All the complexes were characterized using spectral techniques like FT-IR, ESI-MS, TGA-DTA, UV-Vis, ESR and VSM. The structure of complex 2 was confirmed by single-crystal X-ray structure determination. Complex 2 crystallized in a monoclinic crystal system and P 21/n space group with a distorted square pyramidal geometry. In vitro anti-TB and cytotoxicity studies were also carried out using MABA (Microplate Alamar Blue Assay)and MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide)assay respectively. All the copper (II)complexes have shown excellent anti-TB properties in the nano-molar concentration range and exhibit low cytotoxicity UR - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1M3l0o1eV5cvEWfAmxFfdVIEVMKPw3x7d/view?usp=drivesdk ER -
