| Abstract: |
A broad class of organic compounds known as Schiff bases (SBs) are distinguished by the
presence of carbon–nitrogen double bonds (–C=N–). They are generated by condensation
processes, usually with the aid of solvents like methanol, between primary amines and
aldehydes or ketones. The numerous biological actions of these substances, including their
antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant qualities, have attracted
a lot of research. Schiff bases are produced when primary amines react with aldehydes or
ketones. They have antioxidants, antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory
properties. In coordination chemistry, Schiff bases play a crucial role by creating stable metal
complexes with different metal ions. Pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, dyes, analytical
chemistry, catalysis, energy storage, environmental applications, chemo-sensing, bio-sensing,
and biomedical applications are just a few of the sectors that use Schiff bases. Because Schiff
bases may form stable complexes with metal ions, they are essential for both organic and
inorganic chemistry. Schiff bases with possible antiviral, antifungal, and antibacterial effects
have been the subject of recent research. To improve knowledge of their synthesis
procedures, synthetic schemes are developed.
