This study investigates the effects of Pt and Ru complexes containing a Schiff base with a diimine structure on Alzheimer's disease. The Schiff base (N1E,N2E)-N1,N2-bis(isoquinolin-4-ylmethylene)benzene-1,2-diamine (I) and the novel Pt(II) and Ru(II) complexes (Ia and Ib) were synthesized and characterized using FTIR, NMR (H, C), mass spectrometry, and elemental analyses. Their ability to inhibit amyloid beta (Aβ) aggregation was determined in vitro using the SH-SY5Y cell line.
