Transition metal complexes of 2-acetylpyridine o-hydroxybenzoylhydrazone (APo-OHBH): their preparation, characterisation and antimicrobial activity.
Coordination compounds of some transition metal ions with 2-acetylpyridene-o-hydroxybenzoylhydrazone (APo-OHBH) were synthesized. Their structures have been characterised by elemental analyses, electrical conductance, magnetic moments (at 25 degrees C) and spectral (IR, UV, NMR) studies. The fast atom bombardment (FAB) method was used for obtaining mass spectra of the positive ion FAB studies of the ligand and some metal complexes. The thermal behaviour of selected complexes was investigated by thermal gravimetrical analysis (TGA) and differential thermal analysis (DTA) techniques. The IR spectra show that the ligand acts in a neutral bidentate, neutral tridentate and/or mononegative tridentate fashion depending on the metal salt used and the medium of the reaction. Preliminary pharmacological tests on the ligand and its complexes showed some antimicrobial activity.
