The Department of Chemistry at the College of Science, University of Mosul, discussed a Master’s thesis entitled:<\/p>\n

“Binuclear Schiff Base Complexes Derived from 1,8-Diaminonaphthalene: Synthesis, Characterization, and Theoretical Study”<\/strong><\/p>\n

on Monday, February 9, 2026.<\/p>\n

The thesis was presented by Jinar Ahmed Hussein<\/strong> from the Department of Chemistry. The study focused on the synthesis of a series of novel tetradentate Schiff base ligands derived through condensation reactions of the primary amine compound 1,8-diaminonaphthalene<\/strong> with suitable aldehydes or ketones under carefully controlled reaction conditions.<\/p>\n

The research also included the preparation of binuclear metal complexes of these ligands with selected metal ions, followed by comprehensive characterization using various analytical and spectroscopic techniques. In addition, a theoretical investigation was conducted employing the Molecular Docking<\/strong> technique.<\/p>\n

The study further evaluated the biological activity of several synthesized ligands and their complexes against breast cancer<\/strong> and colon cancer<\/strong>, as well as their antioxidant activity using the DPPH assay<\/strong>, highlighting their potential for future medical and environmental applications.<\/p>\n

This thesis aligns with several Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)<\/strong>, particularly Goal 3 (Good Health and Well-being)<\/strong> through the investigation of biologically active compounds with potential medical applications, Goal 9 (Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure)<\/strong> by promoting scientific research and innovation in coordination chemistry and theoretical studies, and Goal 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production)<\/strong> through the development of potentially applicable chemical compounds using well-designed synthetic approaches.<\/p>\n
