The interaction of Zn2+, Mn2+, Hg2+, and Cd2+ ions with 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid was investigated by potentiometric titrations in aqueous 0.1 M KNO3 medium. In all cases the formation of 1:1 complex was indicated. The stability constants in the pH ranges 4.5–8.0, 4.5–8.0, 5.0–8.0, and 5.5–8.0 were determined by applying the Calvin and Melchior's extension of Bjerrum's method and the log K values were found to be 3.70, 2.95, 3.20, and 2.85, respectively. A comparative study of the complexes of 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid with other bivalent metal ions has also been incorporated. The stability constants of the transition metal complexes obey the order Cu > Ni > Co > Zn > Mn, in agreement with Irving and William's rule.

New series of copper (II), cobalt (II), zinc (II), nickel (II), manganese (II), iron (II) complexes of a novel Schiff base were prepared by the condensation of sulphadizine and pyridoxal hydrochloride. The ligand and metal complexes were characterized by utilizing different instrumental procedures like microanalysis, thermogravimetric examination and spectroscopy. The integrated ligand and transition metal complexes were screened against various bacteria and fungus. The studies demonstrated the enhanced activity of metal complexes against reported microbes when compared with free ligand.
