Ar. Sarkar et M. Sarkar, CADMIUM(II) COMPLEX WITH L-CARNOSINE AS A LIGAND AND THE TAUTOMERIC CHANGE OF THE IMIDAZOLE MOIETY UPON COMPLEXATION, Journal of chemical research. Synopses, (8), 1997, pp. 304-305
L-Carnosine functions as a quadridentate ligand in a novel cadmium(II)
complex in which the imidazole moiety of the ligand undergoes tautome
ric change during complex formation; the process has been characterise
d by infrared and C-13 NMR spectroscopy.
