mn(ii) salen complex immobilized on nano silicagel was prepared by incorporating mn(ii) salen complex into a nanosilica matrix and characterized by tga, xrd, atomic absorption spectroscopy and was successfully applied as catalyst for the oxidation of alcohols. oxidation of a series of alcohols in acetonitrile over immobilized mn(ii) salen complex using tetrabutylammonium peroxymonosulfate (tbao...

Mn(II) salen complex immobilized on nano silicagel was prepared by incorporating Mn(II) salen complex into a nanosilica matrix and characterized by TGA, XRD, atomic absorption spectroscopy and was successfully applied as catalyst for the oxidation of alcohols. Oxidation of a series of alcohols in acetonitrile over immobilized Mn(II) salen complex using tetrabutylammonium peroxymonosulfate (TBAO...

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...

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...

A new Mn(Salen) complex bearing an ureido group as an auxiliary that is three-dimensionally fixed by a cyclopentane ring fused to the Salen structure was developed. This compound exhibited considerably higher catalase-like activity than the original Mn(Salen), i.e., the cyclopentane-fused Mn(Salen) without the auxiliary, under near-physiological conditions.

A pioneering research on a self-assembly of the magneto-anisotropic module [Re(CN)7] with the Mn(III) complexes involving Salen type (N,N′-ethylenebis(salicylideneiminate)) Schiff base (SB) ligands was performed using the known [Mn(Salen)(H2O)2]2(ClO4)2·H2O (1) and the firstly synthesized [Mn2(Salen)2OAc]PF6 (2). In the case of 1, a slow diffusion of the component solutions led to the ionic com...

We analyzed the apoptosis and anti-tumour activities of several Mn(III)-salen and -salphen complexes (1-14) towards three different cultured human cancer and non-cancer cells. We demonstrated that most of the Mn(III)-salen and -salphen complexes affect cell viability and induce apoptosis in MCF7 cells. Biochemically active Mn(III)-salen and -salphen complexes induced nuclear fragmentation and r...

By the reaction of chiral Mn(III) Schiff-base complexes with the dicyanoruthenate building block, [Ru(salen)(CN)2](-) (salen(2-) = N,N'-ethylenebis(salicylideneimine) dianion), two couples of enantiomerically pure chiral cyano-bridged heterobimetallic one-dimensional (1D) chain complexes, [Mn((R,R)-salcy)Ru(salen)(CN)2]n (1-(RR)) and [Mn((S,S)-salcy)Ru(salen)(CN)2]n (1-(SS)) (Salcy = N,N'-(1,2-...

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...

Hybrid quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) methods were employed to study electronic effects of 5,5'-substituents on the enantioselectivity of (salen)Mn catalysts. Correlations obtained from the QM/MM calculations elucidated electronic framework effects on enantioselectivity for (salen)Mn heterogenized in a metal-organic framework (MOF). The correlations also enabled fast ligand scree...
