Abstract: A new series of transition metal complexes of Cu(II), Mn(II), Cd(II), Zn(II), Ni(II) and Co(II) derived from Isatin - anthranilic acid Schiff base and mixed ligand metal complexes have been synthesized and characterized in the light of spectral studies like IR, UV, and 1H- NMR. The synthesized metal complexes have been screened for their invitro antibacterial activities by zone of inhibition method against Proteus vulgaris, Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Micrococcus and Salmonella typhi “H”. The antibacterial screening showed that cadmium complex possesses higher activity towards Staphylococcus aureus.
 

Key words: Isatin, Anthranilic acid and antibacterial activity.
