Stability constants of complexes of aluminium(III) and thorium(IV) with methionine and cysteine have been determined by modified paper electrophoretic technique at $\mu$ = 0.1 M. The proportion of ionic species of methionine and cysteine were varied by changing pH of background electrolyte. The stability constants of the complexes metal-methionine-cysteine have been found to be 4.31 ± 0.12 and 5.40 ± 0.19 (log K values) for $Al^{3+}\;and\;Th^{4+} $ complexes, at temperature 35 ${^{\circ}C}$, respectively.

Mononuclear Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), Mn(II), Zn(II), Fe(III), Ru(III), and UO2(II) complexes of 2-hydroxy-4-(p-tolyldiazenyl)benzylidene)-2-(p-tolylamino)acetohydrazide (H2L) were prepared by direct method. The ligand and its complexes were isolated in solid state and characterized by analytical techniques such as elemental and thermal analyses, molar conductance, magnetic susceptibility measurements and spectroscopic techniques such as UV-Visible, IR, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR. The spectral data indicated that the ligand acted as neutral/monobasic bidentate or monobasic/dibasic tridentate ligand bonded to the metal ions through the oxygen atom of ketonic or enolic carbonyl group, azomethine nitrogen atom and deprotonated/protonated phenolic oxygen atom forming either tetragonally distorted octahedral or octahedral. Antimicrobial activities of the ligand and its complexes were evaluated against Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis and Aspergillus niger by well diffusion method. The results of antifungal activity showed that the Fe(III) complex (10) exhibited higher antifungal against Aspergillus niger than the other complexes. However, the results of antibacterial activity revealed that Cu(II) complex (4) is the most active against Escherichia coli while the Cu(II) complex (5) and Fe(III) complex (10) exhibited higher antibacterial effect on Bacillus subtilis than the other complexes.

A number of complexes of transition metal ions with some coumarin derivatives have been prepared and their structures were elucidated with the help of conductometric, photometric and infrared studies. The stability constants of various complexes were determined, in aqueous medium, at different temperatures potentiometrically. The thermodynamic characteristics, ΔG, ΔH and ΔS, were calculated. The electrical behaviour of prepared compounds was followed.

Zr, Cu, Zn and Fe-pyrithione complexes were prepared in aqueous medium and their antimicrobial activities were evaluated by MIC and cylinder plate methods against Bacillus subtilis, Sarcina lutea, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Trichophyton mentagrophytes, Candida albicans, Asperillus niger and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Zr-pyrithione possessed most potent activities among the metal complexes against a wide range of microorganisms, especially Gram positive, B. subtilis, S. aureus and fungus, C. albicans. And all of the metal complexes synthesized were more active than pyrithione base. Fe(III)-pyrithione complex has an equal potency to Zn-pyrithione in general but it showed potent activity against B. subtilis microorganism than Zn-pyrithione.

We investigated the effect of electron injection layer on the performance of organic light emitting devices (OLEDs). As an electron injection layer, the quinolate metal complexes were used. We optimized the device efficiency by varying the thickness of the quinolate metal complexes layer. The device with 1 nm of the quinolate metal complexes layer showed significant enhancement of the device performance and device lifetime. We also compared the effect of 8-hydroxyquinolinolatolithium (Liq) with that of bis(8-quinolinolato)-zinc ($Znq_{2}$) and 8-hydroxyquinolinolatosodium (Naq) as an electron injection layer. As a result, Liq is considered as a better materials for the electron injection layer than $Znq_{2}$ and Naq.

The combustion characteristics of cellulose Insulation treated with several metal complexes such as Aluminium hydroxide, Cupric sulfate pentahydrate, Magnesium sulfate heptahydrate, Manganese chloride tetrahydrate and Tnisodium phosphate dodecahydrate are studied to evaluate the effectiveness as a potential flame retardant for cellulosic materials. In this study, we found that LOI values of cellulosic materials treated with the metal complexes are generally increased with the increase of their content. At high concentration, CS(24% ) and SP(24% ) show high LOI values, suggesting resistance to flame spread, The materials examined in this study were found to be relatively more resistance to smouldering and flaming combustion in comparision with untreated cellulosic material. The flammability behavior of the materials exhibits combustion process as follows : LOI$\rightarrow$smouldering region$\rightarrow$smouldering-flaming spread region$\rightarrow$flame spread region.

