Schiff base ligands are used in variety range of applications such as anti-corrosion [1], anticancerous [2], anti-HIV [3], anti-bacterial and anti-fungal materials [4] and DNA cleavage.[5] Furthermore, their industrial potential make them good choice for catalysis [6], drug design [7], and chemical sensor [8]. They were usually formed by the condensation reaction between an aldehyde and an amine to eliminate water and formation the imine group which plays a key role in Schiff base ligands. The chelating centers (nitrogen, oxygen and etc.) to metal ion have the potential of biological activities. [9] The complexation with transition metal ions improves their stability.
