Abstract
Several Schiff bases of S-benzyldithiocarbazate (SBDTC) and Smethyldithiocarbazate
(SMDTC) have been synthesised. Complexes of NiCll) and
Cu(IT) were prepared. These compounds were characterised by elemental analyses and
various physico-chemical techniques. The Schiff bases and their metal complexes were
tested to evaluate their cytotoxic, antimicrobial and antioxidant activities. Cytotoxic
screening was carried out against the T-Iymphoblastic leukemic cells (CEM-SS) and
colon cancer cells (HT-29). Antimicrobial screening was carried out against four
bacteria and four fungi. The nickelCTI) complexes are four- and five- coordinated while
the copper(TI) complex is five-coordinated.
