ABSTRACT
Ruthenium(II) complexes of mixed ligands (benzothiazolyl Schiff base, PPh3, and AsPh3) have been synthesized. Structural features of the ligands and complexes were determined by various physico-chemical and spectral techniques. In order to ascertain the potential of the above-synthesized compounds towards biomolecular interactions, titration experiments involving interaction with calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) were carried out. A gel electrophoresis pictogram demonstrated the ability of the complexes to cleave the CT-DNA. The ligands and complexes have shown significant antioxidant activity.
