Schiff bases are considered as privileged ligand in coordination chemistry as they easily form stable complexes with most transition metal complexes. Transition metal complexes of Schiff bases are one of the most adaptable and thoroughly studied systems. In this paper, a novel Schiff-base ligand derived from Curcumin & Methyl-3-amino-2-thiophene carboxylate (MATC) and its transition metal complexes [Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II)] were synthesized. All the synthesized compounds have been characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV, magnetic measurement, molar conductance, NMR, ESR and TG/DTA analysis. On the basis of elemental and spectral studies, four coordinated geometry has been assigned for metal complexes.
