Tentative structures have been proposed for the products based on elemental analysis, electrical conductance and spectral (electronic, IR and 1H-NMR) data. Proton NMR spectra indicate that on the NMR time scale there is rapid rotation of the cyclopentadienyl ring around the metal-ring axis at 25oC. Studies were conducted to assess the growth inhibiting potential of the complexes synthesized and the ligands against various bacterial strains. Keywords: Titanium(IV), zirconium(IV), imine-oxime, IR, PMR, antibacterial activity Introduction Derivatives of the bent metallocene complexes of Group IV metals have attracted increasing attention because they are applied in a variety of asymmetric catalytic and stoichiometric reactions [1- 6]. Perhaps the most important application of these complexes is in the isotactic polymerization of propylene. The introduction of modifications to the classical ligands is a very effective way of varying the physical and chemical properties of the parent metallocenes over a very wide range in order to inco
