摘要：Some novel transition metal [Cu (II), Ni (II) and Zn (II)] complexes of substituted pyridine Schiff-bases have been prepared and characterized by physical, spectral and analytical data. The synthesized Schiff-bases act as deprotonated tridentate for the complexation reaction with Cu (II), Ni (II) and Zn(II) ions. In order to evaluate the effect of metal ions upon chelation, the Schiff bases and their complexes have been screened for antibacterial activity against the strains such as Escherichia coli, Staphylococcusaureus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The complexed Schiff bases have shown to be more antibacterial against one more bacterial species as compared to uncomplexed Schiff-bases. Keywords: Schiff base, Transition metal complexesof Cu (II), Ni (II).
