Abstract

Present work emphasis the biological importance of Ruthenium(III) and Copper(II) metal complexes, we had approaches the synthesis of ligands (L1 & L2) and their respective metal complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, conductivity measurements, magnetic susceptibility, electronic spectral studies, infrared spectroscopy studies, 1H NMR spectral studies, Mass spectral studies and thermogravimetric studies. This study highlights the biological activities such as antioxidant, antibacterial and antifungal activity of metal complexes and also compared with standard compounds.

Keywords: Ruthenium(III) and Copper(II) metal complexes, DPPH activity, antibacterial activity, antifungal activity.
