Abstract
The new mononuclear metal complexes viz Mn(III), Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) have been synthesized by using tetradentate N2O2 donor symmetric schiff base 6,6’-((1E,1’E)-(1,2-phenylenebis(azanylylidene))bis(methanylylidene)) bis(5-isopropyl-2-methylphenol) HL and employing with corresponding metal chloride or acetate salts. After successful synthesis of compounds were thoroughly characterized by Elemental analysis, FT-IR, Uv-visible, NMR spectroscopy, LC-MS spectrometry, SEM analysis, Magnetic susceptibility measurement, Molar conductance, ESR spectroscopy. X-ray single crystal structure of HL schiff base has been determined. The synthesized compounds have been screened for their antimicrobial and antioxidant activities, which show significant results.
