Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Cu, Ni, Mn and Zn Complexes - Azithromycin

New Schiff base complexes of Copper, Nickel, Manganese and Zinc derived from Azithromycin with salicylaldehyde have been synthesized. Complexes was synthesized and physico-chemically characterized by solubility testing, melting point and FTIR. The synthesized metal complex was evaluated for antibacterial activity against the multidrug resistant pathogens, such as Gram-negative Escherichia coli and Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus and antifungal activity in opposition to Aspergillus niger and Aspergillus flavus. The metal complex showed the significant antibacterial and antifungal activity in comparison with free ligand.
