A new series of transition metal complexes of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II), has beensynthesized from the Knoevenagel condensate Schiff base ligand(L) derived from β-ketoanilideand furfural with o-phenylenediamine and diethylmalonate. Structural features were determinedby spectral and analytical techniques. Square-planar geometry has been adopted by thecomplexes except cobalt complex which ...

the antimicrobial activity of some novel ascorbic acid-metal complexes [bisascorbate complexes of copper (ii), zinc(ii), manganese (11), iron (111), cobalt(ii), lead(ii) and cadmium(ii)] was investigated. four standard strains of bacterial species - staphylococcus aureus, escherichia coli, bacillus subtilis and klebsiella pneumonia and four fungal species - trichophyton sp. penicillium sp., asp...

several novel mononuclear zn(ii) complexes, [zn(bpy)l2], where bpy=2,2’-bipyridine and l=monoanions of phenylcyanamide (pcyd), 4-methylphenylcyanamide (4-mepcyd), 3,5-dimethylphenylcyanamide(3,5-me2pcyd),4-methoxyphenylcyanamide(4-meopcyd), 3,5-dimeth-oxyphenylcyanamide (3,5-meo2pcyd), 3-chlorophenylcyanamide (3-clpcyd), 2,3-dichlorophenyl-cyanamide (2,3-cl2pcyd), 4-bromophenylcyanamide (4-brpc...

The unsymmetrical dinucleating ligand 2-(N-isopropyl-N-((2-pyridyl)methyl)aminomethyl)-6-(N-(carboxylmethyl)-N-((2-pyridyl)methyl)aminomethyl)-4-methylphenol (IPCPMP or L) has been synthesized to model the active site environment of dinuclear metallohydrolases. It has been isolated as the hexafluorophosphate salt H(4)IPCPMP(PF(6))(2) x 2 H(2)O (H(4)L), which has been structurally characterized,...

copper complexes of [cu(phen)(tda)].2h2o(1) and [(phen)2cu(µ-tda) cu(phen)](clo4)2.1.5h2o (2) (where phen is 1,10-phenanthroline and tda2- is thiodiacetate) have been synthesized. both complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, ir, uv–vis spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry. their solid state structures were determined by the single crystal x-ray diffraction method. complex 1 is mononu...

The title compound, PHZ, can be viewed as 1,5-diazacyclooctane (daco) having carbon-3 and carbon-7 fused to benzene rings restricting the vibrational freedom of these carbons and rendering the axial positions in the complexes open for fifth and sixth coordination. Copper(II), nickel(H) and zinc(H) complexes of P H Z have been prepared. Copper(II) formed monoand bis-complexes, whereas nickel(H) ...

Unprotected mononuclear pyrene-modified (bispyridylaminomethyl)methylphenol copper complexes were designed to be immobilized at multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) electrodes and form dinuclear bis(mu-phenolato) on the surface. These exhibit a high oxygen reduction reaction activity of 12.7 mA cm(-2) an onset potential 0.78 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode. The higher these compared that ...

Oximato bridged dinuclear copper(II) complex [Cu(L)(CH3OH)]2(ClO4)2 with an oxime-Schiff base ligand, viz. 3-[2-[(dimethylamino)ethyl]imino]-2-butanoneoxime (HL), has been synthesized and structurally characterized. The dinuclear copper(II) complex crystallizes in monoclinic space group P21/n with the unit cell parameters, a = 13.3564(9) Å, b = 12.0821(8) Å, c = 17.5045(11) Å, β = 90.097, V = 2...
