Abstract

Anant Prakash and Shamim Ahmad

New complexes of Ti (III) Cu (II) and Ni(II) with Schiff bases obtained by condensation of Furan-2-Carboxaldehyde with L-histidine, L-tryptophan, L-valine, L-methionine & L-glycine have been synthesised and characterised. The complexes of Ti(III) have been found to posses 1:2 while the complexes of Ni(II) and Cu(II) have been found to posses 1:1 (M.L.) Stoichiometry. Coordination of azomethine nitrogen and furan ring oxygen in the schiff base to the metal has been proposed.The ligands and their corresponding complexes were screened for their antimicrobial activities.
