Abstract

A novel terpolymer ligand (PUF) was synthesized through the condensation polymerization of p -phenylenediamine and urea with formaldehyde in the presence of basic medium. Terpolymer-metal complexes were prepared using the PUF ligand with some transition metal ions such as Cu(II) and Ni(II) in 2:1 ligand:metal molar ratio. The terpolymer ligand and its metal complexes were intended to spectral characterizations viz. FTIR, UV-vis, 1H NMR and 13C NMR to establish the structure. The molecular weight of the terpolymer ligand was determined by gel permeation chromatography. The empirical formula of the repeating unit for both the terpolymer ligand and its metal complexes were justified by elemental analysis. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to establish the surface morphology of the terpolymer ligand. In addition, the terpolymer ligand and its metal complexes were screened against the growth of few microbes and their inhibitions were measured by disc diffusion technique.
