Abstract

Schiff base obtained from ceftazidime and thiophene-2-carbaldehyde reacts with transition metallic ions Co(II) and Ni(II) to give octahedral [ML2(H2O)2]Cl2 complexes. These complexes were characterized by physicochemical and spectroscopic methods. The spectra IR indicated that the ligand is a bidentate chelating agent. The molar conductivities of the complexes measured in DMF indicated their electrolyte nature. The antibacterial activity of the metal complexes was found to be better than that of free Schiff base.
