Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) complexes of (4E)-4-[(2-{(E)-[1-(2,4-dihydroxyphenyl)ethylidene]amino}ethyl)imino]pentan-2-one have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductance, electronic and IR spectral studies, and XRD. FTIR confirmed the ligand coordinates the metal ion to form mononuclear complex via the oxygen and nitrogen atoms of the phenolic group and azomethine group, respectively. Tetrahedral geometry is proposed for Co(II) complex and square-planar geometry for Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes. The antibacterial studies of the compounds were determined and they show that the metal complexes are more active than the free ligands. The antioxidant activity by DPPH and ABTS method was examined and it shows Cu(II); IC50= 2.31 ± 1.54 µM for DPPH and Co(II); IC50= 1.83 ± 1.08 µM for ABTS were the most active.

A new series of metal ions complexes of VO(II), Cr(III), Mn(II), Zn(II), Cd(II) and Ce(III) have been synthesized from the Schiff bases (4-chlorobenzylidene)-urea amine (L1) and (4-bromobenzylidene)-urea amine (L2). Structural features were obtained from their elemental microanalyses, magnetic susceptibility, molar conductance, FT-IR, UV–Vis, LC-Mass and 1HNMR spectral studies. The UV–Vis, magnetic susceptibility and molar conductance data of the complexes suggest a tetrahedral geometry around the central metal ion except, VOII complexes that has square pyramidal geometry, but CrIII and CeIII octahedral geometry. The biological activity for the ligand (L1) and its Vanadium and Cadmium complexes were studied. Structural geometries of compounds also were suggested in gas phase by using theoretical treatments, using Hyper Chem-6 program for the molecular mechanics and semi-empirical calculations. The heat of formation (?Hf ?) and binding energy (?Eb) in the temperature of 298K for the free ligand (L1) and their metal complexes were calculated by PM3 and ZINDO/I methods. The electrostatic potential of the free ligands were calculated to investigate the reactive sites of the molecules.Bacteriological evaluation of considerable number of these compounds were maintained using organisms Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus,and they were found to exhibit the high effect of activity. This may be attributed to the impact of both the Schiff bases and the metal present in these complexes.

The synthesis, structure, electrochemistry, and biological studies of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) complexes of thiocarbohydrazone ligand are described. The ligand is synthesized starting from thiocarbohydrazide and isatin. It is evident from the IR data that in all the complexes, only one part of the ligand is coordinated to the metal ion resulting mononuclear complexes. The ligand coordinates essentially through the carbonyl oxygen of the isatin fragment, the nitrogen atom of the azomethine group, and sulfur atom after deprotonation to give five membered rings. H1 NMR spectrum of the ligand shows only one set of signals for the aromatic protons, while the NH of isatin and NH of hydrazone give rise to two different singlets in the 11–14 ppm range. The formulations, [Cu(L)Cl]·2H2O, [Cu(L)(CH3COO)]·2H2O, [Ni(L)Cl], [Ni(L)(CH3COO)], [Co(L2)], and [Zn(L2)]·2H2O are in accordance with elemental analyses, physical, and spectroscopic measurements. The complexes are soluble in organic solvents. Molar conductance values in DMF indicate the nonelectrolytic nature of the complexes. Copper complex displays quasireversible cyclic voltametric responses with Ep near −0.659 v and 0.504 v Vs Ag/AgCl at the scan rate of 0.1 V/s. Copper(II) complexes show a single line EPR signals. For the observed magnetic moment and electronic spectral data possible explanation has been discussed. From all the available data, the probable structures for the complexes have been proposed. The compounds synthesized in present study have shown promising cytotoxic activity when screened using the in vitro method and at the same time were shown to have good activity when tested using the Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC) model. The antimicrobial screening showed that the cobalt complex possesses enhanced antimicrobial activity towards fungi.

A series of metal complexes of Zn(II) and Hg(II) having the general composition [where L = 2-formylpyridine thiosemicarbazone; M = Zn(II) and Hg(II); X = , and ] have been prepared and characterized by elemental chemical analysis, molar conductance, and spectral (IR and mass) studies. The IR spectral data suggests the involvement of sulphur and azomethane nitrogen in coordination to the central metal ion. On the basis of spectral studies, a tetrahedral geometry has been assigned for Zn(II) and Hg(II) complexes. The free ligand and its metal complexes have been tested in vitro against a number of microorganisms in order to assess their antimicrobial properties.

A new Schiff base Co(II) complex and - peroxo complex were synthesized and characterized by thin layer chromatography (TLC), elemental analyses, magnetic moment, conductivity measurements, UV-Vis., IR and ESI-MS spectral studies. The cobalt ion was participated in direct complexation with the Schiff base (SB) ligand derived from o-aminobenzoic acid and cinnamaldehyde during the single pot reaction. IR spectral data showed that the Schiff base ligand coordinated to the metal ion through nitrogen of azomethine group and oxygen of carboxyl group (COO-). The molar conductance values indicated that both the complexes are non-electrolytic in nature. Antibacterial activity of the complexes was tested against four pathogenic bacteria namely Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, Escherichia coli & Shigella dysenteriae with standard Kanamycin-30. The results showed that both type of complexes have moderate to strong antibacterial activity and the peroxo complex is relatively more potential towards all the tested organisms.

