Introduction
phy, positron emission tomography(PET), and magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) to cure a number of
diseases like heart, brain disorders, and cancer[15]. This
has prompted us to investigate the photocomplexation
of [Fe(CN)6]4 with imidazole. The choice of imidazole as ligand is because of its being efficient ligand.
Imidazole and its derivatives have been reported to
form complexes with various transition metal atoms
like Cu, Zn, etc.[1,16] The ligand is also biologically
important as it is present as a side chain in amino acid
histidine, which plays a vital role in the structure and
binding function of hemoglobin. Imidazole has become an important part of many pharmaceuticals.
Synthetic imidazoles are also present in many fungicides, antifungal, antiprotozoal, and antihypertensive
medications. Imidazole is part of the theophylline
molecule found in tea leaves and coffee beans,
which stimulates the central nervous system. It is
present in the anticancer medication mercaptopurine,
which combats leukemia by interfering with DNA
activities.

Conclusions
The photoinitiated synthesis of complex of potassium hexacyanoferrate with imidazole has successfully been accomplished. The substitution of aquo
ligand by imidazole has been confirmed by UV-Vis
spectra, FTIR, and 1H NMR. SEM shows the formation of hybrid complex with a stable structure. Thermal decomposition of the complex takes place in two
steps.
