Abstract
Condensation of 5-(hydroxymethyl)furan-2-carboxaldehyde with 4-toluidine yielded a Schiff base
(5-((p-tolylimino)methyl)furan-2-ol). A series of seven novel hexa-coordinated organyltellurium(IV)
complexes of type TeCl4·HMeFPT, RTeCl3·HMeFPT and R2TeCl2·HMeFPT (where R belongs to
4-methoxyphenyl, 4-hydroxyphenyl and 3-methyl-4-hydroxyphenyl; L belongs to HMeFPT i.e. Schiff
base have been prepared and characterized by molar conductance, IR, UV, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, mass
spectroscopy and elemental analysis. Thus according to spectroscopic studies, Schiff base ligand
functions as a NO donor bidentate ligand across all organyltellurium(IV) complexes via the azomethine
nitrogen atom and the oxygen atom of the furan ring. The above mentioned spectroscopic analysis
indicated that all the organyltellurium(IV) complexes have distorted octahedral geometry. Schiff base
and all the organyltellurium(IV) complexes had their geometry optimized and theoretical quantum
mechanical characteristics computed. The octahedral geometry for complexes is also suggested by
this computing analysis. The antimicrobial property of the Schiff base ligand and its
organyltellurium(IV) complexes was evaluated in vitro against different bacterial strains viz. A. clavatus,
C. albicans, A. niger, S. pyogenes, S. aureus, E. coli and P. aerugenosa. Antimicrobial property of
heterocyclic bidentate Schiff base and its organyltellurium(IV) complexes was found to be significantly
greater than that of some standard antibiotics.
