Abstract
The last few decades have seen enormous advances in the area of bioinorganic chemistry, attracting scientists from various disciplines including chemistry, biology, agriculture and medicine. Metals are very important constituents preferred by nature that function in bio-chemical method for living organisms. Metal complexes are essential in the area of catalysis, material science, photochemistry and bio systems. Medicinal chemistry may exploit the unique feature of metal ions in concern with design of new drugs. The recent advancement in emerging field of inorganic chemistry, the act of transition metal complexes as therapeutic compound has becoming increasingly important. From the survey of literature inorganic chemistry have made possible formation that leads to number of transition metal complexes having organiclig and can be used as therapeutic agent. The present review paper focus the scope and recent progress in the area of bioinorganic chemistry with new opportunities to the synthesis of metal-based drugs.Keywords
