Abstract

Thirty-seven metal chelate complexes of salts of 8-quinolinols with aromatic hydroxycarboxylic acids were screened by the disc-plate method against strains of five bacteria and five fungi. The copper (II) chelates of 8-quinolinolium salicylate and 8-quinolinolium-3′-hydroxy-2′-naphthoate showed outstanding antifungal and good antibacterial properties and appear to be potentially more economical than copper (II) 8-quinolinolate.
