A new series of transition metal complexes of Cu(II),Ni(II),Co(II), Zn(II) and VO(IV) have been synthesized from the Schiff base ligand (L) derived from 4-amino antipyrine and 5- bromo salicylaldehyde. The structural features of Schiff base and metal complexes were determined from their elemental analyses, thermogravimetric studies, magneticsusceptibility, molar conductivity, ESI-Mass, IR, UV-VIS,1H NMR and ESR spectral studies. The data show that the complexes have composition of ML2type. The UV-VIS, magnetic susceptibility and ESR spectral data suggest an octahedral geometry around the central metal ion. Biological screening of the complexes reveals that the Schiff base transition metal complexes show significant activity against microorganisms. Binding of Co(II) complex with calf thymus DNA (CT DNA) was studied by spectral methods.

A new series of transition metal complexes of Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II) and Zn(II) have been designed and synthesized using a Schiff base (L) derived from 4-aminoantipyrine, benzaldehyde and o-phenylenediamine. The structural features were derived from their elemental analyses, magnetic susceptibility and molar conductivity, as well as from mass, IR, UV-Vis, 1H-NMR and ESR spectral studies. The FAB mass spectral data and elemental analyses showed that the complexes had a composition of the ML type. The UV-Vis and ESR spectral data of the complexes suggested a square-planar geometry around the central metal ion. The magnetic susceptibility values of the complexes indicated that they were monomeric in nature. Antimicrobial screening tests were also performed against four bacteria, viz. Salmonella typhi, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Bacillus subtilis and three fungi, viz. Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus flavus and Rhizoctonia bataicola. These data gave good results in the presence of metal ion in the ligand system. The nuclease activity of the above metal complexes shows that only the copper complex cleaves CT DNA in the presence of an oxidant.

The study describes the synthesis, characterization and biological activity of a novel Schiff base ligand and its transition metal complexes. The Schiff base ligand was obtained by a condensation reaction between 4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde (p-vanillin) and hydrazine hydrate using ethanol as solvent. A new series of Ni(II) and Fe(III) complexes were also derived by reaction of prepared Schiff base ligand with NiCl2 and FeCl3. Both the ligand and its metal complexes were characterized by solubility, melting point and elemental analysis. These compounds were further identified by analytical techniques, FTIR, NMR and mass spectrometry. The ligand and its transition metal complexes were also subjected to in vitro biological activities i.e. antimicrobial, antiangiogenic and DNA photo cleavage. For antimicrobial activity compounds were tested against two strains of bacteria and two strains of fungi. Different concentrations of prepared compounds were treated with fertilized chicken eggs and plasmid DNA to find out antiangiogenic and DNA photocleavage activity, respectively.

A series of novel binuclear transition metal complexes was synthesized by reaction of a Schiff base ligand (1-Methyl-2-(2-oxo-1,2-dihydro-pyrimidin-4-ylimino)-propylideneamino-acetic acid) (LaH) derived from 4-amino-pyrimidine-2-one, diacetyl, glycine and corresponding chloride salt of Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II) and Zn(II) metals in 1:1 (metal : ligand) molar ratio. The compounds were characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductance measurement, magnetic moment measurement and various spectral studies viz. IR, UV-visible, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, EPR and ESI-MS. Molar conductance measurement data revealed non-electrolytic nature of metal complexes. Electronic absorption spectral data, electronic paramagnetic resonance parameters and magnetic moment values revealed an octahedral geometry for binuclear metal complexes. Cyclic voltammetric study of Ni(II) complex shows a couple of one electron anodic responses near 0.70 V and 1.10 V. In vitro biological activity of Schiff base ligand and binuclear complexes has been checked against bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhi) and fungi (Candida albicans and Candida parapsilosis) to assess their antibacterial and antifungal properties.

Transition metal complexes of Cu(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Zn(II), Cd(II) and Mn(II) have been synthesized with the Schiff base ligand 5-Sub-N-(2-mercaptophenyl)salicylideneimine. Elemental analysis of these complexes suggest that these metal ions forms complexes of type ML(H2O)stoichiometry for Cu(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Zn(II), Cd(II) and Mn(II). The ligand behaves as tridentate and forms coordinate bonds through O, S and N atoms. Magnetic susceptibility, IR, UV – Visible, Mass and ESR spectral studies suggest that Cu(II), Ni(II) complexes posses square planar geometry, whereas Co(II), Zn(II), Cd(II) and Mn(II) complexes posses tetrahedral geometry. The complexes were tested for their antimicrobial activity against the bacterial strains Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis.The Schiff base metal complexes evaluated for their antifungal activity against the fungi A. niger and C. oxysporum. The DNA cleavage studies of Schiff base complexes werestudied using Calf – Thymus DNA by agarose gel electrophoresis method.
