Abstract
The current research focused on the Schiff base ligand (S,E)-2-((2-hydroxy-3-methoxy- benzylidene)amino)-3-(1H-imidazol-4-yl)propanoic acid which synthesis by reacting L-histidine and 2-hydroxy-3-methoxy-benzaldehyde. Its complexes with Ce(III) and Fe(III) both in bulk and nano size were also synthesized. The ligand and its metal complexes were characterized by various physicochemical methods such as FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, electronic spectra, XRD, TGA, and SEM. The synthesized ligand and its metal complexes were screened against different fungi. It was found from the results that the cerium nano complex shows a potent antifungal activity for indoor uses as wallpapers.

期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
