Synthesis, characterization and bioactivities of Ni (II) and Co(II) complexes of benzyloxybenzaldehydethiosemicarbazone
Abstract
Ni(II)and Co(II) complexes of benzyloxybenzaldehydethiosemicarbazone(L) were prepared
and characterized by their physical, spectral and analytical data. The newly
synthesized metal complexes have a composition of [M(L)2X2], where
M= Co(II) or Ni(II) and X= Cl. The electronic spectral studies show an
octahedral geometry around Ni(II) and Co(II) complexes. The IR spectral data suggest
the involvement of sulphurand azomethane nitrogen in coordination with the
central metal ion. In order to evaluate the biological activity of the ligand
and its metal, complexes have been screened for their antibacterial and
antifungal activity against bacterial species like – B.subtilis andS.aureus(Gram-positive
bacteria) and E. coli, P. aeruginosa and P. vulgaris (Gram-negative bacteria)and
also fungal species like- Microsporumgypseum, Teloschistes villous, Aspergillus
fumigates and Candida albicans