The Schiff base was synthesized by condensation of 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde with 3- aminobenzoic acid in 1:1 molar ratio. The Schiff base ligand formed complexes with Co (II), Ni (II), Cu (II) and Zn (II) acetate via mechanochemical synthesis. The synthesized compounds were characterized by solubility test, thermal analysis, FT-IR, powder x-ray diffraction, molar conductance measurement, magnetic susceptibility and elemental analysis. The Schiff base has a melting point of 190 oC. The decomposition temperature of complexes was found to be in the range 289 – 302 oC. The Schiff base and its metal (II) complexes were soluble in DMF, DMSO and sparingly soluble in acetonitrile, chloroform, diethyl ether and insoluble in n-hexane which indicate the polar nature of the synthesized compounds. The IR spectral analysis of the free Schiff base shows a band at 1622 cm-1, assigned to v(C=N) stretching vibrations. This band was shifted in the spectra of complexes (1607 – 1633 cm-1), indicating coordination of the Schiff base to the metal ion through the azomethine group. The molar conductance of complexes determined are in the range 9.51 – 14.87 Ohm-1cm2mol-1 which indicate the non-electrolytic nature in DMF. Magnetic susceptibility measurements of Co (II), Ni (II) and Cu (II) complexes exhibit a magnetic moment in the range 1.25 – 3.08 BM. The values correspond to square-planar geometry. The magnetic moment value of Zn (II) complex indicates a diamagnetic behaviour. The elemental analysis of the complexes for C, H and N determined showed that the observed and the calculated percentages of the elements are in good agreement.

Objectives: The aim of our work was to synthesize novel mixed ligand-metal complexes and evaluation of antimicrobial, antioxidant assay, and analysis of catalytic oxidation of cyclohexane. Methods: The complexes were characterized by means of various physicochemical techniques such as elemental analysis, molar conductance, magnetic susceptibility, infrared (IR), electronic absorption, 1H NMR (proton magnetic resonance), and mass spectral studies. The antimicrobial screening study was done by disc diffusion method. The catalytic activity of the complexes was observed in the oxidation of cyclohexane using eco-friendly hydrogen peroxide as oxidant. Results: On comparing the 1H NMR and IR spectral data of free ligand and its complexes, it was found to be azomethine (CH=N) proton which is formed in the free ligand. During complexation, the azomethine proton is coordinated to the metal ion and the phenolic oxygen is coordinated to the metal ion by deprotonation. The analytical data and mass spectra of the ligand and the complexes confirm the stoichiometry of metal complexes as being of the (MLY)Cl type and the metal to ligand ratio is 1:1. The antimicrobial, antioxidant, and catalytic potential were evaluated and the result shows the better activity of the complexes than the ligand. Conclusion: It was found to be copper(II) and zinc(II) complexes which are effective against all the bacteria when compared to standard drug streptomycin. Copper(II) complex was found to be effective antibacterial agent against Aspergillus niger and Aspergillus flavus in comparison to the standard drug Nystatin. The zinc complex exhibited good catalytic activity.

New series of organotin(IV) complexes and Schiff bases derived from amino acids have been designed and synthesized from condensation of1H-indole-2,3-dione, 5-chloro-1H-indole-2,3-dione, andα-amino acids (phenylalanine, isoleucine, and glycine). All compounds are characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductance measurements, and molecular weight determinations. Bonding of these complexes is discussed in terms of their UV-visible, infrared, and nuclear magnetic resonance (1H,13C, and119Sn NMR) spectral studies. The results suggest that Schiff bases behave as monobasic bidentate ligands and coordinate with dibutyltin(IV) in octahedral geometry according to the general formula [Bu2Sn(L)2]. Elemental analyses and NMR spectral data of the ligands with their dibutyltin(IV) complexes agree with their proposed distorted octahedral structures. Few representative compounds are tested for their in vitro antibacterial activity against Gram-positive (B. cereus,Staphylococcusspp.) and Gram-negative (E. coli,Klebsiellaspp.) bacteria. The results show that the dibutyltin complexes are more reactive with respect to their corresponding Schiff base ligands.

A series of metal complexes of Cu(II) and Ni(II) having the general composition[M(L)X2]with benzil bis(thiosemicarbazone) has been prepared and characterized by element chemical analysis, molar conductance, magnetic susceptibility measurements, and spectral (electronic, IR, EPR, mass) studies. The IR spectral data suggest the involvement of sulphur and azomethane nitrogen in coordination to the central metal ion. On the basis of spectral studies, an octahedral geometry has been assigned for Ni(II) complexes but a tetragonal geometry for Cu(II) complexes. The free ligand and its metal complexes have been tested in vitro against a number of microorganisms in order to assess their antimicrobial properties.

Four new Schiff bases have been derived from the condensation of acenapthoquinone and naphthylamines in 1:2 molar ratios. These Schiff base ligands were used to synthesise novel mononuclear Ni(II) complexes with square planar geometry. The ligands and the complexes have been investigated by elemental analyses, spectroscopic methods (FT-IR and UV-Vis.,), molar conductance and magnetic susceptibility studies. The electrochemical properties of Ni(II) complexes have been studied by cyclic voltammetry technique. The catalytic efficacy of the complexes has been analysed in the oxidation of toluene to benzyl alcohol, using H2O2. Biological activities of these ligands and complexes were checked against selected bacterial strains (E. coli and S. Aureus).
