Synthesis, Characterization, and Antibacterial Properties of mixed ligand Complexes of (L-Leucine and 8-hydroxyquinoline) with some metals Ions

Abstract

The research includes the synthesis and identification of the mixed ligands complexes of M⁺² Ions  in general composition  Na[M(Leu)₂(Q)]

Where L-Leucine (C₆H₁₃NO₂)symbolized as( LeuH) as a primary ligand and 8-hydroxyqinoline,(C₉H₇NO₂) symbolized as (8-HQ) as  a secondary  ligand .

   The ligands and the metal chlorides were brought in to reaction at room temperature in ethanol as solvent. The reaction required the following molar ratio [(1:1:2) (metal): Q^-:2Leu^-] with M(II) ions, were                                      M(II)=Mn(II), Fe(II),Co(II),Ni(II),Cu(II),Zn(II),Pd(II),Sn(II) and Pb(II).
