Abstract
The synthesis of a tetradentate nitrogen donor macrocyclic ligand i.e. 2,5,11,14,19,20-hexaaza-3,12-dimethyl-4,13-dipropyl-tricyclo[13.3.1.1(6-10)]cosane-1(19),2,4,6(20),7,9,11,13,15,17-decaene and its complexes with manganese(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II) have been reported. The complexes were characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductance measurements, magnetic susceptibility measurements, mass, 1H-n.m.r. (Ligand), i.r., electronic, and e.p.r. spectral studies. On the basis of molar conductance the complexes may be formulated as [M(L)X2] [where M = Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II), and X = Cl− & NO −3 ] due to their nonelectrolytic nature in dimethylformamide (DMF). All the complexes are of the high spin type and are six coordinated. On the basis of i.r., electronic and e.p.r. spectral studies an octahedral geometry has been deduced for Mn(II), Co(II) and Ni(II) complexes, and tetragonal geometry for Cu(II) complexes. The antimicrobial activities of the ligand and its complexes, as growth inhibiting agents, have been screened in vitro against several species of bacteria and plant pathogenic fungi.
