Abstract

SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.

Abstract

Many different applications for coordination compounds can be found in human life, as they possess numerous interesting properties. Metal complexes consist of a central metal atom or ion known as a coordination center and binding molecules or ions in the surrounding environment called ligands. Metal ions have special qualities that can be used in medicinal inorganic chemistry to create novel medications. Drugs containing metals are useful in many medical applications, such as diagnosis and treatment. Here, we have covered the uses of metal complexes, particularly those involving enclosed metal ions, or cage metal complexes, in the biochemical and medical industries.
