Syntheses of a Series of Lactato Cobalt Complexes and Their Interaction with Bovine Serum Albumin

Abstract

A series of lactate cobalt complexes are synthesized and characterized by spectral and structural analyses, including [Co(Hlact)(2)(H(2)O)(2)]center dot H(2)O (1), [Co(Hlact)(2)(H(2)O)(2)] (2), [Co(Hlact)(phen)(H(2)O)(2)]Cl (3) and [Co(Hlact)(2) (Phen)]center dot 2H(2)O (4) (Lactic acid=H(2)lact; 1,10-phenanthroline=phen). Their interactions with Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) are investigated with infra-red spectra. CCDC: 819899.
