Abstract
Hydrazine derived compounds and its Co(II), Cu(II) and Ni(II) chelates having the same metal ion but different anions (e.g., nitrate, sulphate, oxalate and acetate) have been synthesised and
characterised by their physical, spectral and analytical data. In order to evaluate the participating role of anions in the antibacterial activity, these synthesised ligands and its metal chelates have been
screened against bacterial species such as Staphylococcus aureous, pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumonae and Proteus vulgarus, and the results are reported.
