine-8-hydroxyquinoline Schiff base ligands, derived from morpholine, piperidine, imidazole or 2-methyl-1H-limi...
