Hydrothermal preparation and physicochemical studies of new copper nano-complexes for antitumor application

Two novel solid nanocomplexes [(Cu)2(L) (NO3)2(OH2)] (CuH) and [Cu(HL) (OH2)2(NO3)] (CuCTH) were synthesized by hydrothermal method in the absence and presence of surfactant (CTAB), respectively. The physicochemical properties of these two complexes were studied. The antimicrobial results and theoretical calculations confirm that CuCHT and its mixture with Zn nanocomplex are a promising nanomaterial for antituomer application.239
