Novel Triazine Centred Manganese Based Complex: A Photophysical and Biological Studies

Abstract

In this work, Mn(II) complex of triazine based ligand has been synthesized and characterized using various physico-chemical methods including C,H,N elemental analysis, FT-IR, 1H NMR and EI-mass analysis. The synthesized compounds serve as potential photoactive material as indicated from its characteristic fluorescent properties. The ligand and its metal complex were assayed for in vitro antimicrobial activity on four bacterial strains (S. aureus, B. subtilis, E. coli and K. pneumoniae) using well-diffusion method and it was observed that metal complex showed enhanced antimicrobial activity against all tested strains as compared to ligand.
