O-Functionalised salen ligands were employed as bridging ligands in the synthesis of homo- and heterometallic salen complexes with early and late transition metals (H(2)salen: N,N'-bis(salicylidene)ethylenediamine, systematic name: 2,2'-{ethane-1,2-diylbis(nitrilomethylidine)}diphenol). A new type of O-functionalised salen ligand was synthesised, which contains alkyl groups to enhance the solub...

abstractinteraction of ni complex(salen= n, n´-ethylene bis(salicylideneimine)) with hen egg-white lysozyme (hewl) was studied by absorption spectroscopy, competitive binding study and thermal denaturation study. the protein binding affinity of ni complex was found to be (3.0×103m−1). the binding plot obtained from the absorption titration data gives a binding constant of 2.4 (± 0.3)×103 m-1. i...

The [Co(Me(2)Salen)(PBu(3))(OH(2))]BF4 and [Co(Me(2)Salen)(PPh(3))(Solv)]BF(4), complexes were synthesized and characterized by FT-IR, UV-Vis, (1)H NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis techniques. The coordination geometry of [Co(Me(2)Salen)(PPh(3))(H(2)O)]BF(4) was determined by X-ray crystallography. It has been found that the complex is containing [Co(Me(2)Salen)(PPh(3))(H(2)O)]BF(4) and ...

Polyisobutylene is shown to be a nonpolar phase tag that separates a highly colored salen Cr(III) complex from products but is otherwise kinetically similar to a low molecular weight salen Cr(III) complex in polycarbonate formation by Cr(III)-catalyzed copolymerization of CO2 and cyclohexene oxide.

A series of mononuclear salen-supported gallium amido/alkoxide derivatives were prepared and structurally characterized and subsequently used as initiators in rac-lactide ring-opening polymerisation (ROP). The reaction of variously substituted salen ligands (1a-1f) with 0.5 equiv. of Ga2(NMe2)6 allowed the isolation of the corresponding (salen)Ga-NMe2 chelates (2b-2d, 2f) via an amine eliminati...

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...

The electrochemical behavior of a modified carbon paste electrode (MCPE) with N,N′ethylenbis(salicylideneiminato)copper(II) complex ([Cu(II)-Salen]) was investigated as a newsensor for cystein. The Britton-Robinson buffer with pH 5, 10% modifier in electrode, potentialscanning rate of 20 mVs-1 and puls height of 50 mV were used as the optimum condition for thedetermination of cysteine using car...

The title compound, (C(2)H(10)N(2))[Ni(C(16)H(14)N(2)O(2))](4)(ClO(4))(2)·C(3)H(7)NO, crystallizes with four Ni(salen) mol-ecules {salen is 2,2'-[ethane-1,2-diylbis(nitrilo-methyl-idyne)]diphenolate}, one ethyl-enediammonium cation (actually two half-cations, each located on a center of inversion), two perchlorate anions and one dimethyl-formamide solvent mol-ecule in the asymmetric unit. Each ...

Three interconnected catalytic cycles account for the title reaction catalyzed by a bimetallic aluminum(salen) complex and Bu(4)NBr. In the first, Bu(4)NBr acts as a nucleophile to activate the epoxide. In the second, Bu(3)N generated in situ serves to activate CO(2). In the third, the aluminum(salen) complex brings the two activated species together so that the key bonds can be formed intramol...

As part of our ongoing interest in the supramolecular chemistry of fluorinated organomercurials, we have investigated the interaction of bis(pentafluorophenyl)mercury ((C6F5)2Hg), and trimeric (perfluoro-o-phenylene)mercury ([o-C6F4Hg]3), with nickel(II) N,N'-bis(salicylidene)ethylenediamine) (Ni(salen)). While solution studies monitored by UV-VIS spectroscopy suggest that Ni(salen) interacts w...
