Abstract

Schiff base ligand (H3L) was prepared from the condensation reaction of protochatechualdehyde (3,4-dihydroxybenzaldhyde)with 2-amino phenol. From the direct reaction of the ligand (H3L) with Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) chlorides, and Fe(III)and Zn(II)nitrates in 2 M/1 L molar ratio, the five new neutral complexes were prepared. The characterization of the newly formed compounds was done by 1H NMR, UV–Vis, and IR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. The in vitro antibacterial activity of the metal complexes was studied and compared with that of free ligand.
