Synthesis, Characterization and Antibacterial Activity of Schiff Bases and their Metal Complexes Derived from 4-Acyl-1-phenyl-3-methyl-2-pyrazolin-5-ones and 2-Amino-4(4'-methylphenyl)-thiazole
Abstract
4-Acyl-1-phenyl-3-methyl-2-pyrazolin-5-ones condensed with 2-amino-4(4'-methylphenyl)-thiazole to form Schiff base. These Schiff bases from complexes of type ML22H2O (M=Mn, Fe, Co, Ni and Cu). Elemental analysis, magnetic susceptibility, electrical conductance, electronic and Infrared spectral data suggested octahedral structure for the complexes. All the compounds were tested for their antibacterial activity. The result indicates that the growth of the tested organism was inhibited by most of the compounds. These Schiff bases are characterized by elemental analysis, mass spectra, 1H-NMR spectra, 13C NMR spectra and FT IR spectra.
