Synthesis, Characterization and Biological Studies of ۲-(۴-Nitrophenylaminocarbonyl)Benzoic Acid and Its Complexes with Cr(III), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II)

Cr(III), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) salts of ۲-(۴-nitrophenylaminocarbonyl)benzoic acid were characterized by physical, analytical and spectroscopic studies and checked for their  in-vitro antimicrobial activity against three bacterial strains, Mycobacterium smegmatis (Gram +ve), Escherichia coli (Gram -ve), Pseudomonas aeuroginosa (Gram -ve) and three fungal strains, Nigrospora oryzae, Aspergillus niger and Candida albicans. The antimicrobial activities of the metal complexes were found to be greater than those of ۲-(۴-nitrophenylaminocarbonyl)benzoic acid alone.
