A Schiff base, 2-[4-(N,N-dimethylamino)benzylidene]benzoic acid has been synthesized by the condensation of 4-(N,N-dimethylamino)benzaldehyde and 2-amino-benzoic acid in 1:1 molar stoichiometry. The Schiff base complexes were synthesized from the chloride salts of Fe(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) in ethanolic medium and elucidated by infrared spectroscopy, CHN elemental analysis, atomic absorption spectroscopy as well as conductivity and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The solubility and thermal stability were also determined. The metal(II) complexes are coloured solids that are soluble in DMF and DMSO. The melting point of the Schiff base was found to be 177 oC, while the complexes decompose within a temperature range of 202–261 oC suggestive of rather good thermal stability. The molar conductance values were low, indicating non-electrolytic nature of the complexes. Elemental analysis revealed that the stoichiometries of the synthesized complexes are of 1:2 metal-to-ligand ratio. All complexes were hydrated. The spectroscopic and magnetic susceptibility data revealed that the complexes possess four- coordinate distorted square planar stereochemistry, whereas the Schiff base behaves as monoanionic bidentate ligand with the nitrogen atom of the azomethine (C=N) and carboxylate oxygen (COO-) as donor sites. The Schiff base and its corresponding metal(II) complexes were assayed against a number of bacterial and fungal strains to evaluate their inhibitory potentials. All the complexes showed significant bactericidal and fungicidal activities against the tested organisms.

Novel tetra dentate Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), VO(II) and Zn(II) Schiff base complexes have been synthesized from salicylidene-4-iminoantipyrine and tyrosine. The synthesized Schiff base complexes was characterized by powder X-ray diffraction studies (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), FT-IR, ESR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, UV-vis, molar conductance and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The general formula of complexes was confirmed as [ML] type [M = Cu(II), Co(II), Zn(II), Ni(II) and VO(II); L = C27H24N4O4]. Magnetic susceptibility, IR and UV-vis, spectral data showed that all the complexes have square planar geometry except vanadyl complex which suggests square pyramidal geometry. Lower molar conductance values proved that all the chelates were non-electrolytic nature. The X-band ESR spectra of [CuL] and [VOL] complexes in DMSO solution suggest that the complexes were predominant covalent character. Powder XRD and SEM image pattern evidenced that all the compounds were crystalline in nature and their size ranges from 100-40 nm. Calf thymus DNA binding potential of [CuL] and [VOL] complexes shows that the binding occurs through intercalation mode with low binding constant. The analgesic, CNS, antiulcer and antimicrobial activities of the investigated compounds report reveals that the chelates were significant effect than free Schiff base.

Manganese(II) complexes of Schiff bases; 2-acetylthiophene-4‑phenylthiosemi-carbazone (AT-PTSC) and 2-furylmethylketone-4-phenylthiosemi-carbazone  (AF‑PTSC) derived from condensation of 2-acetylthiophene and 2-furylmethylketone (2-acetylfuran) each with 4-phenylthiosemicarbazide in (1:1 molar ratio) ethanol, have been synthesized. The Schiff bases and the Mn(II) complexes were characterized on the basis of melting point/decomposition temperature, solubility, magnetic susceptibility, infrared spectra, molar conductance measurements,  elemental and gravimetric  analyses. The Mn(II) complexes show moderate values of decomposition temperatures. The Schiff bases and the complexes were soluble in some common organic solvents. Infrared spectral data of the Schiff bases and their complexes, indicate coordination of the Schiff bases to the metal(II) ion via azomethine nitrogen. The effective magnetic moment of the Mn(II) complexes suggested an octahedral geometry. The molar conductance values of the complexes show that the complexes are electrolytes. The results of the elemental analysis of the ligands and their complexes are in good agreement with the calculated values, suggesting a 1:2 (metal-ligand) ratio. Antimicrobial screenings of the ligands and their complexes were conducted against gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus,) and two gram-negative (Salmonella typhi, and Escherichia coli) bacteria specie. Also three fungi mainly (Candida albicans, Mucus indicus and Aspergillus flavus) were tested. The results showed that both the ligands and the complexes are active against the bacteria and the fungi specie. Keywords: Ligand, Schiff base, 4-phenylthiosemicarbazide, 2-acetylthiophene, 2-acetylfuran molar conductivity, magnetic susceptibility, elemental analysis.

