Schiff base has been prepared by the condensation of 2-naphthylamine (NA) with 5bromosalicylaldehyde (BSA). The ligand (NABSA) was isolated and characterized. Metal complexes have been synthesized by the interaction of NABSA with metal ions viz. Co(II), Ni (II), and Cu(II) in 1:2 molar ratio respectively. These complexes have been characterized by FT-IR, electronic spectroscopy, conductance mea...

In this paper, we report the synthesis and characterization of a new symmetric macroacyclic Schiff base ligand (H2L) and related complexes with different metals. (H2L) was synthesized by the one pot condensation reaction of 2-[2-(2-formyl phenoxy)ethoxy]benzaldehyde and 2-aminobenzenethiol in a 1:2 molar ratio. The acyclic Schiff base was characterized by IR, NMR spectroscopy and elemental anal...

Metal chelates of Schiff base prepared by combining salicylaldehyde and amino acids could be effectively used in understanding the mechanism of transamination reaction. They can act as biomimetic species. The current article focused on the syntheses, characterization, complexation behaviour and antimicrobial studies of some novel Schiff bases formed from salicylaldehyde with 3-amino benzoic aci...

The title compound, [Cu(2)(C(14)H(13)N(2)O)(2)(N(3))(2)], was synthesized by the reaction of Cu(NO(3))(2)·3H(2)O with the Schiff base 2-[1-(2-pyridylmethyl-imino)eth-yl]phenol (HL) in methanol-water solution, adding NaN(3) as the bridging ligand. The asymmetric unit contains one half-mol-ecule, the other half being generated by the inversion center. Each Cu(II) atom shows a slightly distorted t...

In the title Schiff base complex, [Zn(C(14)H(9)Br(2)FNO)(2)], the Zn(II) atom is located on a twofold rotation axis and is coordinated by two O and two N atoms from two symmetry-related bidentate Schiff base ligands in a compressed tetrahedral geometry. The bond lengths and bond angles are within normal ranges. The dihedral angle between the least-squares planes of the aromatic rings within eac...

In the title compound, C(15)H(12)Cl(2)N(2)O(3)·CH(3)OH, the Schiff base mol-ecule is nearly planar, with a dihedral angle of 4.5 (2)° between the two benzene rings. An intra-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bond is observed. The methanol solvent mol-ecule is linked to the Schiff base mol-ecule through inter-molecular N-H⋯O and O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

The title complex, [Cu(C(12)H(16)NO(3))(2)], adopts a distorted square-planar coordination geometry with the Cu(II) ion situated on a crystallographic inversion center. The two Schiff base ligands are coordinated in a trans fashion. In the crystal structure, non-classical inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds involving the ether O atoms link the Schiff base mol-ecules into a two-dimensional netw...

In the title complex, [CuEr(C(19)H(20)N(2)O(4))(NO(3))(3)]·CH(3)COCH(3), the Cu(II) ion is coordinated in a square-planar environment by two O atoms and two N atoms of a Schiff base ligand. The Er(III) ion is bis-chelated by three nitrate ligands and coordinated by four O atoms of the Schiff base ligand in a slightly distorted bicapped square-anti-prismatic environment.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Zn(C(15)H(12)BrN(3)O(2)S)(C(12)H(12)N(2))]·C(3)H(7)NO, contains two independent mol-ecules with a similar structure. The doubly deprotonated Schiff base ligand O,N,S-chelates to the metal atom, and the three coordinating atoms along with one N atom of the substituted 2,2'-bipyridine ligand constitute the square plane of the distorted square pyramid su...

Schiff base, azetidinone and 4-thiazolidinone derivatives of para aminosalicylic acid were synthesised. It was planned to employ the structure based computer aided drug designing (CADD) to Schiff base, azetidinone and 4thiazolidinoneof para aminosalicylic acid. Approach was employed to understand the probable binding of para aminosalicylic acid on the active site of AMpC enzyme of HKY28 which w...
