In this study, the first complexes of Zn(II) with the N-benzyloxycar- bonyl-S-alaninato ligand (N-Boc-S-ala) were synthesized. The new complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, conductometric measurements, IR, 1 H-NMR, 13 C-NMR and 2D-NMR spectroscopy. On the basis of the experi- mental data, tetrahedral geometry of the Zn(II) complexes was proposed. A very good agreement between the NMR and DFT calculated data was obtained. Investigation of antimicrobial activity of the newly synthesized complexes was also performed. It was established that (Zn(N-Boc-S-ala)2) was selective and acts only on Candida albicans.
