Synthesis , Characterization and Antimicrobial Studies of Copper(Ii) and Nickel (Ii) Complexes with N-(4-Nitrobenzylidene)-N,N’-Dimethyl-4-Amino Antipyrine

ABSTRACT

The Schiff base ligand N-(4-nitrobenzylidiene)-N,N’-Dimethyl-4-aminoantipyrine was prepared by the condensation between 4-nitrobenzaldehyde and 4-aminoantipyrine.. The Cu and Ni complexes of the corresponding ligand were prepared and was characterized by different methods like IR, UV spectra, magnetic studies and CHN analysis . The antibacterial studies of copper and nickel complexes were also conducted.  From the CHN analysis and IR spectral data the structure of Cu complex is octahedral and Ni complex are found to be tetrahedral. The complexes were studied for its antibacterial activity.
