This paper reported series of complexes and their modes of coordination. The series consist of N,N,O-donor Schiff base formed by condensation reaction of 2-hydroxyacetophenone with 4-(2-aminoethyl)morpholine. The ligand and complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, NMR and UV/Visible spectroscopy. The complexes showed moderate cytotoxicity mediated on MCF-7 breast cancer cell line and were selective to some extent when compared to the WRL68 normal liver cell line.
Key words: Schiff bases metal complexes; Anticancer; MCF-7, WRL68.
