Structural investigation of some novel synthesized Schiff base Transition metal complexes derived from drug together
1PCSIR Laboratories complex, Ferozepur Road, Lahore, Pakistan / Institute of Chemistry, University of the Punjab, Lahore, Pakistan.
Abstract:
A new series of copper (II), cobalt (II), zinc (II), nickel (II), manganese (II), iron (II) complexes with a novel Schiff base were synthesized by the condensation of sulphadizine and thiophene-2-carbaldehyde.The ligand and its complexes were characterized by using diverse instrumental procedures like microanalysis, thermo gravimetric examination and spectroscopy. The integrated ligand and its metal complexes were subjected to antibacterial studies. These studies demonstrated the enhanced activity of metal complexes against reported microbes with respect to the Schiff base.

Properties of Transition Metals
Crystal Field Theory - Octahedral Complexes
To explain the observed behavior of transition metal complexes (such as colors), a model involving electrostatic interactions between the electrons from the ligands and the electrons in the unhybridized d orbitals of the central metal atom has been developed. This electrostatic model is crystal field theory (CFT). It helps to understand, interpret, and predict the colors, magnetic behavior, and some structures of coordination compounds of transition metals.
CFT focuses on...
Metal-Ligand Bonds
In these complexes, transition metals form coordinate covalent bonds, a kind of Lewis acid-base interaction in which both of the electrons in the bond are contributed by a donor (Lewis base) to an electron acceptor (Lewis acid). The Lewis acid in...
