A new Schiff base (HL) generated from sulfamethazine (SMT), as well as its novel micro- and nanocomplexes with Ni(II) and Cd(II) metal ions, have been synthesized. The proposed structures of all isolated solid compounds were identified with physicochemical, spectral, and thermal techniques. Molar conductance studies confirmed that the metal complexes are not electrolytic.

The present investigation goal was to investigate the chemistry of four new mononuclear mixed ligand Fe(III), Co(II), Cu(II), and Cd(II) complexes constructed from furfural-type imine ligand (L), and the co ligand 2,2'-bipyridine in addition to assessing their antimicrobial activity against some bacterial, and fungi strains. The structure of the complexes was interpreted by different spectroscopic techniques such as MS, IR, H NMR, UV-Vis, elemental analysis, TG-DTG, conductivity, and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The correlation of all results revealed that ligand (L) acts as a neutral ONNO tetradentate whereas the co ligand acts as a neutral NN bidentate.

Herein, a simple and accurate spectrophotometric method was developed to detect gatifloxacin (HGAT) in a pure and ophthalmic formulation. The method depends on complexation of HGAT with Co (II), Ni (II) and La(III) ions in ethanol medium at room temperature. The experimental conditions have been investigated to reach optimum conditions for HGAT-metal ions interaction, including detection of a suitable wavelength, medium pH, reaction time and reactants concentration.

The reactions of isatin Girard's T hydrazone, N,N,N-trimethyl-2-oxo-2[(2z)-2-(2-oxo-1,2-dihydro-3H-indole-3-ylidene)hydrazino]ethan ammonium chloride (IGT) and isatin Girard's P hydrazone, 1-{2-oxo-2-[(2z)(2-oxo-1,2-dihydro-3H-indole-3-ylidene)hydrazine]ethyl} pyridinium chloride (IGP), with Fe(3+), Al(3+), Sb(3+) and Sn(2+) salts afford different types of complexes. The isolated solid complexes were characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductance, spectral (IR, UV-Vis, (1)H NMR, mass), magnetic moment and thermal measurements. The results suggest that all the complexes are conducting in polar solvents (EtOH, H2O and DMF).

Salicylidene (4-aminotoluene-3-sulfonic acid) Schiff base ligand H(2)L, and its binary and ternary Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes using 8-hydroxyquinoline (8-HOqu) and 2-aminopyridine (2-Ampy) as secondary ligands have been synthesised and characterized via elemental analysis, spectral data (IR, (1)H NMR, mass and solid reflectance), molar conductance, magnetic moment, TG-DSC measurements and XRPD analysis. Correlation of all spectroscopic data suggest that H(2)L ligand acts as monoanionic terdentate ligand with ONO sites coordinating to the metal ions via deprotonated phenolic-O, azomethine-N and sulfonate-O while 2-Ampy behaves as a neutral monodentate ligand via amino group-N and 8-HOqu behaves as a monoanionic bidentate ligand through the ring-N and deprotonated phenolic-O. The thermal behavior of these complexes shows that the coordinated water molecules were eliminated from the complexes at relatively higher temperatures than the hydrated water and there are two routes in removal of coordinated water molecules.

Rice hulls (RH) and bean hulls (BH) were subjected to prehydrolysis treatments, to define the optimum conditions for producing a high percentage of hydrolyzed hemicellulose with a small or moderate degradation of the cellulosic portion. The hydrolysis experiments were performed using hydrochloric and sulfuric acids in concentrations ranging from (0.5 to 5)% (w/w) at 120 degrees C for 90 min and 10% consistency.

Two Schiff base ligands bearing organic acid moiety, vis., N-(2-thienylmethylidene)-2-amino-4-chlorobenzoic acid (HL(1)) and N-(2-hydroxybenzylidene)-2-amino-4-chlorobenzoic acid (H(2)L(2)) have been synthesized by the interaction of 2-thiophenecarboxaldehyde and 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde with 2-amino-4-chlorobenzoic acid. Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes of these ligands have been prepared.

The synthesis and structural characterization of mixed ligand complexes derived from 2,6-pyridinedicarboxaldehydebis(o-hydroxyphenylimine), 2,6-pyridinedicarboxaldehydebis(p-hydroxyphenylimine) (1(ry) ligands) and 2-aminopyridne (2(ry) ligand) are reported. The ligands and their transition metal complexes were characterized on the bases of their elemental analyses, IR, solid reflectance, magnetic moment, molar conductance and thermal analysis (TGA). The mixed ligand complexes are formed in the 1:1:1 (M:L(1) or L(2):L') ratio as found from the elemental analyses and found to have the formulae [MX(2)(L(1) or L(2))(L')].
