Transition metal complexes of 5-(iso-propoxymethyl-8-quinolinol), synthesis, characterization and comparative antimicrobial screening with PMQ metal complexes

Mixed ligand complexes of transition metal with 8-quinolinols and 5-Propoxymethyl-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 complexes, control and standard drug were tested for their antimicrobial activity. The metal complexes exhibit good activity against Bacterial strains two Gram +ve and two Gram –ve and two fungal strains compared with parental compounds and moderate in compared to the standard drugs.
