The new mononuclear complexes of Tilll, Crlll, Mnlll and Felll with tridentate hydrazone ligands viz. 2- hydroxy-5-chloroacetophenonebenzoylhydrazone (H2L1) and 2-hydroxy-3,5-dichloroacetophenone-4-nitrobenzoylhydrazone (H2L2) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FTIR, reflectance spectra, magnetic susceptibility and thermogravimetric analyses (TG). From the analytical data, the stoichiometry of the complexes has been found to be 1 : 1 (metal : organic ligand). The physicochemical data suggested octahedral geometry for all the complexes. Electrical conductivity measurements of the complexes have been made over a wide range of temperatures and it was found that complexes showed semiconducting behavior. Various kinetic parameters have been evaluated from thermal decomposition data by both Horowitz-Metzger and Coats-Redfern methods and comparable values are obtained. The ligands and their metal complexes were screened for their antibacterial activity against E. coli, S. abony, P. aeruginosa, S. aureus and B. subtilis and fungicidal activity against A. niger and C. albicans.
