Abstract:The Schiff base ligand, (E-N-((E)-3-phenylallylidene) aniline was prepared by from cinnamaldehyde with aniline via green route synthetic method. Reactions of the ligand with Mn(II) and Cu(II) precursors generate new complexes. The structures of the ligand and the new metal complexes were elucidated using various physicochemical measurements (FT-IR, NMR, Mass, UV-Vis, and elemental analyses). Further, the in vitro antibacterial and antifungal studies divulge that the Cu(II) complex exhibited potent activity ove… Show more
