The derived schiff base (2E) N-(naphthalen-2yl)-3 phenyl prop-2en-1 imine synthesized by condensing (2E)-3-Phenylprop-2-enal and 2-Naphthylamine. The above synthesized Schiff base forms stable coordinated metal complexes, using salts of Rhodium, Platinum and Gold. The synthesized Schiff base and metal complexes were characterized by U.V, FTIR, 1H-NMR and the percentage of elemental detections were determined by CHNS analyser. The thermal stability of metal complexes were studied using TGA indicating the synthesized metal complexes upto 350-650C. The characterization study confirms the formation of stable octahedral Rh (III) complex whereas Pt (II) and Au (III) complexes show square planar structures. Further the comparative antimicrobial activities of the Schiff base and corresponding metal complexes have been studied.
