The compounds 1-5 were characterized by FT-IR, thermal analyses, UV, magnetic susceptibility, and molar conductivity methods. All complexes ( 1-5 ) show an octahedral conformation. The structures 1 , 4 , and 5 have 3:2 ionic form for 1 and a 1:1 ionic form for 4 and 5 , whereas the structures 2 and 3 have non-ionic forms. Also, Co(OH) 2 , H 3 ssa, and L1-L5 and 1-5 were screened for their antibacterial activity against Listeria monocytogenes , Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa , Staphylococcus aureus , Escherichia coli , Enterococcus faecalis , and antifungal activity against Candida albicans microorganisms. The results emerge to be in accordance with those of the antifungal drug Ketoconazole and Fluconazole, and the antibacterial agents Chloramphenicol, Cefepime, Vancomycin, and Levofloxacin. The best activity MIC values were shown Co(OH) 2 and L5 for P. aeruginosa , Co(OH) 2 , 3 , and 5 for E. faecalis , L3 for B. subtilis , L5 for E. coli , L1, L2, L5, and 3 for L. monocytogenes , and L5, 2 , and 5 for C. albicans . Compounds L2, L3, and 3 for B. subtilis bacteria, and compounds L5, 2 , and 5 for C. albicans yeast had better activity than the control compounds.
