ABSTRACT
Mixed ligand complexes of Ni(II) and Cd(II) with phthalic acid or succinic acid and heterocyclic amines have been synthesized. The synthesized complexes were characterized by using elemental analysis, conductometric, magnetic moment measurements, electronic spectra and FTIR spectral studies. The complexes were found to be colored, non-electrolytic in nature. The results showed that the Ni(II) complexes were octahedral, while Cd(II) complexes were tetrahedral structure. Antibacterial and antifungal activities of synthesized mixed ligand complexes were studied.
Keywords: Mixed ligand complexes, FTIR, Electronic spectra, Antimicrobial activity.
