Biological and Spectral Studies of Newly Synthesized Triazole Schiff Bases and Their Si(IV)‎, Sn(IV)‎ Complexes

Abstract EN

The Schiff bases HL1-3 have been prepared by the reaction of 5-bromothiophene-2-carboxaldehyde with 4-amino-5-mercapto-3-methyl/propyl/isopropyl-s-triazole, respectively.

Organosilicon(IV) and organotin(IV) complexes of formulae (CH3)2MCl(L1-3), (CH3)2M(L1-3)2 were synthesized from the reaction of (CH3)2MCl2 and the Schiff bases in 1 : 1 and 1 : 2 molar ratio, where M=Si and Sn.

The synthesized Schiff bases and their metal complexes have been characterized with the aid of various physicochemical techniques like elemental analyses, molar conductance, UV, IR, 1H, 13C, 29Si, and 119Sn NMR spectroscopy.

Based on these studies, the trigonal bipyramidal and octahedral geometries have been proposed for these complexes.

The ligands and their metal complexes have been screened in vitro against some bacteria and fungi.
