New s‐block complexes of 1,10‐phenanthroline and 1,3‐benzothizole‐2‐thiolate inhibit urease in silico and in vitro

The coordination chemistry of 1,10‐phenanthroline (phen) and sodium 1,3‐benzothiazole‐2‐thiolate (SBT) with selected s‐block elements has been investigated. Four metal complexes were prepared and their structures were characterized using a variety of analytical techniques including infrared, UV–visible, 1 H NMR and 13 C NMR spectroscopies, elemental analysis, mass spectrometry and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. The reactions of phen and SBT...