The elution behaviors of a series of metal complexes, such as $Co(gly)_{3}$, $[Ni(en)_{3}]^{2+}$, $[Ni(phen)_3]^{2+}$, $[Fe(phen)_3]^{2+}$, $[Co(phen)_3]^3+$, $[Co(tn)_3]^3+$, $[Co(en)_3]^3+$ and $[Co(NH_3)_6]^3+$ (where gly; glycine, phen; phenanthroline, tn; trimethylenediamine, en; ethylenediamine), were studied in aqueous solution by measuring the retention volumes (v values) on SP-Sephadex C-25, cation exchange resin. It was found that the elution behaviors of metal complexes were apparently affected by salt concentrations, kinds of cations in eluent and kinds of anions in eluent, and according to the degrees of their effects coulombic forces, ion exchange capacities, the 'solvent effect' of resin backbone, hydrophobicity and hydrophilicity were applied to explain the elution mechanism.

VO(II), ZrO(II), Hf(IV), $UO_2$(II), Sn(II), V(V)$O_3$, Ru(III), Cd(II), Ho(III) and Yb(III) complexes of N'-(2-hydroxybenzyl)-2-(phenylamino)acetohydrazide ($H_2L^1$, 1) and N'-((3-hydroxy-naphthalen-2-yl)methylene)-2-(phenylamino)-acetohydrazide ($H_2L^2$, 13) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, $^1H$ NMR, IR, UV-Vis, conductance, thermal analyses (DTA and TG). The spectral data showed that the ligands behave as neutral bidentate, monobasic bidentate, monobasic tridentate or bibasic tridentate ligand bonded to the metal ions through the azomethine nitrogen atoms, phenolic hydroxyl group in protonated or deprotonated form and enolic or ketonic carbonyl group. The ligands and their metal complexes exhibit higher antifungal and antibacterial inhibitory effects than parent ligands and the solution of metal ions. Most of metal complexes exhibit higher antifungal activity than standard antifungal drug (amphotricene B). It is also clear that the ligands and their metal complexes have higher antifungal activity than antibacterial activity.

The stability constants$(K_f)$ of the complexes of some transition and post-transition metal ions (Co(Ⅱ), Ni(Ⅱ), Cu(Ⅱ), Zn(Ⅱ), Cd(Ⅱ), Pb(Ⅱ), Hg(Ⅱ)) with $N_2O_3$-donor macrocyclic ligand, 1,15-diaza-3,4 : 12,13-dibenzo-5,8,11-trioxacyclooctadecane ($NtnOdienH_4$), have been determined by potentiometry in aqueous solution at $25^{\circ}C$. Log $K_f$ values of the complexes were : Co(Ⅱ): 3.83, Ni(Ⅱ) : 4.56, Cu(Ⅱ) : 7.74, Zn(Ⅱ) : 4.98, Cd(Ⅱ) : 3.91, Pb(Ⅱ) : 6.65, and Hg(Ⅱ) : 14.87. The order of stabilities of transition metal complexes was the same as the natural order of stability proposed by Williams-Irving. In post-transition metal complexes, the order of stabilities was Cd(Ⅱ) < Pb(Ⅱ) < Hg(Ⅱ), and the covalent character in metal ion-donor atoms bonds appeared a dominant factor in the stability. In methanol solution, each metal ion forms 1 : 1 complex, while Ni(Ⅱ) ion forms both 1 : 1 and 1 : 2 complexes. It was confirmed by $^1H-$ and $^{13}C-$NMR spectral study that the nitrogen atoms in the ligand were major contributors for the complexation of post-transition metal ions with the ligand. It was shown, by elementry analysis, electrical conductivity and magnetic susceptibility measurements, and spectral analysis, that solid Cu(Ⅱ)-and Zn(Ⅱ)-complexes have a distorted octahedral and a tetrahedral structure, respectively.
