the mode of coordination of8 manganese(fi), cobaltm, nickel(h), copper(ii), zinc(h), lead(ii) and cadmium(i1) to sodium ascorbate (nahasc) was investigated using ir, uv-visible, aas, elemental microanalyzer, conductivity, magnetic and 'm and i3c nmr spectroscopic studies, nanasc is bidentate and coordination was through the carbonyl group and the oxygen atom of carbon-2 enolic hydfoxyl gro...

The treatment of [Ru(η6-p-cymene)Cl2]2 with N,N’-(1,2-phenylene)dipicolinamide (H2L1) afforded the double salt complex [{Ru(η6-p-cymene)2-µ-Cl}L1][Ru(η6-p-cymene)Cl3], (Ru1) in moderate yields. Separately, reactions ligands (H2L1), N,N’-(4,5 dimethyl-1,2-phenylene)dipicolinamide (H2L2), and N,N’-(4-methoxy-1,2-phenylene)dipicolinamide (H2L3) presence KPF6 respective dinuclear half-sandwich Ru(I...

Copper (II) complexes of three phosphonate ligands were prepared and fully characterized by elemental analysis, spectral and thermal studies. The IR spectral data showed that the phosphonate compounds behave as bidentate ligands coordinating to the copper ion through the P=O and NH groups. The electronic spectroscopic data support a distorted octahedral geometry around copper ion. The activity ...

A series of novel, dinuclear (2,2':6',2''-terpyridine)platinum(ii) complexes containing bis(thioalkyl)-dicarba-closo-dodecaborane(12)(carborane) ligands were prepared and characterised, and their preliminary anti-cancer characteristics have been determined in vitro; the complexes are the first examples of bis-intercalator complexes containing a boron-rich carborane cage.

Dinuclear rhodium complexes are attractive candidates as homogeneous panchromatic photosensitizers and photocatalysts. Modification of the coordination sphere Rh2(II,II) compounds results in photophysical redox properties that highly desirable for electro- photocatalysis. Optimization catalysts is crucial to realize their future application devices or systems designed production fuels from sunl...

Oxovanadium(IV), manganese(II) and copper(II) complexes of a Schiff base ligand derived from 2,4-dihydroxyacetophenone and 1,2-diaminocyclohexane have been encapsulated in the nanocavity of zeolite-Y by flexible ligand method and characterized by metal analysis, IR spectroscopic studies and X-ray diffraction patterns. The encapsulated complexes abbreviated here as CuL-Y, MnL-Y and VOL-Y catalyz...

the reaction of an equivalent of 2- mercaptoethyl ammonium chloride with an equivalent of 2,6-diformyl -4- methyl phenol produced monoamine which was reacted with half equivalent of 1,2-diamine ethane to produce ethylene-bis-6-(2-mercapto-ethyl-imine)-methyl -4- methyl phenol [h4l]. the ligand was reacted with metal ions[cr(iii), mn(ii), fe(ii), co(ii), ni(ii), cu(ii), zn(ii), cd(ii), and hg(ii...

The 2-pyridinecarbaldehyde isonicotinoyl hydrazone (HPCIH) family of ligands are typically tridentate N,N,O chelators that exhibit very high in vitro activity in mobilizing intracellular Fe and are promising candidates for the treatment of Fe overload diseases. Complexation of ferrous perchlorate with HPCIH in MeCN solution gives the expected six-coordinate complex Fe(II)(PCIH)(2). However, com...

In an effort to develop new tripodal N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands for small molecule activation, two new classes of tripodal NHC ligands TIME and TIMEN have been synthesized. The carbon-anchored tris(carbene) ligand system TIME (R = Me, t-Bu) forms bior polynuclear metal complexes. While the methyl derivative exclusively forms trinuclear 3:2 complexes [(TIME)2M3] 3+ with group 11 metal ...
