Schiff bases are the compounds with the azomethine group (-R=CN-) containing carbon, nitrogen and an aryl or alkyl group in their structures and can be synthesized via condensation of a primary amine with an active carbonyl compound .In recent years, reactions catalysed by chiral salen-based transition metal complexes have become a matter of interest . Schiff base ligands have proven to be very effective in constructing supramolecular architectures such as coordination polymers, double helixes, and triple helicates. Schiff bases can accommodate different metal centres involving various coordination modes, allowing for the successful synthesis of homo- and heterometallic complexes with varied stereochemistry. This feature is employed for modelling active sites in biological systems. Schiff bases and their complexes are versatile compounds synthesized from the condensation of an amino compound with carbonyl compounds and widely used for industrial purposes and also exhibit a broad range of biological activities including antifungal, antibacterial, antimalarial, antiproliferative, antiinflammatory, antiviral, and antipyretic properties. Many Schiff base complexes show excellent catalytic activity in various reactions and in the presence of moisture.. The prepared Complex was characterized using FT_IR , TGA , ICP , SEM and Elemental analysis.
