INTRODUCTION
Schiff bases have been used as chelating ligands in the field of co-ordination chemistry and their metal complexes are of great interest for many years It is well known that N and S atoms play a key role in the co-ordination of metals at the active sites of numerous metallobiomolecules 1 .Schiff base metal complexes have been widely studied because they have industrial, antiungal, antibacterial, metal complexes with wide choice of ligands and coordination environments, has prompted us to undertake research in this area 7 .The survey of chemical literature has revealed that Schiff bases possess strong ability to form complexes 8 .The Schiff bases have been investigated because of easy synthesis & remarkable versatility towards coordinating ability with transition metals [9][10][11][12][13] .The Schiff base compounds have received much attention owing to their significant biological activities and medicinal properties such as anti oxidative 14 , anti tumor 15 , antiviral 16 , antineoplastic 17 and antimicrobial activities 18 .
The complexes of different Schiff bases (5-methyl 2-hydroxy acetophenone morpholine-N-thiohydrozone,5-chloro2hydroxy acetophenonemorpholine-N-thiohydrazone and 5-methyl 2-hydroxy acetophenone antipyrine) with Mn (III) and Mn (II) have been synthesized in the lab.The structures of these complexes have been proposed on the basis of elemental analyses, electronic and IR spectral data and magnetic properties.

EXPERIMENTAL
The carbonyl compounds and the compounds of amino group used for the preparation Infrared spectra and elemental analyses were carried out at CDRI (Lucknow).The magnetic susceptibility was measured by GOUY method.
CuSo4 .5H2Owas used as calibrant.U.V-visible spectra were recorded with the help of Beckmans-DU at Chemistry Deptt.Bareilly College Bareilly.The conductivity measurement was carried out at room temperature and 10-3M dilution using conductivity bridge model 910.The thermo gravimetric analysis was carried out at G.N.D. University Amritsar.Anti bacterial and anti fungal activities were carried out at IVRI Bareilly.

Preparation of ligands
The Schiff bases were prepared by the condensation of Carbonyl compounds and compounds containing amino group.1.41 gm of Morpholine N-Thiohydrazide was dissolved in Ethanol and refluxed on water bath for half an hour.Then 1.50 gm 5-methyl 2-hydroxy acetophenone was added to it and refluxed for about five hours. .1.41 gm of Morpholine N-Thiohydrazide was dissolved in Ethanol and refluxed on water bath for half an hour.Then one mole 5-chloro 2-hydroxy acetophenone was added to it and refluxed for about five hours.Similarly 2.06 gm of 4-Amino antipyrine was dissolved in methanol.Then 1.50 gm 5-methyl 2-hydroxy acetophenone was added to it and refluxed for about five hours.The crystal of ligand so obtained was purified by recrystalization.The purity of crystal was checked by TLC and melting point.The ligands were characterized by elemental analysis, electronic and I-R spectra.

Preparation of complexes
All the metal complexes were synthesized by adding respective metal salts solution drop wise to the solution of the ligand (5-methyl 2-hydroxy acetophenone morpholine -N-thiohydrozone, 5chloro 2 hydroxy acetophenone morpholine N thiohydrozone, 5 methyl 2 hydroxy acetophenone anti pyrine) prepared.The precipitate obtained was filtered and washed with suitable solvents (DMSO and DMF) and dried in vacumm desiccator over fused P 4 O 10

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
The analytical data of 5-methyl 2-hydroxy acetophenone morpholine N thiohydrozone Mn III chloride complex and 5-methyl 2-hydroxy acetophenone morpholine N thiohydrozone Mn II complexes indicated 1/1 metal-ligands stoichiometry for the complex and hence the molecular formulae comes out to be [Mn (C 14  respectively.The m.p of the metal complexes was found to be much higher than that of the ligand which indicated the formation of the adduct. The values of molar conductance in DMF and DMSO AT 10 -3 dilution and 25 0 C indicated 1:1 electrolytic nature of 5-methyl 2-hydroxy acetophenone morpholine-N-thiohydrazone Mn (III) chloride and 5-chloro2-hydroxy acetophenone morpholine N-thiohydrozone Mn (III) chloride complex.While Mn (II) complexes of respective ligands were found to be non electrolytic in nature.5-methyl 2-hydroxy acetophenone antipyrine Mn (III), chloride complex indicated 1:1 electrolytic nature and Mn (II) complex of respective ligand indicated non electrolytic nature of the complex.The values of magnetic moment Came out to be about 5.93 B.M for Mn+3 and About 4.70 for Mn+2 complexes [18][19][20] .
The IR spectra of complexes of 5-methyl 2-hydroxy acetophenone morpholine N thiohydrozone and 2-hydroxy 5-chloro acetophenone morpholine N thiohydrozone indicated di-basic tri-dentate nature of the ligand as revealed by the comparison of this spectrum with that of the ligand shows band due to phenolic OH and νc=s, which disappeared in the IR spectra of the complexes and a new band has appeared at the range of 745 to 760 cm -1 .This suggested the coordination of metal ion with the ligand through thiol-sulphur and phenolic oxygen via deprotonation.In addition to that the lowering of νc=N in the IR spectrum complexes by 15 to 20 cm -1 indicated the coordination of azomethine N, which is further substantiated by the appearance of azine chromophore at 1610 to 1615cm -1 22 .This indicated that ligand is behaving in dibasic tridentate manner coordinating through oxygen, nitrogen and sulphur atoms.
The IR spectrum of the complexes exhibited some new bands.The band at 3100 to 3480 cm -1 may be attributed to OH of coordinated water.This is further supported by the band at 810 to 880 cm -1 may be due to rocking & wagging modes of coordinated water molecules [23][24] .This inference of IR spectrum regarding the presence of coordinating water molecule is further supported by TGA.The thermogram shows the loss of three water molecules above 150 to 1700c.In the far IR region two bands were observed at the range of 400 to 480 & 500 to 590 cm -1 which may be assigned to M-N & M-O vibrations respectively 22 .
The i.r.spectra of the complexes of 5-methyl2-hydroxyacetophenoneantipyrine on comparison with that of ligands indicated coordination through cyclic C=O, phenolic oxygen and azomethine nitrogen.This indicated monobasic tridentate nature of the ligand.The band due to OH present at 3500 cm -1 which disappeared on complexation and appearance of new band at 1250 to 1270 cm -1 which indicated the bonding of ionized phenolic oxygen to the metal ion [26][27][28] .The strong band at 1590 cm -1 characterstics of the azomethine group in the free Schiff base has shifted to lower frequency of 1560-1570 cm -1 in the complexes indicating that azomethine N is one of the co-coordinating atoms in schiff base.The band observed at 1656 cm -1 characterstics of the cyclic carbonyl group of the pyrazolone ring of free Schiff base has shifted to lower frequency in the i.r range of 1610-1620 cm -1 in the complexes, indicated the co ordination of the above group with metal ion 29 .This is further supported by the formation of new bands in i.r spectrum of the complex at 460-475 cm -1 and 410-415 cm-1.Which are due to Å M-O and ÅM-N bands respectively 30 .

CONCLUSION
On the basis of above mentioned facts the complexes may be tentatively assigned the following octahedral geometry.
