摘要：

2-Amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole undergoes a condensation reaction with furane-, thiophene- and pyrrole-2-carboxaldehyde to form tridentate NNO, NNS and NNN donor Schiff bases. These Schiff bases were further used to obtain complexes of the type [M(L)2]X, where M = Co(II), Cu(II), Ni(II) or Zn(II), L = L1, L2 or L3 and X = Cl2. The new compounds described here have been characterized by their physical, spectral and analytical data, and have been screened for antibacterial activity against several bacterial strains such as Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The antibacterial potency of the Schiff bases increased upon chelation/complexation in comparison to the uncomplexed Schiff bases against the tested bacterial species thus, opening new approaches to find new ways in the fight against antibiotic-resistant strains.
