Synthesis, characterization and antimicrobial activity of Ni(II) and Zn(II) complexes with amino acids and heterocyclic amine

Mixed ligand complexes of Ni(II) and Zn(II) have been synthesized and characterized with amino acids and heterocyclic amine. The synthesized complexes were characterized on the basis of elemental analysis, conductometric, magnetic moment measurements, electronic spectra analysis, and FTIR spectral studies. The complexes are found to be colored, electrolytic and diamagnetic in nature. Our results indicate that the Ni(II) complexes are octahedralgeometry, while Zn(II) complexes are tetrahedral structure. The synthesized complexes showed remarkable antimicrobial activity.
