Ninety Cr(III) macrocyclic Schiff base complexes of the type [CrL_n^(1-10) X_2 ]X(Where X = Cl- or NO-3 or CH3COO- and = macrocyclic Schiff base ligands derived from condensation of trimesic acid or p-phthalic acid or squaric acid with different aliphatic diamines) have been synthesised and characterised by elemental analysis; molar conductance; electronic spectra; IR; magnetic moment and XPS i.e. X-ray Photoelectron spectra data. An octahedral geometry was established for them.

Coupling reaction between aryl halide and terminal alkyne in Sonogashira coupling reaction is important due to its extensive application in the resynthesis of natural products, production of drugs, dyes, and polymers. Efforts to increase rate of reaction has involved exploration of new catalysts. The current catalysts such as phosphine-based complexes are costly, air-sensitive and environmentally harmful. Nickel(II) Schiff base complexes were synthesized by reacting aromatic Schiff base ligands 2,2'-((1E,1'E)-(1,2-phenylenebis(azanylylidene))bis(metha-nylylidene))diphenol (L1H), 2,2'-((1E,1'E)-(1,2-phenylenebis(azanylylidene))bis(methanylylidene))bis(4-fluorophenol) (L1F), and 2,2'-((1E,1'E)-(1,2-phenylenebis(azanylylidene))bis-(methanylylidene))bis(4-methylphenol) (L1M) with nickel(II) acetate tetrahydrate to form NiL1H, NiL1F and NiL1M. The chemical structures were elucidated through physicochemical and spectral techniques namely elemental analysis, melting point, FTIR, 1H and 13C NMR, magnetic susceptibility and molar conductivity. All nickel(II) complexes were tested as catalysts in homogenous Sonogashira reaction between iodobenzene and phenylacetylene in DMSO for 12 hours at 140 oC. NiLF, a new nickel(II) complex, converted the highest percentage of iodobenzene (91%) while NiLH and NiLC converted 78% and 83% of iodobenzene, respectively. 


A set of ruthenium complexes of +3 oxidation state were synthesized with the available ruthenium precursors and the synthesized Schiff base ligands. The complexes are formed by the substitution of the ligand in the octahedral metal precursors. Samples are characterized using analytical as well as spectroscopic techniques. To ascertain pharmacological properties binding study with DNA were carried out. Further, cleavage studies were performed with gel electrophoresis. The in vitro antitumor property was analysed in HeLa tumor cell lines.

A new series of heterocyclic Schiff bases were prepared from condensation of 1-phenyl-3-methyl-4-acetyl/benzoyl-pyrazolone with 4,4′-diaminodiphenylmethane and 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl ether, resulting in the formation of four novel Schiff base ligands. These ligands were then treated with ethanolic solution of PdCl2, to form corresponding palladium(II) complexes. These complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, 1H NMR, TGA, magnetic susceptibility measurements and UV-visible absorption spectroscopy. All the Pd(II) complexes were found to have one coordinated water molecule. Schiff base ligands chelated with the metal atom through two donor sites N and O of azomethine (-C=N-) and phenolic (-OH) groups, respectively.
