Abstract

Co (II), Ni (II), Cu (II) and Zn (II) complexes of the Schiff base derived from indole-3-carboxaldehyde and m-nitro benzoic acid were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductance, IR, UV–Vis, magnetic moment, powder XRD and SEM. Powder XRD and SEM indicate the crystalline state and surface morphology studies of the complexes. The antimicrobial activity of the synthesized ligand and its complexes were screened by disc diffusion method.
