    Abstract:
    Salen ligands comprising of o-phenylenediamine (salop) and p-phenylenediamine (salpp) have been synthesized. The salen ligand, salop undergo Schiff base reaction with Formaldehyde and Barbituric acid to generate novel polymeric Schiff base, SBOPA in one instance while the second salen ligand, salpp on Schiff base reaction with formaldehyde and piperazine gives another novel polymeric Schiff base, SBPBA. These polymeric Schiff base ligands, SBOPA and SBPBA generates polymeric metal complexes in high yields on reaction with transition metal acetates, M(CH3COO)2.xH2O where M = Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II). The polymeric Schiff bases, SBOPA and SBPBA and their transition metal complexes were systematically characterized, using various spectroscopic techniques. The structure, composition and geometry of SBOPA and SBPBA and their metal complexes were confirmed by spectral techniques (FT-IR, and 1H NMR), elemental analysis, and electronic spectra magnetic moment. On the basis of FT-IR, 1HNMR, electronic spectra and magnetic moment values Mn(II), Co(II) and Ni(II) ion were found to have octahedral geometry while Cu(II) and Zn(II) were found to be square-planar in nature. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) was used to evaluate their thermal behaviour and Cu(II)-SBOPA and Cu(II)-SBPBA were found to be thermally most stable. The polymeric Schiff base ligands, SBOPA and SBPBA and their metal complexes have also been screened for their plausible antimicrobial activity. Tetracyclin and Miconazole were used as standard drug to study the antibacterial and antifungal activity respectively. The Cu(II)-SBOPA and Cu(II)-SBPBA were found to be most potent antimicrobial agents.
