Synthesis and characterisation of Schiff base complexes with Ti (III), Cr (III) and Ni (II)

New complexes of Ti (III) Cr (III) and Ni(II) with Schiff bases synthesised by condensation of Anthracene-9-carboxaldehyde with L-histidine, L-tryptophan, L-valine, L-methionine & L-glycine have been synthesised and characterised by elemental analyses, molar conductance, magnetic susceptibility measurement, thermogravimetric analysis, I.R. & electronic spectral studies. These complexes have been found to posses 1:2 (M.L.) Stoichiometry. The ligands and their corresponding complexes were screened for their antimicrobial activities.
