Summary: | 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. |
