Abstract
A new bicadmium (II) complexe with hydroxyisopropyl pendants was synthesized by [2+2] Schiff base condensation of 1‐[bis(3‐aminopropyl)amino]‐2‐propanol with sodium 2,6‐diformyl‐4‐Cl‐phenolate in the presence of Cd2+. Crystals of complex 1 were monoclinic, space group P21/c with a=15.136(6), b=17.713(7), c=17.609(7) Å and β=92.560(7)°. Cd(1) atom lies in an N3O3 coordination environment and possesses a distorted octahedral geometry. Cd(2) atom was hepta‐coordinated with the coordination surrounding of monocapped‐octahedral geometry. The toxicity of the complex was evaluated by testing antimicrobial activity against bacterial strands, such as Candida albicans, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus pumilus, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli.
