Abstract Novel Chiral mixed ligand complexes of Zn (II) metal having general molecular formula is [ZnPClINAP) (aa).2H2O]; where PClINAP is sodium salt of p-chloroisonitrosoacetophenone and aa is a L- Amino Acids such as Alanine, Valine, Leucine, Methionine and Phenylalanine were prepared. Characterisation of complexes done by various physico-chemical techniques like elemental analysis, molar conductance determination, magnetic susceptibility measurements, electronic absorption spectral studies and also supported by IR and TG-DTA analysis with specific optical rotations. The photocatalytic activity of these metal complexes were studied as a heterogeneous catalyst for degradation of Eriochrome Black T (EBT) dye.