In this article, four new Schiff base complexes of Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes have been synthesized with two different compositions as [M(L)2Cl2] · nH2O and [M(L)2(H2O)2]Cl2 · nH2O [where L1 = benzoin-o-amino benzoic acid (aromatic β amino acid) and L2 = benzoin bromo-o-amino benzoic acid (aromatic β amino acid); M = MnII, CoII, NiII and CuII; n = 1, 2 and 4]. These Schiff base complexes were discussed by many tool of analyses like elemental analysis, magnetic susceptibility, molar conductance, mass spectra, infrared spectra "IR," proton nuclear magnetic resonance "1H-NMR," electronic spectral and thermogravimetric analysis (TG/DTG). These complexes have an electrolytic nature within range of 78–174 Ω1 cm–1 mol –1 based on conductance measurements. Magnetic moment and electronic spectral results deduced that the geometry of Mn2+, Co2+ and Ni2+ and Cu2+ complexes has an octahedral configuration. The number of coordinated and uncoordinated water molecules for the synthesized complexes were calculated based on the thermal analysis technique. The kinetic thermodynamic data were estimated by using commonly integral equations of Horowitz-Metzger (HM) and Coats-Redfern (CR). In vitro the antimicrobial activity of both free L1 and L2 ligands in comparable with their metal complexes were evaluated. This study was strengthen by molecular docking against three protein receptors, which attributing to selected organisms already used in vitro study.

The present paper deals with the synthesis and characterization of metal complexes of Schiff base derived from xipamide, a diuretic drug. The bidentate ligand is derived from the inserted condensation of 5-aminosulfonyl-4-chloro-N-2,6-dimethyl phenyl-2-hydroxybenzamide (Xipamide) with salicylaldehyde in a 1 : 1 molar ratio. Using this bidentate ligand, complexes of Hg(II), Zn(II), and VO(IV) with general formula ML2 have been synthesized. The synthesized complexes were characterized by several techniques using molar conductance, elemental analysis, magnetic susceptibility, FT-IR spectroscopy, electronic spectra, mass spectra, and particle size analysis. The elemental analysis data suggest the stoichiometry to be 1 : 2 [M : L]. All the complexes are nonelectrolytic in nature as suggested by molar conductance measurements. Infrared spectral data indicate the coordination between the ligand and the central metal ion through deprotonated phenolic oxygen and azomethine nitrogen atoms. Spectral studies suggest tetrahedral geometry for Hg(II), Zn(II) complexes, and square pyramidal geometry for VO(IV) complex. The pure drug, synthesized ligand, and metal complexes were screened for their antifungal activities against Aspergillus niger and Aspergillus flavus. The ligand and its Hg(II) and VO(IV) complexes were screened for their diuretic activity too.

Schiff base of 4-methyl-o-phenylenediamine and 2-hyroxy-1-napthaldehyde was synthesized and was used to prepare some metal (II) complex by refluxing with Metal (II) chloride ions. The ligand and its complexes were characterized by melting point and decomposition temperature, FTIR, solubility, magnetic susceptibility, conductivity measurement and elemental analysis. The IR spectral data revealed that, the  Schiff base coordinated to the respective metal(II) ion through the azomethine nitrogen and phenolic oxygen due to the shifting  of the azomethine band υ(C = N) from 591cm–1 to 1603 and 1581cm-1 in the spectra of the complexes. The band at 567 and 563cm-1 were due to υ(M–N), and 729-752cm–1 due to υ(M–O) and the infrared spectra of the metal(II) complexes showed strong bands 3443 and 3363cm–1 suggesting the presence of coordinated water in the metal complexes. Molar conductance values determined 9.17 and 10.04W–1cm2mol–1 showed that, the complexes were non-electrolytes. The ligand and its metal (II) complexes are not soluble in water and most organic solvents except DMF and DMSO. The melting point of the ligand and the decomposition temperatures of the metal (II) complexes were 243 and 224oC, which indicated their good thermal stability. The magnetic moment values of the metal (II) complexes obtained were 5.65 and 5.22BM for Mn(II) and Fe(II) complexes. This positive values indicated that they were paramagnetic. The elemental analysis suggested a metal to ligand ratio of 1:2. The antibacterial and antifungal test carried out on the ligand and its metal(II) complexes sowed moderate activity.

Schiff base derived from 2-aminophenol and 2-hydroxy-6-methoxy-3-quinolinecarboxaldehyde and its Co(II) and Ni(II) complexes were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, melting point and decomposition temperature, molar conductivity, IR spectral analysis, AAS analysis, solubility test, and magnetic susceptibility. The FTIR spectral data of the Schiff base determined showed a band at 1622cm-1  which was assigned to the v(C=N), a feature of azomethine group. The same band was observed to shift to lower frequencies 1577 and 1599cm-1 in the complexes suggesting coordination of the Schiff base with the respective metal (II) ions. Molar conductance values 14.58 and 12.65Ω-1cm2mol-1show that the metal complexes were non-electrolytic in nature. The magnetic susceptibility of the complexes were determined and the gram magnetic susceptibility of the complexes were found to be positive, revealing that they are paramagnetic. The elemental analysis of the complexes for C, N and H determined suggested (1:1) metal to ligand ratio.  The result of the antimicrobial studiesthat, the metal (II) complexes exhibited higher antibacterial and antifungal activity than the Schiff base but lower than the reference drugs Amoxicillin and Ketoconazole used as control in all cases.
