Studies of Transition Metal Complexes and Their Antibacterial Activities

Tetraaza Macrocyclic complexes of transition metals of Ni (II), Cu(II), Cr(III), Fe(III), Mn(II) were synthesized in methanolic media by template method. The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, UVVis, Infrared spectroscopy. In vitro antibacterial activity of macrocyclic complexes against five bacteria i.e. Streptococcus mutans, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococ...

Transition Metal Imido Complexes

A wide range of transition metal imido (TMI) complexes is studied using ab initio molecular orbital (MO) calculations. The main computational point of interest is the further testing of effective core potentials (ECPs) and valence basis sets to allow for the accurate calculation of properties for reasonably sized transition metal complexes. On the chemical side, several results from the study a...

Dipyridyl β-diketonate complexes and their use as metalloligands in the formation of mixed-metal coordination networks.

The iron(III) and aluminium(III) complexes of 1,3-di(4-pyridyl)propane-1,3-dionato (dppd) and 1,3-di(3-pyridyl)propane-1,3-dionato (dmppd), [Fe(dppd)(3)] 1, [Fe(dmppd)(3)] 2, [Al(dppd)(3)] 3 and [Al(dmppd)(3)] 4 have been prepared. These complexes adopt molecular structures in which the metal centres contain distorted octahedral geometries. In contrast, the copper(II) and zinc(II) complexes [Cu...

Metal Hydrides: Transition Metal Hydride Complexes

Solid-state metal hydrides provide a safe and efficient way of storing hydrogen (Schlapbach 2002). They are commercialized for use in rechargeable batteries and developed for energy conversion devices such as fuel cells (see Hydrogen Metal Systems: Electrochemical Reactions). A great majority of metal hydrides derives from intermetallic compounds and alloys (see Hydrogen Metal Systems: Hydride ...
