1.INTRODUCTION

The chemistry of Schiff base is in an important zone of research with increasing interest due to their

simple formation, versatility, the diverse range of medicinal application of their metal complexes

e.g. anticancer, as anti-bactericidal agents, antiviral agent and other biological properties. Also, they

find uses in polymers and dyes, agriculture [4-6]. A Schiff base is a nitrogen analogue of an aldehyde

or ketone in which the C=O group is replaced by C=N-R group. It is normally formation by

condensation of an aldehyde or ketone with primary amine [7-8]. The inner transition metals and

transition metals are known to form Schiff base complexes [9]. The lanthanide elements recently

found to possess a wide range of coordination numbers and geometries [10]. Rare earth’s

coordination compounds are most crucial in cancer diagnosis and cure. It may be due to the

paramagnetic properties of lanthanides and their complexes. These compounds are generally used

in medicine as a difference media for MRI [11-12].

2. MATERIALS AND METHODS

All the chemicals used for whole work were of analyticalgrade. Salicylaldehyde, anthranilic

acid, ethanol were used for preparation of Schiff base. 0.3M perchloric acid, 0.1M perchlorate

were prepared from 70% perchloric acid and M(III) ions in aqueous solution.

Synthesis of Schiff base ligand

N-salicylaldehydeanthranilic acid was synthesized by adding equal volumes of 0.04 mol ethanolic

solution of salicylaldehyde to a solution of 0.04 mol ethanolic solution of anthranilic acid and the

mixture was stirred for 3hrs. The solution was concentered and orange coloured Schiff base of N-

salicylaldehyde-anthranilic acid was generated. The precipitated Schiff base was filtered and

recrystallized twice from alcohol, M.P 205 0C.

Table 01: physical data of ligand

Figure 01: Ligand structure(NSAA)

Preparation of Complexes

The formation of complexes was carried out by the mixing of 60 ml of 0.1M metal perchlorate

solution and 60 ml 0.1M ligand solution in 50% ethanol-water. The mole ratio of ligand and metal

was (1:1). The reaction mixture was refluxed for 2 to 3 hrs at 90-100 0C. Then after some time the

mixture was cooled and complex slowly precipitated. The pH of the above solution was raised up

to 5.5 using 0.1M NaOH solution and the precipitated complex was filtered and washed with hot

alcohol and dried at room temperature.

3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

Analysis and Physical Measurement

M.P. and TLC (Solvent toluene: methanol 7:3) were taken in usual method. TLC indicated single

spot so confirming the complex formation. The UV visible spectrum measured by Shimadzu UV-

1800 UV-VIS spectrophotometer (double beam) in the range of 200 nm to 800 nm using DMF

solvent. Elemental analysis was performed with a ThermoFinnigan FLASH EA 1112 Series CHN

analyzer. The metal percentage was determined with EDTA back titration method. Magnetic

susceptibility was determined by Gouy’s method with utilizing Hg[Co(NCS)4] as a calibrant on

4000-400 cm-1using KBr pellets on a Shimadzu IR Affinity 1 S spectrophotometer. T.G.A/D.S.C

measured by Perkin-Elmer Diamond Thermogravimetric/Differential Thermal Analyzer.

The molar conductance value suggested non-electrolytic nature. Although, a high degree of

dissociation of complexes was inferred from molar conductance values.

Infrared Spectroscopy

The IR spectra of the Schiff base and Ln(III) complexes are given in table 03. The IR spectra of

Ln(III) complexes show the ligand characteristic bands with the proper shifts due to complex

formation and spectra of all complexes are discussed as below. The IR band at 1618 cm-1 of the free

Schiff base ligand is present due to the azomethine group in complexation This band is shifted to

lower wave number in complexes. In NSAA the signal at 3470 cm-1 was from the stretching

vibration of phenolic –OH [13]group but in metal complexes the phenolic –OH frequency vanishes,

it confirmed that the oxygen atom of phenolic group is making complexes with metals. In NSAA

carboxylic group showed 2954 cm-1,1686 cm-1,1292 cm-1bands for respectively –OH group, C=O

group and C-O group [14-15]. In complexation, all of these signals are shifted to lower wave number.

The stretching vibration bands of 3475 to 3579 cm-1 assigned for coordinated H2O in La-NSAA to

Pr-NSAA respectively. Some new frequencies emerge in metal complexes in the favour of M-N and

Magnetic Moments

Gouy’s method used for measurement of the magnetic moments. At room temperature magnetic

moment for solid complexes of La3+, Ce3+, Pr3+, respectively 0 BM, 2.39 BM, 3.46 BM. This

suggests that 0,1 and 2 unpair electron for La(III), Ce(III) and Pr(III) ions respectively, considering

spin-orbit coupling [18-20].

