A combinatorial in situ three-component chiral oxazoline-Schiff base copper(II) complex catalyst formation method was developed. This simple combinatorial chiral catalyst approach provided a modular library of chiral oxazoline-Schiff base copper(II) complex catalysts. The catalytic activity of these in situ generated catalysts can be rapidly and conveniently evaluated in the asymmetric Henry re...

In the title complex, [Cu(C(14)H(13)N(2)O(2))(2)], the Cu(II) ion is located on a crystallographic inversion center. The complex thus adopts a square-planar trans-[CuN(2)O(2)] coordination geometry, with the Cu(II) ion coordinated by two 2-meth-oxy-6-(3-pyridylmethyl-imino-meth-yl)phenolate (Schiff base) ligands. The aryl and pyridyl rings in the Schiff base are almost perpendicular to each oth...

In the title compound, [Cu(2)(C(15)H(12)N(2)O(4))(2)(C(6)H(5)N)(2)], each Cu(II) atom is chelated by the tridentate doubly deprotonated Schiff base and a pyridine mol-ecule in a nearly planar environment (r.m.s. deviation for all non-H atoms = 0.107 Å). The metal ions are bridged by one O atom from the symmetry-related Schiff base ligands, forming a centrosymmetric dinuclear copper(II) complex....

A novel ternary Schiff base ligand (HL) of ONO type and its copper (II) complex weresynthesised using 2-aminophenol and o-acetoacetotoluidide. They have been characterised by theusual analytical and spectral methods. The interaction of the complex with calf-thymus (CT)DNA has been investigated by UV-Vis, viscosity measurement, cyclic voltammetry anddifferential pulse voltammetry studies. The re...

Acylhydrazine derived furanyl and thienyl Schiff bases and their Cu(II) complexes have been prepared and characterized on the basis of their physical, spectral and analytical data. The preferred enolic form of the Schiff base function as a tetradentate ligand during coordination to the metal ion yielding a square planar complex. The Schiff bases and their complexes with different anions were te...

In the centrosymmetric dinuclear copper(II) title complex, [Cu(2)Br(2)(C(12)H(17)N(2)O)(2)]·H(2)O, each Cu(II) ion is five coordinated in a square-pyramidal geometry by the N,N',O-tridentate Schiff base, one Br atom and the bridging O atom of the centrosymmetrically related Schiff base. In the crystal, the water mol-ecules link the complex mol-ecules into infinite chains along the b axis via O-...
