dc.description.abstractSome transition metal complexes of mixed artemether, ascorbic acid and lumefantrine have been synthesized and characterized using UV/Vis, FTIR, Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) and Gas chromatography-Mass Spectroscopy (GC-MS). The results revealed that the artemether and ascorbic acid are chelating ligands and coordinates through the oxygen of the carbonyl groups while lumefantrine coordinates through the hydroxyl group in a monodentate fashion. The metal complexes were investigated for biological activity using five bacterial species - Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Bacillus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. It was observed that the synthesized complexes were more effective towards the five bacteria species than the free drugs.en_US
