A series of 1:1 adducts of bis(morpholinedithiocarbamato) complex of VO(IV), 1:1 and 1:2 adducts of bis(morpholinedithiocarbamato) complexes of Ni(II) and Cu(II) with piperidine and morpholine have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductance, magnetic susceptibility, IR, UV-Vis, and TGA/DTA techniques. Analytical data reveals that VO(IV) complex forms only 1:1 adducts with the formula [VO(morphdtc)2L].H2O while Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes form both 1:1 and 1:2 adducts with 1:1 adducts having general formula Ni(morphdtc)2.L and Cu(morphdtc)2.L and 1:2 adducts having general formula Ni(morphdtc)2.L2and Cu(morphdtc)2.L2(morphdtc = morpholinedithiocarbamate, L = morpholine and piperidine). Antifungal activity of some complexes has been carried out against the fungal strainFusarium oxysporium. Thermal studies indicate a continuous weight loss. A square pyramidal geometry has been proposed for the 1:1 adducts of Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes while an octahedral geometry has been proposed for the 1:1 adducts of VO(IV) and for the 1:2 adducts of Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes.

Two new 1:1 adducts of VO(dedtc) 2 , two 1:1 and two 1:2 adducts of Cu(dedtc) 2 (where dedtc = diethyldithiocarbamate) with n-propylamine and isopropylamine have been prepared. The resulting complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductance, magnetic susceptibility, IR and UV-Vis spectral and TGA/DTA techniques. Analytical data reveals that VO(IV) complex forms only 1:1 adducts with the formula [VO(dedtc) 2 L] while Cu(II) complex forms both 1:1 and 1:2 adducts with 1:1 adducts having general formula Cu(dedtc) 2 . L and 1:2 adducts having general formula Cu(dedtc) 2 .L 2 (L = n-propylamine and isopropylamine). Antifungal activity of some complexes has been carried out against the fungal strain Sclerotium rolfsii. Electronic and magnetic measurements indicate a square pyramidal geometry for the 1:1 adducts of Cu(II) complex and an octahedral geometry for the 1:1 adducts of VO(IV) complex and for the 1:2 adducts of Cu(II) complex.
