Synthesis, Optimization, Characterization and Antimicrobial Studies of Cu(II) and Co(III) Complexes of Bis(2,2/-methylylidenephenol)diaminoethane

A new synthetic extractive protocol for the synthesis of Cu(II) and Co(III) complexes of bis(2,2/-methylylidenephenol)diaminoethane (H2BMPDE) in a single simple step was performed. The obtained data indicated the formation of complexes with 1:1 molar ratio of metal:ligand, of distorted square planar...
