As it is proved that the transition metal complexes have drug activities, hence we have synthesized heterocyclic Schiff bases. Six complexes of Co(II), Ni(II), Fe(III), Mn(II), Cr(II) and Cu(II) Schiff bases have been prepared. All ligands and its metal complexes the structures of the complexes have been proposed by analytical data, conductivity measurement, magnetic moment, IR, 1H NMR spectra and thermal studies. Analytical data confirmed 1:2 (metal:ligand) stoichiometry and the spectral data suggest that all Fe(III), Mn(II), Cr(II), Ni(II) and Co(II) complexes have octahedral geometry where as the Cu(II) metal complex shows the square planar geometry. The molar conductance values of metal complexes suggest their non electrolytic nature. The IR spectral data reveals that the ligand behaves as bidentate with O,N donor atoms sequence towards central metal ion. Antibacterial and antifungal activities of ligands and its metal complexes were performed in vitro against E.coli, S. typhi, S. aureus, B. subtilis and against various fungi like P.chrysogenum, A. niger, F. moniliformae, and A.Flavus. The complexes show more activity compare to the ligand.
