Complexes of Y (III), La (III), Pr (III) , Nd (III) , Sm (III) , and Dy (III) with 2-( 2'- hydroxy-5'-chloroacetophenyl )-4,6-dimethylbenzothiazolyl hydrazone (HCAPDMBTH) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analytical, molar conductance, thermogravemetric, UV-visible and IR spectral data. Spectral data reveal that the ligand coordinates with the metal ion in a bidentate fashion through azomethine nitrogen and phenolic oxygen giving the complexes of the type [ MLCl (H2 0)3] Cl2 . The ligand and its complexes exhibit antibacterial activity
