In the title dinuclear salen-type complex, [CuEu(C(22)H(24)N(2)O(4))(NO(3))(3)(CH(3)OH)], the Cu(II) ion is five-coordinated to two imine N atoms and two phenolate O atoms and one O from the bridging nitrate group. The Eu(III) ion is ligated to three nitrate groups, four O atoms from the salen-type ligand and one methanol mol-ecule, leading to a distorted tenfold coordination for the rare earth...

The (salen)Co(III)-catalyzed hydrolytic kinetic resolution (HKR) of terminal epoxides is a bimetallic process with a rate controlled by partitioning between a nucleophilic (salen)Co-OH catalyst and a Lewis acidic (salen)Co-X catalyst. The commonly used (salen)Co-OAc and (salen)Co-Cl precatalysts undergo complete and irreversible counterion addition to epoxide during the course of the epoxide hy...

Oxygenation Catalyst, Cobalt Schiff-Base Complex, Crystal Structure, Electrochemistry N,N'-Bis(salicylidene)ethylenediaminatocobalt(III) hydroxide is treated with chloroform in methanol to yield the corresponding chloride in pure, crystalline form. Results of the crystal structure determination compare well with those in earlier reports of dimeric [Co(salen)Cl]2 units and incorporated CHC13 mol...

In the title complex, [Mn(II)Mn(III) (2)(C(11)H(13)NO(4))(2)(CH(3)CO(2))(4)(H(2)O)(2)]·2CH(3)CN·2H(2)O, there are two Mn(III) and one Mn(II) atoms. The Mn(II) atom lies on an inversion center and the Mn(III)-Mn(II)-Mn(III) angle is therefore 180°, as required by crystallographic symmetry. The Mn(III) and Mn(II) atoms are six-coordinated in a distorted octa-hedral geometry. In the crystal, compl...

Catechol-functionalized (salen)Mn complexes can be supported on mesoporous anodized aluminium oxide disks to yield catalytic membranes that are highly active in the enantioselective epoxidation of olefins when being deployed in a forced-through-flow reactor.

Herein we describe the chemical reactivity of the mononuclear [Mn(II)(N4py)(OTf)](OTf) (1) complex with hydrogen peroxide and superoxide. Treatment of 1 with one equivalent superoxide at -40 °C in MeCN formed the peroxomanganese(III) adduct, [Mn(III)(O2)(N4py)](+) (2) in ~30% yield. Complex 2 decayed over time and the formation of the bis(μ-oxo)dimanganese(III,IV) complex, [Mn(III)Mn(IV)(μ-O)2(...

In this work, we revisited the disassembly approach (also known as Zelder's approach) recently proposed for sensing pyrophosphate (PPi) in water and based on decomposition of metal-salen complexes. A systematic study devoted to structural optimization novel class PPi-responsive fluorogenic probes was conducted. Screening eight different vicinal diamines ( i.e. , bridge salen ligand) combined wi...
