Abstract
<p>Schiff base ligands and their 3d-metal chelates have gained significant attention due to various applications in various scientific platforms. Due to their chelating propensity, they possess a wide range of biological, biochemical, catalytic, clinical, dying, and pharmacological properties.<strong> </strong>Here, in present studies,<strong> </strong>two novel Ni(II) and Zn(II) transition metal chelates have been synthesized by condensing their metal salts with Schiff base ligand 4-chloro-2-(2,5-dimethoxybenzylideneamino)-5-nitrophenol<strong> </strong>originated from 2,5-dimethoxybenzaldehyde and 2-amino-4-chloro-5-nitrophenol. The synthesized Schiff base ligand and its metal chelates have been Spectro-chemically examined by FT-IR, UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy, Mass Spectrometry, <sup>1</sup>HNMR, Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and Powdered-XRD. These compounds are biologically reactive and exhibit antifungal, antioxidant, and DNA-binding activity. The Ni(II) metal chelate gives better biological activity than the Zn(II) metal chelate and parent Schiff base ligand.</p>
