Copper(<scp>ii</scp>) complexes derived from naphthalene-based halogenated Schiff bases: synthesis, structural analysis, DFT computational studies and <i>in vitro</i> biological activities
Segun D. Oladipo, Robert C. Luckay
Abstract
Copper( ii ) complexes were synthesized and their structures solved. DFT studies complements their structures. Anti-diabetes, antioxidant and antibacterial potential was evaluated which shows very promising results compared to standard compounds.
