The fundamental electrochemical characteristics of a synthetic iron(III) Schiff base complex has been studied. It has been found that the complex could interact with oxygen, thus being capable of absorbing oxygen. It exhibits catalytic activity toward the electroreduction of oxygen. The complex also interacts strongly with dsDNA, in particular, the iron(II) form of the Schiff base complex is easier to bind dsDNa than the iron(III) form. The biological activity and the pharmacological acting process of the Schiff base complex might be related to its absorbing of oxygen, catalytic activity and interaction with DNA.
