O-Functionalised salen ligands were employed as bridging ligands in the synthesis of homo- and heterometallic salen complexes with early and late transition metals (H(2)salen: N,N'-bis(salicylidene)ethylenediamine, systematic name: 2,2'-{ethane-1,2-diylbis(nitrilomethylidine)}diphenol). A new type of O-functionalised salen ligand was synthesised, which contains alkyl groups to enhance the solub...

In this study, Mn (III) salen complex was synthesized and immobilized onto the graphene oxide, which is modified by 3-chloropropyltrimethoxy silane. Heterogeneous catalyst was characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, fourier transform infrared spectra, nitrogen adsorption−desorption isotherm and atomic absorption spectroscopy. The catalyt...

Polyisobutylene is shown to be a nonpolar phase tag that separates a highly colored salen Cr(III) complex from products but is otherwise kinetically similar to a low molecular weight salen Cr(III) complex in polycarbonate formation by Cr(III)-catalyzed copolymerization of CO2 and cyclohexene oxide.

The [Co(Me(2)Salen)(PBu(3))(OH(2))]BF4 and [Co(Me(2)Salen)(PPh(3))(Solv)]BF(4), complexes were synthesized and characterized by FT-IR, UV-Vis, (1)H NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis techniques. The coordination geometry of [Co(Me(2)Salen)(PPh(3))(H(2)O)]BF(4) was determined by X-ray crystallography. It has been found that the complex is containing [Co(Me(2)Salen)(PPh(3))(H(2)O)]BF(4) and ...

Immobilization of the chiral salen-metal complex [Mn(III)(salen)(H(2)O)(2)ClO(4)] on the Keggin-type polyoxometalate (POM) skeletons leads to the isolation of POM derivatives functionalized with chiral salen-metal complexes, which represent the first examples of introducing chiral salen-metal complexes into the POM systems.

A catalyst system comprised of a Co(III)(salen) complex and a Lewis base is investigated for the reaction of CO2 and a variety of epoxides to form cyclic carbonates. Application of this catalyst system in the kinetic resolution of propylene oxide is also discussed.

the reaction between ni(ii), co(ii), cr(iii) bitrates, ni(ii) chloride and ambidentate a-keto ylide benzoylmethylenetriphenylphosphine (bppy) resulted in isolation of [ni(bppy)2](no3)2.2h2o, [ni(bppy)2]cl2, [co(bppy)2](no3)2 and [cr(bppy)3](no3)3; 2h2o. the compounds were characterized by elemental analyses and infrared 1hnmr spectroscopy, molar conductivity in solution and molecular weight mea...

Generating promising materials for the conversion of CO2 to valuable industrial products under mild conditions is important both ameliorating greenhouse effect and sustainable development. Pillar[5]arene-incorporated have recently emerged as building frameworks construct versatile functional polymeric materials. Herein, we demonstrate that highly efficient fixation cyclic carbonates can be achi...

1, 8-Dioxo-octahydroxanthene derivatives have efficiently been synthesized from dimedone and aromatic aldehydes using [Fe(III)(salen)Cl] complex as an efficient and homogeneous catalyst in molten tetrabutyl ammonium bromide. This methodology offers several advantages, such as good yields, short reaction times, simple procedure, and mild conditions.
