%X The new metal complexes of Cu(II), Ni(II) and Co(II) with the new ligand derived from isatine and 1,2-diaminocyclohexane were synthesized and biologically screened. The synthesized complexes and ligand were characterized by spectroscopic FT-IR, UV-VIS, 1H-NMR and elemental analyses. The ligand and complexes were screened for their antibacterial activities against three different strains, namely<em> E. coli, P. aeruginosa</em> and<em> S. aureus.</em> In particular, the Co(II) and Cu-complexes exhibited excellent antibacterial activities compared to the reference compound.
