Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
A novel Schiff base was synthesized by the condensation of imidazole-2-carboxaldehyde with l-histidine in an equimolar ratio. The prepared Schiff base was characterized by elemental analysis and spectral characterization techniques. It was then complexed with a series of 3-d metal(II) ions like manganese, iron, cobalt, nickel, copper and zinc. The coordination properties, nature of bonding and stability of the complexes were deduced from elemental analysis, IR, UV–vis, H NMR, mass, electronic spectra, magnetic, conductivity and thermogravimetric analysis. IR studies support the tridentate behaviour of Schiff base as well as its coordination to the central metal ion through an azomethine nitrogen, deprotonated carboxylic oxygen and imidazole ring nitrogen atoms of histidine. The electronic spectra and magnetic moment data demonstrate that the complexes have an octahedral geometry, except zinc complex, which has a tetrahedral geometry. In vitro antimicrobial activity of the synthesized compounds has been shown to exhibit excellent antibacterial and antifungal activities. The antibacterial property of the prepared Schiff base was further confirmed by conducting a docking study of target proteins involved in the antibacterial mechanism. Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.
