Abstract

Mixed ligand nickel(II), copper(II) and zinc(II) complexes of nicotinanilide and thiocyanate were prepared. Metal complexes were characterized by molar conductivity measurements, micro elemental analysis, FT-IR, UV-Visible spectroscopy, electrochemical and antimicrobial studies. The complexes are of 1: 2 (metal : ligand) stoichiometry and are non-electrolytes in solution. The structural analysis indicates a four-coordinated MN2S2 chromophore in a distorted tetrahedral geometry by two nicotinanilide and two thiocyanate ligands.
