Synthesis & characterization of transition metals complexes with ferrocenyl schiff bases
Schiff bases and their complexes are versatile compounds synthesized from the condensation of an amino compound with carbonyl compounds and widely used for industrial purposes and also exhibit a broad range of biological activities including antifungal, antibacterial, antimalarial, antiproliferative, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, and antipyretic properties. A few ferrocenyl Schiff bases have been isolated by the condensation of Formyl ferrocene and acetyl ferrocene with 4-methyl ortho-phenylene diamine, orthoamino naphthol and ortho-amino naphthoic acid.
