Synthesis, antioxidant and antibacterial activities of some schiff bases containing hydroxyl and methoxy groups

A series of Schiff bases were synthesized from different aromatic amines and aromatic aldehydes containing hydroxyl and methoxy groups. These compounds were characterized by IR and 1H NMR. All the compounds were screened for in vitro antioxidant activity using DPPH method and total reducing power ac...

QD Chemistry A series of Schiff bases were synthesized from different aromatic amines and aromatic aldehydes containing hydroxyl and methoxy groups.
