Description :
In this study, the three coordination polymers of Cu(III), Ni(II) and Zn(II) salts have been synthesized using phthalic acid-thiosemicarbazide-formaldehyde copolymer (PTF-I) and their structures were characterized by elemental analysis, ultravioletâ€visible (UVâ€VIS), FTIR, H1 NMR spectroscopy. The antibacterial activities of the terpolymer metal complexes against four bacterium Escherichia coli (ETEC), Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus pumulis, Vibrio cholerae, were studied. The structures of PTF-Cu(III), PTFâ€Ni(II) and PTFâ€Zn(II) complexes in the coordination polymer were found as octahedral geometry. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) results revealed that among the complexes PTFâ€Zn(III) complex has the highest thermally stable.
