A Review Of Biological Applications Of Isoniazid Derived Schiff Base Complexes

Abstract

The condensation of an amino compound with carbonyl compounds synthesizes the Schiff bases and their complexes are reported for their wide range of biological activities. These complexes have special attention on activities such as antifungal, antibacterial, antiviral, antitumor and anticancer properties. In the recent years, these complexes have gained good attention because of their unique biological properties. The biological applications of these complexes are reported in the large extent in the recent years. Development of a new chemotherapeutic Schiff bases and their metal complexes is now attracting the attention of medicinal chemists. In this review, a small attempt to show some examples for the biological applications of the Schiff base complexes.
