Abstract

To prepare a new ligand, many compounds were used to synthesize Schiff-Mannich base, such as isatin, Para chloro Aniline, 2-mercaptobenzimidazole and indole. The resulting compound 1-((2-((1H-indol-1-ylthio)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl)methyl)-3-(4-chlorophenylimino)indolin-2-one (L). (L) was used to create a series of metal ion complexes with Co (II), Ni (II), Cu (II), Pd (II), Pt (IV), and Au (III). C.H.N.S., FTIR, mass spectra UV-ViS, 1H-NMR, 13CNMR, magnetic moment, and molar conductivity were used to characterize all of these compounds. Except for the palladium(II) and gold(III) complexes, all of the produced complexes had an octahedral geometry, according to the data. The antibacterial activity of the produced compounds was tested by using gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria and fungi at a concentration 0.02M. The study showed that cobalt and nickel complexes are the most effective among them. Theoretical study was conducted using the Hyper-chem program to calculate the standard heat of formation and binding energy for all prepared compounds, in addition to calculating the highest occupied molecular orbital by electrons and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital, in addition to calculating the vibration frequencies for ligand.
