Abstract
- Twelve copper(II) Schiff base complexes derived from lipophilic amines have been prepared using either salicylaldehyde or ortho-vanillin via a microwave-assisted reaction. All complexes have been obtained elementally pure and an X-ray diffraction of an isopentyl derivative has confirmed the structure of these compounds. All complexes showed a promising degree of anti-mycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis, where activity seemed to increase with an increase in the length of the aliphatic chain.