Electronic Spectral Study

Lanthanum (III) hаѕnо significant absorption in thе visible region, duеtоthе absence оf 4f orbital

electrons. The absorption spectra of lanthanide complexes show presence due to laporte forbidden

f-f transitions. 4f orbitals of lanthanide metals are deep-seated therefore not exposed to surrounding

ligands. Ce(III) exhibits broad bands due to L→Mcharge transfer transitions [21-22].

Thermal analysis

It is observed that at 150 0Ctemperature in La-NSAA complex 50.23 gm weight loss per mole

occurred, which implies that two H2O molecules of crystallization with La-NSAA is present and at

250 0C temperature 35.56 gm weight loss per mole occurred which implies that two H2O molecules

coordinate with La-NSAA. Thermogravimetric analysis for 1 mole of Ce-NSAA at 150 0C

temperature 20.35 gm weight loss per mole occurred which implies there is one water molecule of

crystallization and at 250 0C temperature 79.40 gm weight loss per mole occurred which implies

that four H2O molecules coordinate with Ce-NSAA. For Pr-NSAA at 150 0C 41.9 gm weight loss

per mole occurred which implies that two H2O molecules of crystallization and at 250 0C

temperature 63.42 gm weight loss per mole occurred which implies that three H2O molecules

coordinate with Pr-NSAA. Nikolaev et al thought-about water eliminated below 150°C as lattice

water and higher than 150°C as coordinated water to the metal ions [23-24].

The catalytic study shows that metal complexes of La, Ce and Pr were found to increase the rate of

reaction between potassium bromate and potassium iodide while the complex of La exhibited the

good enhancement in the reaction rate between the reaction of potassium persulphate and potassium

iodide. In the reaction between hydrogen peroxide and potassium iodide, Ce-complex was found to

increase the reaction rate while other two complexes were found to reduce the rate of reaction.

Overall the La-complex was able to act as a good catalyst and impressively catalyzed the redox

reaction of potassium bromate and potassium persulphate with potassium iodide respectively and

between the reaction of hydrogen peroxide and potassium iodide, Ce-complex was found as a good

catalyst compared with Pr and La complexes.

The ligand is moderately active and the complexes are more active as antibacterial[31]. Ligand-

NSAA is more active against Gram’s positive bacteria as compared to Gram’s negative bacteria.

Mostly all the lanthanide complexes were found to exhibit antibacterial activities against four

bacterial species (two Gram’s positive and two Gram’s negative) with concentration ranging from

100 to 400 µg/mL as shown in the table 07. Gram’s positive Bacillus subtilis was the most affected

bacterial species followed by Staphylococcus aureus. The activity increases with increase in

concentration of complexes. The complex La- NSAA was the most effective inhibitor against all

the four bacteria followed by Ce-NSAA, Pr-NSAA.Ligand–NSAA at all its concentrations shows

inhibitory effect on Gram’s positive bacteria: Bacillus Subtilis and Staphylococcus Aureus, but at

100 and 200 µg/mL concentrations, it could not exhibit any inhibitory effect onGram’s negative

bacteria: Escherichia Coli and Pseudomonas Aeruginosa. At 400 µg/mL concentration, all the

complexes were less active compared to Ciprofloxacin. Ce- NSAA is the only one complex which

did not demonstrate any inhibitory effect againstEscherichia Coli at 100 and 200 µg/mL

concentrations. Whereas at 100 µg/ml concentration, Ce- NSAA and Pr- NSAA both did not show

any inhibitory activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa.In general, all the complexes were able

to inhibit Gram’s positive bacteria and not Gram’s negative one.

4. CONCLUSION

Inner Transition metal complexes of La(III), Ce(III) and Pr(III) with Schiff base derived from

anthranilic acid and salicylaldehyde have been synthesized from their corresponding

metal perchlorate and characterized. The structure of the Schiff base and metal

complexes are determined with the assistance of elemental analysis, IR, Uv-visible spectra,

mass spectrometry, molar conductance, magnetic moment and thermal analysis. The catalytic

effect of complexes on Dies-Alder reaction has been also studied. Kinetic study on three well-

known redox reactions, La-NSAA was found to increase the rate of reaction of potassium

bromate and potassium iodide. The activation energy for thermal decomposition was calculated

from TGA data by Broido method. The higher activation energy indicating complexes have

good thermal stability and ability to pass on energy consequently good catalysis ability. Schiff

base and every complex were screened for antibacterial activity against Bacillus subtilis,

Staphylococcus Aureus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa Victimization

ciprofloxacin antibiotic drug as standards. It had been shown that La, Ce and Pr complexes

show increased antimicrobial activity than Schiff base.
