hydroxybenzylideneacetohydrazide}[H2L] was prepared from the reaction {2,2-

and Fe
+2
)metal ions in a 1:2 
(L:M
) mole ratio. Ligand and complexes were characterised via
spectroscopic analyses; [FT-IR, UV-Vis spectroscopy,
(C.H.N
) microanalysis, chloride content, thermal analysis(TG
),
electrospray mass, magnetic susceptibility and conductivity measurements. The characterisation data showed the six
coordinate complexes with the general formula;[M2
(L
)Cl4] 
(where M= Cr
+3
)and K2[M2
(L
)Cl4] 
(where M= Mn
+2
and
+2
Fe
).The ligand [H2L]   and its complexes were screened for their antimicrobial activity against four bacterial species
(Bacillus subtitles and  Staphylococcus aureus) G-positive ,
(Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa
) G-negative
and two fungi species(Candida and  trichomoniasis).  Biological data indicated that complexes become potentially
more active against several type of organism, under survey compared with the free lig and. |
