CPL active enantiopure zinc(ii) complexes based on the first tetradentate salen ligands surrounded by [4]helicene moieties and chiral 1,2-cyclohexane-diamine are reported.

A series of salen-type zirconium complexes of the general formula LZrCl2 (L = N,N 0-ethylenebis(salicylideneiminate), 3a; N, N 0-ethylenebis(3,5-di-tert-butylsalicylideneiminate), 3b; N,N 0-ethylenebis(5-methoxysalicylideneiminate), 3c; N,N 0-ethylenebis(5chlorosalicylideneiminate), 3d; N,N 0-ethylenebis(5-nitrosalicylideneiminate), 3e; N,N 0-o-phenylenebis(salicylideneiminate), 4a; N,N 0-o-phe...

Four isomorphic tetranuclear lanthanide complexes, namely [Ln4(L)2(HL)2(NO3)2(OH)2](NO3)2·4H2O (Ln = Dy (1); Tb (2); Ho (3); Er (4)), constructed using hexadentate salen-type ligand N,N'-bis(3-methoxy-salicylidene)cyclohexane-1,2-diamine, have been isolated. X-ray crystallographic analysis reveals that all of the complexes 1-4 are of discrete tetranuclear structure with a unique {Ln4O8} core in...

A preparação e a caracterização eletroquímica de um eletrodo de pasta de carbono modificado com o complexo N,N ́-etilenobis(salicilidenoaminato) de oxovanádio(IV) ([VO(Salen)]), como também o seu comportamento eletrocatalítico na oxidação da dipirona foi investigado. O comportamento eletroquímico do eletrodo modificado e a eletrooxidação da dipirona foram estudados usando a voltametria cíclica. ...

The hexavalent oxidation state of chromium [Cr(VI)] is a well-established human carcinogen, although the mechanism of cancer induction is currently unknown. Intracellular reduction of Cr(VI) forms Cr(V), which is thought to play a fundamental role in the mechanism of DNA damage by this carcinogen. Two separate pathways of DNA damage, an oxidative pathway and a metal-binding pathway, have been p...

In the title compound, [Cu(C22H24N2O4)]·H2O, the Cu(II) atom is four-coordinated in a distorted planar geometry with a mean deviation of 0.1164 (2) Å for the plane generated by the ligating atoms of the salen-type Schiff base ligand. In the crystal, O(water)-H⋯O and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds form a three-dimensional-network.

The synthesis, characterization and photoswitching behavior of a new salen type Schiff base N,N'-bis(2-hydroxy-5-phenylazobenzilidene)-2,4,6-trimethylbenzene-1,3-diamine (H₂L) and a binuclear zinc(ii) metallacycle [{Zn(L)}2·2H2O] (1) have been described. Both H₂L and 1 have been characterized by satisfactory elemental analyses, spectral (FT-IR, (1)H, (13)C NMR, ESI-MS, electronic absorption, em...

We have successfully prepared an unsymmetrical analogue of a Katsuki-type salen ligand having a hydroxyalkyl group at the 6-position of just one of the binaphthyl units in the ligand, and also several Mn(III) complexes; these complexes have been attached to a polymer by an ester link and such polymer catalysts have been shown to be highly enantioselective and recoverable catalysts for the epoxi...

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.
