Oxovanadium(IV), manganese(II) and copper(II) complexes of a Schiff base ligand derived from 2,4-dihydroxyacetophenone and 1,2-diaminocyclohexane have been encapsulated in the nanocavity of zeolite-Y by flexible ligand method and characterized by metal analysis, IR spectroscopic studies and X-ray diffraction patterns. The encapsulated complexes abbreviated here as CuL-Y, MnL-Y and VOL-Y catalyz...

The new class of homo- and heteroleptic n-butyl-N,N'-disubstituted amidinato group 14 metal(II) complexes were prepared by salt elimination from starting lithium amidinates and metal(II) chlorides both in stoichiometric ratio 2:1 and 1:1, respectively. The target amidinates contain less bulky isopropyl or cyclohexyl as well as a sterically demanding aromatic substituent. Desired 1:1 Pb(II) comp...

Periodic-boundary and cluster calculations of the magnetic-shielding tensors of (119)Sn sites in various co-ordination and stereochemical environments are reported. The results indicate a significant difference between the predicted NMR chemical shifts for tin(ii) sites that exhibit stereochemically-active lone pairs and tin(iv) sites that do not have stereochemically-active lone pairs. The pre...

Schiff base and their metal complexes have been widely used as photovoltaic materials due to excellent π-electron transfer properties along the molecule. A total of eleven conjugated symmetrical bis-Schiff with different π-spacers synthesized spectroscopically characterized in order investigate conversion efficiency dye-sensitizer solar cells (DSSC). All compounds were either substituted hydrox...

A series of beta-diketiminate lead halide complexes has been synthesised LPbCl (2), LPbBr (3) and LPbI (4) (L = {N(2,6-(i)Pr(2)C(6)H(3))C(Me)}2CH]), which includes a rare example of a three-coordinate lead iodide (4). The chloride and bromide complexes, 2 and 3, are relatively stable in both the solid and solution states, only slowly decomposing to elemental lead over the course of a month in s...

In thecurrent research work,eleven metal complexes were synthesized from the hydrazide derivative of ursolic acid. Metal complexes of tin, antimony and iron were synthesized and characterized by FT-IR and NMR spectroscopy. The antibacterial and antioxidant activities were performed for these complexes, which revealed that the metal complexes synthesized are more potent than their parent compoun...

The title compound, [Sn(C4H9)2(CH3COO)2], was synthesized in order to study the influence of large organic groups on the mol-ecular structure of diorganotin di-acetates. The title compound exhibits the same structure type as other diorganotin(IV) di-acetates characterized by an unsymmetrical bidentate bonding mode of the two acetate groups to tin. The influence of the t-butyl groups on this mol...

In the title monomeric trimethyl-tin(IV) isothio-cyanate-4,4-dimethyl-pyridine adduct, [Sn(CH(3))(3)(NCS)(C(7)H(10)N(2))], the Sn(IV) atom shows a trans-C(3)SnN(2) trigonal bipyramidal coordination. The Sn(IV) atom lies out of the equatorial plane by 0.033 (4) Å in the direction of the donor N atom of the N-heterocycle. The crystal studied was a non-merohedral twin with a minor component of 48....
