Abstract:
The study deals with the diversity in structural and spectural characteristics of some transition metal complexes derived from aldehyde based thiosemicarbazone ligands thiosemicarbazones are a family of compounds with beneficial biological activity viz., anticancer,antitumour, antifungal, antibacterial, antimalarial, antifilarial, antiviral and anti-HIV activities. Many thiosemicarbazone ligands and their complexes have been prepared and screened for their antimicrobial activity against various types of fungi and bacteria. The results prove that the compounds exhibit antimicrobial properties and it is important to note that in some cases metal chelates show more inhibitory effects than the parent ligands. The increased lipophilicity of these complexes seems to be responsible for their enhanced biological potency. Adverse biological activities of thiosemicarbazones have been widely studied in rats and in other species. The parameters measured show that copper complexes caused considerable oxidative stress and zinc zinc complexes behaved as antioxidants. It has applications on analytical field also. Some thiosemicarbazones produce highly colored complexes with metal ions. This thesis aims to synthesis some novel thiosemicarbazone ligands and their transition metal complexes together with their physico-chemical characterization.

Abstract:
This thesis deals with the synthesis and charcterisation of some supported
transition metal complexes and their catalytic properties. Two industrially
important reactions were carried out: i) cyclohexanol oxidation and ii)
hydrodesulphurization of diesel. Thesis is divided into nine chapters. An
overview of the heterogenised homogeneous systems is given in Chapter 1.
Chapter 2 deals with the materials and methods used for the preparation and
characterisation. Details regarding the synthesis and characterisation of zeolite
encapsulated transition metal complexes are given in Chapter 3 to Chapter 7. In
Chapter 8, the results of catalytic activity studies of the cyclohexanol oxidation
using the zeolite encapsulated complexes are presented. Details of preparation of
hydrodesulphurization catalysts through the molecular designed dispersion
method, their characterization and catalytic activity studies are presented in
Chapter 9. References are given at the end of the thesis.

Abstract:
The thesis is an introduction to evaluate the coordination behaviour of a few
compounds of our interest. The crucial aim of these investigations was to
synthesize and characterize some transition metal complexes using the ligands
benzaldehyde, 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde and 4-methoxybenzaldehyde N(4)-ring
incorporated thiosemicarbazones.The study involves a brief foreword of the metal
complexes of thiosemicarbazones including their bonding, stereochemistry and
biological activities.The different analytical and spectroscopic techniques used for
the analysis of the ligands and their complexes are discussed.It also deals with the synthesis and spectral characterization of the
thiosemicarbazones and single crystal X-ray diffraction study of one of them.Chapter 3 describes the synthesis, spectral characterization, single crystal X-ray
diffraction studies of copper(ll) complexes with ONS/NS donor
thiosemicarbazones. Chapter 4 deals with the synthesis, spectral characterization
and single crystal X-ray diffraction studies of nickel(II) complexes. Chapter 5
contains the synthesis, structural and spectral characterization of the cobalt(III)
complexes. Chapters 6 and 7 include the synthesis, structural and spectral
characterization of zinc(II) and cadmium(ll) complexes with ONS/NS donor
thiosemicarbazones.

Abstract:
Two series of transition metal complexes of Schiff bases derived from
quinoxaline-2-carboxaldehyde with semicarbazide (QSC) and furfurylamine
(QFA) were synthesised and characterised by elemental analyses,
molar conductance and magnetic susceptibility measurements, IR, electronic
and EPR spectral studies. The QSC complexes have the general
formula [M(QSC)Cl2]. A tetrahedral structure has been assigned for the
Mn(II), Co(II) and Ni(II) complexes and a square-planar structure for the
Cu(II) complex. The QFA complexes have the formula [M(QFA)2Cl2].
An octahedral structure has been assigned for these complexes. All of
the complexes exhibit catalytic activity towards the oxidation of 3,5-di-tert-butylcatechol (DTBC) to 3,5-di-tert-butylquinone (DTBQ) using
atmospheric oxygen. The cobalt(II) complex of the ligand QFA was
found to be the most active catalyst.

Abstract:
Coordination chemistry of schiff bases is of considerable interest due to their various magnetic, catalytic and biological applications. Here it describes the spectral characterization of schiff bases and its Mn (II), Cu (II) and Ni (II) complexes. Then synthesis and spectral characterization of Zn (II), Cd (II) and Co (II) complexes of schiff base derived from 3-Formylsalicilic Acid and 1,3-diaminopropane. Then it discusses the synthesis and spectral studies of Copper (II) complexes of 2-Hydroxyacetophenone N-phenyl semicarbazone. Finally it discusses the synthesis and spectral characterization of Co (III) complexes of salicylaldehyde N-phenyl semicarbazone. The preparation and characterization of Cobalt (III) complexes of salicylaldehyde, N-phenylthiosemicarbazone containing hetrocyclic bases phenalthroline and bipyridine. Thiocyanate, azide and perchlorate ions act as coligands. Elemental analysis suggests +3 state for Cobalt. HNMR, IR and UV-visible spectra characterize the complexes.
