Exploring the Antimicrobial Efficacy of Quinoline-Based Osmium Complexes

Abstract

Quinoline derivatives are widely recognized for their biological importance and physiological functions. In this work, osmium–quinoline complexes were synthesized and structurally characterized to assess their catalytic and biological roles. The complexes exhibited strong coordination ability, promising catalytic activity, and moderate antibacterial effects, underscoring the potential of quinoline-based systems in catalysis and medicinal chemistry.
