In this paper we synthesized a natural polymer based metal complex. The complex were characterize using different spectrochemical techniques like FT-IR, Mass spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction etc. The complex was found to be active towards different fungal, MIC80 was determined in vitro in liquid medium by the macro broth dilution method as per the guidelines of CLSI reference document M27-A3 for fungi, document NCCLS/CLSI M11-A6 for gram negative bacteria, and document CLSI M100-S15 for gram positive bacteria.  The order of sensitivity to these compounds was C. albicans > E. coli > S. aureus.

Ni (II) and Mn (II) metal complexes of Schiff base derived from ethylenediamine, succinic acid and formaldehyde. The newly synthesized Schiff base complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, Melting point, conductivity, IR and UV-VIS spectral methods. The complexes have been tested using for the catalytic oxidation of benzylacohol using ecofriendly molecular oxygen as catalyst. The results show that Nickel complex shows highest yield oxidation product as compared to Manganese at 35°C temperature, 90mg catalyst amount and 25 min. time.
