Abstract
Novel silver(I)- and Mercury(II)-N-Heterocyclic Carbene (NHC) Complexes of pincer ligands were successfully
synthesized in good yields. The prepared complexes were then used for the transmetallation reactions to
synthesize the required Nickel(II)- and Palladium(II)-NHC complexes. All the synthesized compounds were
characterized by various spectroscopic and analytical techniques. X-ray crystallographic technique was used to
determine the structural orientations of the molecules. The compounds were tested for possible biological and
catalytic behavior. Silver(l) and palladium(lI) complexes showed excellent antibacterial and anticancer results.
