GREEN SYNTHESIS, CHARACTERISATION, MIC, AND BIOACTIVITY OF DOPED COBALT METAL TARTRATE COMPLEXES

Novel mixed transition metal complexes MnCo2(C4H4O6)36H2O and NiCo2(C4H4O6)36H2O are synthesized using green approach, these tartrate act as a bidentate ligand. For characterisation of complexes elemental analysis, FTIR, XRD, TGA, and SEM with EDAX techniques were used. Analytical data shows that all complexes exhibited 1:1 (metal: ligand) ratio. IR spectral data shows that bidentate ligand coordinate with metal ion as bidentate ligand through the two ‘O’ atoms. The TGA of the complexes showed good agreement with their suggested formulae. XRD technique shows that all the complexes found to be in polycrystalline nature. SEM shows morphological features and surface characteristics of complexes. The synthesised complexes tested for antibacterial and antifungal activity to check the physiological activity and characterized for its application in the synthesis of heterocyclic compounds as catalysts.
