Abstract
Two isostructural azido-bridged trinuclear zinc(II) complexes with the Schiff base 2-[(3-dimethylaminopropylimino)methyl]-6-ethoxyphenol were synthesized and structurally characterized by elemental analysis (C, H, N), FT-IR spectra, and single crystal X-ray diffraction. Both complexes possess crystallographic two-fold rotation axis symmetry. The central Zn atom in each complex is six-coordinated in an octahedral geometry, while the terminal Zn atoms in each complex are five-coordinated in distorted square pyramidal geometries. The antibacterial activity of the complexes and the Schiff base against the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus anthracis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Streptococcus agalactiae was investigated.
