Synthesis, characterization, biological evaluation, and computational studies of novel metal complexes derived from 1-isopropyl-1H-benzimidazole-2-carbaldehyde and tri-substituted imidazole
Two novel Ni(II) and Cu(II) mixed-ligand complexes, NiMBIM and CuMBIM, were successfully synthesized using 1-isopropyl-1H-benzimidazole-2-carbaldehyde (MB) and 2-(4,5-diphenyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)phenol (IM). Their structures were characterized via CHN elemental analysis, UV–Vis and FT-IR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry,...
