    Abstract: This study was aimed at synthesizing, characterizing and evaluating the antifungal activity of the Schiff base and Mn (II) complex. The reaction of the mixture of ethanol solution of acetylacetone and leucine yielded a Schiff base. The interaction between the Schiff base in hot aqueous methanol mixture and manganese (II) chloride in ethanol gave th... Show More
