Glimpses of Synthesis and Biological Applications of Metal - Dithiocarbamate Derivatives

Chandan Maurya

Abstract: Dithiocarbamates are organosulfur, highly versatile, monoanionic chelating ligands that can form stable complexes with transition metals and most of the main group, lanthanide and actinide elements. Metal- dithiocarbamate derivatives have wide range of applications including medicine. Many metal-dithiocarbamate derivatives have been synthesized and investigated for biological activities. In this review paper synthesis and study of biological activity of some of them, especially as antifungal, antibacterial, and antitumor agents has been discussed.

Keywords: Dithiocarbamate, antifungal, antibacterial, antitumor, antioxidant, insecticidal
