Yellow fever (YF) is a viral disease that affects both humans and non-human primates (NHPs). Neotropical monkeys are more severely stricken by YF and the impact of the disease can be devastating to the endangered golden-headed lion tamarins (GHLTs, Leontopithecus chrysomelas). Susceptible GHLTs were immunized with the commercial Brazilian YF 17DD live attenuated vaccine or two other experimental non-replicating YF vaccines: a purified whole-virus, b-propiolactone-inactivated vaccine and a plant-derived recombinant subunit vaccine.

The idea of coordinating biologically active ligand systems to metal centers to exploit their synergistic effects has gained momentum. Therefore, in this report, three Ru complexes - of morpholine-derived thiosemicarbazone ligands have been prepared and characterized by spectroscopy and HRMS along with the structure of through a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study. The solution stability of - was tested using conventional techniques such as UV-vis and HRMS.
