Carbon monoxide is an important signaling molecule which is produced by heme oxygenase-1. CO shows antiproliferative activity against cancer cells; hence, activation of HO-1 is a significant inhibition strategy against ...

In this study, we reported the synthesis of a new series of Silver(I)-N-heterocyclic carbene complexes which were obtained from the corresponding new N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) precursors. All new compounds were characterized ...

Novel manganese(I) carbonyl complexes of the general formula [Mn(CO)(3)(bpy)L]PF6 (bpy = 2,2-bipyridyl, L = N-(2-methylbenzyl)imidazoline, N-(3-methylbenzyl)imidazoline, N-(4-methylbenzyl)imidazoline, N-(2,4,6-trimethylb ...

The reaction of N-substituted benzimidazole with 4-bromobutyronitrile gives the corresponding benzimidazolium salts as N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) precursors. Silver(I) carbene complexes are synthesized by the reaction ...

Synthesis of CO-releasing molecules that safely deposit/transport CO has attracted great attention after the discovery of therapeutic properties of carbon monoxide, which is known to be a toxic gas. Metal carbonyl complexes ...

Benzimidazole derivative molecules attract attention of scientists due to their bioactivities. The dramatic changes in recorded activities according to the type and position of the substituents motivate synthesis and ...

Metal carbonyl complexes are prominent group organometallic compounds because of their applications in industrial and pharmaceutical chemistry. In recent years, metal carbonyl complexes have been accepted major for storage ...

A series of symmetrical and nonsymmetricalN,N-disubstituted benzimidazolium salts were synthesized asN-heterocyclic carbene precursors. These salts were treated with Ag2O to afford their corresponding mononuclear Ag(I)-NHC ...

Microorganisms attach to surfaces and interfaces and form biofilms which create a sheltered area for host cell response. Therefore, biofilms provide troubles in fields such as medicine, food, and pharmaceuticals. Inhibition ...
