Synthesis, characterization of complexes of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) with 12-membered Schiff base tetraazamacrocyclic ligand and the study of their antimicrobial and reducing power
摘要:
Schiff base tetraazamacrocyclic ligand, L (C40H28N4) and its complexes of types, [MLX2] and [CuL]X-2 (M = Co(II), Ni(II), Zn(II); X = Cl-, NO3-) were synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, mass, H-1 NMR, IR, UV-vis, magnetic susceptibility and molar conductance data. An octahedral geometry has been proposed for all the complexes except the copper(H) complexes which have a square planar environment. The reducing power of the Co(II) and Cu(II) complexes have been checked and compared. The ligand (L) and its complexes have also been screened against different fungi and bacteria in vitro.
