Abstract

Abstract The dinuclear cobalt (II) complexes with ciprofloxacin and bidentate ligands were synthesized and characterized using infrared spectra, electronic spectra, magnetic measurements, elemental analyses, thermal investigation, and mass spectroscopy. Here in we tried to increase an antibacterial activity of ciprofloxacin drug due to formation of mixed- ligand complexes. Synthesized compounds were found to be more potent compared to ...
