dc.description.abstract | Six new Schiff base ligands derived from the condensation of 5-substituted 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde with 4-phenylsemicarbazide (HL1-HL6) and their copper (II) complexes were synthesized and characterized using melting point, 1 H NMR and Infrared (IR). IR data confirmed that the ligands coordinated to the metal ion in a bidentate manner through the azomethine nitrogen and carbonyl oxygen resulting in metal complexes with a 1: 2 metal: ligand ratio. The Schiff bases and copper complexes exhibited good in-vitro antibacterial activity against S. aureus and E. coli in ethyl acetate with zones of inhibition ranging from 9-27 mm indicating their potential as good broad spectrum antibacterial agents. | en_US |
