Abstract

Metal(II) complexes of hydrazine derived Schiff-base ligands of the type M(L)2Cl2 where M = Co, Cu, Ni and Zn and L = L1 and L2 have been prepared and characterised by molar conductance, magnetic moment, elemental analysis and electronic, IR, H-NMR and C13 spectral data.The different modes of chelation of the ligands and their comparative biological properties against different bacterial species are reported.
