Synthesis, Characterization and Antimicrobial Evaluation of Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) Schiff base complexes of (Z)-4-(1-pyridin-4-ylimino)propyl)phenol

Abstract

Phenols are antiseptic, disinfectants and are active against a wide range of microorganisms but are slowly effective against spores. They are used to relieve pains and irritation caused by sore throat, sore mouth or canker sores. 8 This research is aimed at synthesizing and characterizing Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) Schiff base complexes of (Z)-4-(1-pyridin-4ylimino)propyl)phenol and their antimicrobial activity.
