an octahedral cobalt(iii) complex, trans-[(me2bpb)co(bzlan)2]clo4 (1), with h2me2bpb = n,n’-(4,5-dimethyl-1,2-phenylene)dipicolinamide and bzlan = benzylamine, has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, ir, uv-vis, and 1h nmr spectroscopy. the structure of this complex has been determined by x-ray crystallography. the me2bpb2– is a di-anionic tetradentate ligand furnishing a ...

Treatment of [N(n)Bu(4)][Os(VI)(N)Cl(4)] with a stoichiometric amount of H(2)L (L = N,N'-bis(salicylidene)-o-cyclohexylenediamine dianion) in the presence of PF(6)(-) or ClO(4)(-) in MeOH affords [Os(VI)(N)(L)(OH(2))](PF(6)) 1a and [Os(VI)(N)(L)(CH(3)OH)](ClO(4)) 1b, respectively. The structure of 1b has been determined by X-ray crystallography and the Os≡N bond distance is 1.627(3) Å. In the p...

Currently only docetaxel has been approved to be used in the chemotherapy of prostate cancer and new drugs are urgent need. Salen-Mn is a novel type of synthetic reagent bionic and exerts remarkable anticancer activities. However, the effect of Salen-Mn on human prostate cancer has not been elucidated yet. In this study, we found that treatment of PC-3 and DU145 human prostate cancer cells with...

The encapsulation of homogeneous chiral catalysts, e.g. Co(Salen) and Ru-TsDPEN, in the mesoporous cage of SBA-16 is demonstrated; the encapsulated catalysts show performance as good as that of the homogeneous catalysts, and can be recycled for more than 10 times without significant loss of catalytic performance.

The use of (salen)Co catalysts as a new class of bench-stable stereoselective glycosylation promoters of trichloroacetimidate glycosyl donors at room temperature is described. The conditions are practical and do not require the use of molecular sieves with products being isolated in good to high yields.

A bifunctional cationic porous organic polymer based on a Salen-(Al) metalloligand (Al-CPOP) containing imidazolium functionality exhibited enhanced activity and good recyclability in the cycloaddition of carbon dioxide to produce cyclic carbonates without the addition of co-catalysts at atmospheric pressure.

The C(2)-symmetrical "salen" ligand (+)-9 bearing two [5]ferrocenophane substituents has been prepared in five steps starting from readily available diacetylferrocene, p-hydroxybenzaldehyde and (R,R)-N,N'-diphenylethylenediamine. Reaction of (+)-9 with Mn(OAc)(3), Co(OAc)(2) ZnEt(2) or UO(2)(OAc)(2) gave the corresponding metal-complexes which were characterised by spectroscopic methods.
