Abstract
Thermal decomposition, X-ray diffraction pattern, infrared (IR) spectrum and antibacterial property of tris(1,2-diaminoethane)nickel(II)oxalate were studied before and after γ-irradiation. Irradiation enhanced thermal decomposition. From X-ray diffraction studies, unirradiated and irradiated samples of the complex are found to be tetragonal. A change in lattice parameters was observed upon irradiation. Position and intensity of IR bands of –NH2 and >C=O group were found to be changed upon irradiation. Antibacterial studies showed that irradiation induced activity towards B. cereus.
