Synthesis, characterization and antimicrobial activity of transition metal complexes of 5-(propoxymethyl-8-quinolinol) (PMQ)

Mixed ligand complexes of transition metal with 8-quinolinols and 5-Alkoxymethyl-8-quinolinol have been prepared. Structural, spectroscopic and thermal properties have been studied on the basis of infrared spectra, Mass spectra, NMR spectra, electronic spectra, and elemental analyses. The ligands, metal salts, complexes, control and standard drug were tested for their antimicrobial activity. The metal complexes exhibit good activity against Bacterial strains Gram +ve and Gram –ve and fungal strains compared with parental compounds and moderate compared with the standard drugs
