Metal complexes of carnosine

The ligand properties of carnosine are analyzed. The stoichiometry, stability constants, and structural and spectroscopic characteristics of its coordination compounds with transition and representative metal cations are discussed. Mixed ligand systems containing carnosine are also presented. The bi...

Summary:The ligand properties of carnosine are analyzed. The stoichiometry, stability constants, and structural and spectroscopic characteristics of its coordination compounds with transition and representative metal cations are discussed. Mixed ligand systems containing carnosine are also presented. The biological activity of some of these metallic complexes is briefly considered.
