Abstract
A new 4-[1-(4-methylphenylsulfonyl)-1H-indol-3-yl]but-3-en-2-one thiosemicarbazone (HL) was synthesized derived from 4-[1-(4-methylphenylsulfonyl)-1H-indol-3-yl]but-3-en-2-one. Four transition metal(II) complexes of HL have been prepared. Elemental analysis, molar conductivity, IR, UV, 1H NMR spectra, and TG-DTA have been used to characterize these complexes. The complexes have the general formula ML2, where M = Zn, Cu, Co, and Ni. The ligand and its complexes have been studied for their possible biological activity including anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antitumour activity in vitro.
