The solid catalyst with high catalytic activity and enantioselectivity in the hydrolytic kinetic resolution (HKR) of epoxides was prepared by confining Co(Salen) in the nanocage of SBA-16 through reducing the pore entrance size using a silylation method. It was found that the activity of the solid catalysts increased with the number of [Co(Salen)] molecules per nanocage increasing, and the soli...

Mechanistic studies have revealed that the isospecific polymerization of epoxides by a discrete salen cobalt(III) catalyst occurs at the surface of the undissolved, crystalline complex.

In the mononuclear salen-type complex, [Er(NO(3))(3)(C(18)H(20)N(2)O(4))], the Er(III) ion is ten-coordinated in a distorted hexa-deca-hedral geometry by six O atoms of three nitrate anions and four O atoms of the salen-like ligand. Inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds occur. The crystal structure is stabilized by inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

Described are syntheses, characterizations, and photochemical reactions of the nitrosyl complexes Ru(salen)(ONO)(NO) (I, salen = N,N'-ethylenebis(salicylideneiminato) dianion), Ru(salen)(Cl)(NO) (II), Ru((t)Bu(4)salen)(Cl)(NO) (III,(t)Bu(4)salen = N,N'-ethylenebis(3,5-di-tert-butylsalicylideneiminato) dianion), Ru((t)Bu(4)salen)(ONO)(NO) (IV), Ru((t)Bu(2)salophen)(Cl)(NO) (V, (t)Bu(2)salophen =...

Salen ligands and relative metal complexes are widely used in many fields, such as catalysis, sensing, optical electronic materials. The introduction of a wide range substituents different positions, both the salen scaffold diamine bridge, allows tuning chemical, catalytic spectroscopic properties. In this contribution, we report synthesis characterization new ligand Co(II) complex bearing male...

The geometric and electronic structure of a doubly oxidized bimetallic Co complex containing two redox-active salen moieties connected via a 1,2-phenylene linker was investigated and compared to an oxidized monomeric analogue. Both complexes, namely, CoL(1) and Co2L(2), are oxidized to the mono- and dications, respectively, with AgSbF6 and characterized by X-ray crystallography for the monomer ...

Two hydroxo-bridged complexes, {[Mn(III)(3-CH(3)O)salen](2)[Cr(III)(salen)(OH)(2)]}ClO(4)·6H(2)O (1) and {[Mn(III)(5-CH(3))salen](2)(OH)}ClO(4)·3H(2)O (2) [salen = N,N'-ethylenebis(salicylideneiminato) dianion], have been synthesized by the hydrolysis of the corresponding Mn(III)(Schiff-Bases) derivatives and [Cr(salen)(H(2)O)(2)]Cl precursors. X-Ray structure characterization reveals the discr...

A new water-soluble, salen [salen = bis(salicylidene) ethylenediamine]-based ligand, 3 was developed. Two of the metal complexes of this ligand, i.e., 3a, [Mn(III)] and 3b, [Ni(II)], in the presence of cooxidant magnesium monoperoxyphthalate (MMPP) cleaved plasmid DNA pTZ19R efficiently and rapidly at a concentration approximately 1 microM. In contrast, under comparable conditions, other metal ...

in this paper, the mer-co(nh3)3(no2)3 complex was used as a new precursor for synthesizing spinel-type cobalt oxide nanoparticles (co3o4nps).thermal decomposition of the complex at low temperature (175 °c) resulted in the co3o4nps without using expensive and toxic solvents or complicated equipment. xrd, ft-ir, sem, edx, and tem were employed to characterize the product, and its optical and magn...
