An efficient and environmentally benign method using microwave irradiation (MWI) have been applied for the synthesis of mononuclear square planar transition metal (II) [e.g. Co2+, Ni2+ and Cu2+] complexes with an unsymmetrical tetradentate bi-anionic Schiff base ligand. All the eco-friendly synthesized transition metal complexes were characterised by elemental analysis, conductivity & magnetic moment measurements and common spectroscopic methods (vis. IR, UV-Visible and 1H NMR spectroscopy respectively). The biological evaluation as anti-bacterial and human pathogenic anti-fungal activities of the investigating compounds show that the investigated complexes were found to be far active than the ligand towards tested microbes under the identical experimental conditions and the antimicrobial activity trend follows the order: Cu-complex > Co-complex > Ni-complex > Ligand

Two step synthesis of Schiff base ligand and its transition metal complexes was done by condensation reaction. In first step, the drug and aldehyde in equimolar ratio were refluxed for one hour at pH 8-9 in order to get Schiff base ligand. In second step, ligand and metal salts were refluxed for 2 hour. The ligand and Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), Fe(II), Mn(II), Zn(II) complexes were characterized by using different instruments like FT-IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, Mass, Atomic absorption spectrometer, Elemental analyzer, UV-visible spectrophotometer, Evans balance, Conductivitymeter and Thermogravimeter. In vitro antibacterial, antifungal and anti-inflammatory activities were also studied. The synthesized ligand and transition metal complexes were tested against Escherichia coli, Enterobacter aerogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus pumilus, Klebsiella oxytoca, Clostridium butyrium, Mucor and Aspergillus niger. These studies demonstrated the enhanced activity of metal complexes against reported bacterial and fungal strains when compared with free Schiff base ligand. The Cu(II) complex recognized as anti-inflammatory agent while the parent drug showed no activity.

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.

The title compound, [Cu(C14H15N2O)(NCS)], is a mononuclear copper(II) complex, with two molecules in the asymmetric unit. The CuII ion is coordinated by one O and two N atoms of a Schiff base ligand, and by one N atom of a thiocyanate anion, forming a square-planar geometry.
