COORDINATION COMPOUNDS OF LITHIUM HALIDES WITH CERTAIN AMINO ACIDS

The characteristics of interaction between metal cations and organic molecules significantly affect the physical and biological properties of the coordination compounds. The coordination compounds of metals and their halides with organic ligands are of interest for the preparation of new materials with various optical, electrical, and magnetic properties. Among a variety of structurally diverse amino acid complexes with metals, halogens, and metal halides, lithium halides that form complexes with electron-donor molecules (amines, carboxylic acids) are of particular interest. The synthesis studies and investigation of the coordination compounds of lithium and its halides with amino acids provide a key basis for identifying and understanding the grounds for their biological activity.
