Abstract

Various research paper indicates that the Schiff base and their metal chelates have Antibacterial and Antifungal activity. In this study of Ti(IV), Zr(IV),Cd(II) and Hg(II) metal chelates were synthesized and they were characterized by analytical, magnetic,Infrared, Electronic, 1HNMR and X-ray spectral study. The synthesized Schiff base ligand and its metal chelates were screened against Antibacterial and Antifungal activities.
