Synthesis Characterization and Biological Application of 2,3,4-Trimethoxy Benzaldehyde Semicarbazone Co(II) Metal Ions.

Abstract

Vidhya RS and Rathika Nath G

[Co(L4)2Cl2] were prepared by reacting 2,3,4-trimethoxy benzaldehyde semi carbazone ligands with CoCl2.6H2O. The IR, UV, Mass and 1H NMR spectra of the complexes have been assigned. Thermo gravimetric analysis were also carried out. The data agree quite well with the proposed structures and show that the complexes were finally decomposed to the corresponding ligands. Complexes were screened for antimicrobial activities by the disc diffusion technique using DMSO as solvent. The activity data show that the semi carbazone metal complexes are more potent antimicrobials metal complexes.
