Quantitative structure activity relationship (QSAR) for the anticancer activity of Fe(III)-salen and salen-like complexes was studied. The methods of density function theory (B3LYP/LANL2DZ) were used to optimize the structures. A pool of descriptors was calculated: 1497 theoretical descriptors and quantum-chemical parameters, shielding NMR, and electronic descriptors. The study of structure and...

A dynamic supramolecular system involving hydrogen bonding between a Mn(III) salen catalyst and a Zn(II) porphyrin receptor exhibits selectivity for pyridine appended cis-beta-substituted styrene derivatives over phenyl appended derivatives in a catalytic epoxidation reaction.

The electrocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) into added-value products is a promising alternative to completing the cycle atmospheric CO2. We report two new platinum complexes—a salen-like naphthalene (PtL1) and hydroxy-substituted salpn (PtL2)—that are capable activating CO2 produce monoxide (CO). predominant keto tautomer non-innocent ligands was determined using DFT calculations UV...

properly furnished, metal complexes from salen ligands can recognize neutral molecules, 1 and extract alkaline metal ions 2 as well as cations and anions 3 in addition to possessing catalytic properties. The interaction between central metal ions and substrates is much controlled by peripheral groups of ligands. In order to establish design criteria for more effective salen complexes, we prepar...

For the helix-shaped vines growing in garden, as well for many bioactive molecules and other three-dimensional objects, chirality is an essential ubiquitous property. The synthetic control of atropoisomerism along C−N bonds particularly rare challenging, however. A simple CrIII–salen complex was nevertheless used a chiral enantiopure catalyst highly atroposelective Nenitzescu indole synthesis. ...

A series of cobalt salen complexes, where salen represents an N2O2 bis-Schiff-base bis-phenolate framework, are prepared, characterised and investigated for reversible-termination organometallic mediated radical polymerisation (RT-OMRP). The salen ligands contain a cyclohexane diimine bridge and systematically altered para-substituted phenoxide moieties as a method to examine the electronic imp...

Salen-type mononuclear lanthanide complexes with formula (Et3NH)[Ln(3-NO2-salen)2]·solvent (Ln = Eu (1Eu), Tb (2Tb), Dy (3Dy), Ho (4Ho), Er (5Er), Yb (6Yb); 3-NO2-salen(2-) = N,N'-bis(3-nitro-salicylaldehyde)ethylenediamine dianion) are reported. These compounds are isostructural in which two crystallographically distinct 3-NO2-salen(2-) act as tetradentate ligands encapsulating the lanthanide ...

From a combination of chiral Mn(salen) struts and the tetratopic ligand tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl)benzene, a large-pore, noncatenated metal-organic framework (MOF) material, MnSO-MOF, has been synthesized. Following solvent exchange with hydrophobic CHCl(3), treatment of MnSO-MOF with aqueous H(2)O(2) allowed for the selective demetalation of Mn(salen) struts at and near the surface of the cryst...

the electrochemical behavior of a modified carbon paste electrode (mcpe) with n,n′ethylenbis(salicylideneiminato)copper(ii) complex ([cu(ii)-salen]) was investigated as a newsensor for cystein. the britton-robinson buffer with ph 5, 10% modifier in electrode, potentialscanning rate of 20 mvs-1 and puls height of 50 mv were used as the optimum condition for thedetermination of cysteine using car...
