Hydrogen production from biological processes has been hailed as a promising strategy for generating sustainable energy. Fermentative hydrogen production processes such as dark and photofermentation are considered more sustainable and economical than other biological methods such as biophotolysis. However, these methods have constraints such as low hydrogen yield and conversion efficiency, so practical implementations still need to be made.

A tridentate ONO donor bishydrazone ligand, 3-(((3-oxoindolin-2-ylidene)hydrazono) methyl)quinoxalin-2(1H)-one (L) was synthesized. Using the ligand, mononuclear metal complexes of the type [M(L)(OAc)] (M=Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II), OAc=-OCOCH) were synthesized. The newly synthesized compounds were thoroughly characterized by various analytical and spectral techniques.

Mononuclear Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes of an unsymmetric Schiff base ligand, 3-(-(3-(-3,5-dichloro-2-hydroxybenzylideneamino)propylimino)methyl)quinoxalin-2(1H) -one (L) were synthesized and characterized by various analytical and spectral techniques. The molar conductance values of metal complexes indicate non-electrolytic behavior of the metal complexes. The Schiff base act as tetra dentate ONNO donor ligand in Co(II), Ni(II), Zn(II) complexes and tridentate NNO donor in Cu(II) complex.
