SYNTHETIC STRUCTURAL an‎d BIOCHEMICAL STUDIES OF COORDINATION COMPOUNDS OF BISMUTH (III) WITH SCHIFF BASES OF SULPHA DRUGS

The reactions of Bismuth trichloride with Schiff bases derived from sulpha drugs in 1:1 molar ratio leadsto the formation of a new series of coordination compound of Bismuth (III). Their structures have beenconfirmed on the basis of elemental analysis, ultraviolet, infrared and multinuclear magnetic resonance(1H, 13C) spectral studies. The anti microbial activities of the ligands and their coordination compoundhave been screened in vitro against the organism Escherichia coli, Stuplhylococus crureus, Prouteusmirabilis, Bacillus thuren giensis, penicilliurn cf.vsogenum, Aspergillns raiger and Fusarium Oxysporum
