Spectral studies on copper(II) complexes of biologically active glutathione.
Copper(II) complexes of reduced glutathione (GSH) of general composition Na[Cu(L)(X)]*nH2O (where LH2=GSH; X=Cl-, NO3-, NCS-, CH3CO2-, HCO2-, ClO4- and n=0-4) have been prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, magnetic susceptibility measurements, IR spectroscopy, EPR spectroscopy and ligand-field spectroscopy. The EPR and ligand field spectra in the solid state suggest planar geometry for all the complexes.
