Abstract

Schiff base ligands are able to coordinate metals through imine nitrogen and another group, usually linked to the aldehyde/ketone. A large number of Schiff bases and their complexes have been investigated for their interesting and important properties, such as their ability to reversibly bind oxygen, their catalytic activity in the hydrogenation of olefins, their photochromic properties and their complexing ability towards some toxic metals.
