Abstract

Two precursors and their complexes with pentadentate ligand were synthesised by green approach and it were interpreted by UV-VIS, FT-IR, ESR spectroscopy and conductivity measurements. The electrochemical behaviour was investigated by cyclic voltammetry for the complexes. The ligand and complexes were subjected to antimicrobial studies. A correlation of these data suggested that the complexes are of the type [MLR] where H3L is the pentadentate ligand and R= [C6H5COO] & R= [C6H4COO(OH)] in complex-I&II respectively.
