چکیده
Reductions of imine compounds 2-methoxy-N-(1-(pyridin-2-yl)ethylidene)ethanamine (L1), 2-methoxy-N-((pyridin-2-yl)methylene)ethanamine (L2), N,N-diethyl-N-((pyridin-2-yl)methylene)ethane-1,2-diamine (L3) and 2-((pyridin-2-yl)methyleneamino)ethanol (L4) using NABH4 produced their corresponding amine analogues N-(2-methoxyethyl)-1-(pyridin-2-yl)ethanamine (L1a), 2-methoxy-N-((pyridin-2-yl)methyl)-ethanamine (L2a), N,N-diethyl-N-((pyridin-2-yl)methyl)ethane-1,2-diamine (L3a) and 2-((pyridin-2-yl)methylamino)ethanol (L4a) in good yields. Reactions of the (amino)pyridine ligands L1a–L4a with [NiBr2(DME)] afforded nickel(II) complexes, [NiBr2(L1a)2] (1), [NiBr2(L2a)2] (2), [NiBr2(L3a)2] (3) and [NiBr2(L4a)2] (4), respectively in quantitative yields. Molecular structures of complexes 2 and 4 confirmed the formation of the bis(chelated)nickel(II) complexes. Activation of complexes 1–4 with either EtAlCl2 or methylaluminoxane (MAO), produced active ethylene oligomerization catalysts to afford mostly ethylene dimers (C4), in addition to trimmers (C6) and tetramers (C8). Density functional theory studies provided valuable insight into the reactivity trends and influence of complex structure on the ethylene oligomerization reactions.

متن کاملIntelligent catalysts for ethylene oligomerization and polymerization
EEthylene polymerization catalysts became available in an enormous variety. The challenge in this research is to find catalysts that are able to connect ethylene molecules in such a way that not only linear chains are produced but variations like branched materials that possess very interesting mechanical properties like linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE). In this contribution, three diffe...

Schiff base complexes of transition metals are of particular interest to inorganic chemists because of their structural, spectral and chemical properties, which are often strongly dependant on the nature of the ligand structure. Large number of metal (II) complexes with Schiff-base ligands has been extensively studied for their interesting structural specialties, applications and properties. Th...

Herein, a theoretical study on the stability of some vic-dioxime complexes of Ni(II), Pd(II) and Pt(II) in gas and aqueous phases is reported. The DFT/M06/SDD and DFT/M06/6-31G+(d,p) levels of theory were adopted for the metal ions and for every other element respectively. Structural analyses of investigated complexes have revealed square planar geometries stabilized by two O–H⋯Cl hydrogen bond...
