Metal complexes carrying a new class of singlet carbene ligands stabilized by lateral enamine moieties are accessible by oxidative insertion into readily available chloro vinamidinium salts.

Nonheme and heme iron monooxygenases participate in oxidative N-dealkylation reactions in nature, and high-valent oxoiron(IV) species have been invoked as active oxidants that effect the oxygenation of organic substrates. The present study describes the first example of the oxidative N-dealkylation of N,N-dialkylamines by synthetic nonheme oxoiron(IV) complexes and the reactivity comparisons of...

Water-soluble gold(I) complexes [1-mesityl-3-(3-sodiumsulfonatopropyl)imidazol-2-ylidene] gold(I) Chloro (3) and [1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropyl-4-sodiumsulfonatophenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene] gold(I) Chloro (4) were prepared, in high yield, by carbene transmetallation from the appropriate NHC silver complex with chloro tetrahydrothiophene gold ([AuCl(tht)]). The antimicrobial properties of both gold(I) c...

Di-chloro-bis[chloro(triphenylphosphine)mercury(II)], [Hg2Cl4(C18H15P)2], (I), and di-bromo-bis[bromo(triphenylphosphine)mercury(II)], [Hg2Br4(C18H15P)2], (II), have been reinvestigated at 120 K. The molecules of (I) lie across inversion centres in space group P21/n, and in both (I) and (II) the complexes are linked into three-dimensional frameworks by a combination of CÐH X (X = Cl and Br) and...

Reaction of 2-X-N-methylbenzimidazole (X = chloro, iodo) with Ni(0) complexes in the presence of dppe or PEt(3) and an external proton source yielded via an oxidative addition reaction nickel(II) complexes bearing NH,NMe-functionalized NHC ligands.

Complexes of the diuretic benzothiadiazine derivative chlorothiazide (6-chloro-7-sulfamoyl- 1,2,4-benzothiadiazine-1,1-dioxide) with V(IV); Fe(II); Co(II); Ni(II); Cu(II), Ag(I) and U(VI) were prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, spectroscopic, thermogravimetric, magnetic and conductimetric measurements. The complexes behave as effective inhibitors for two isozymes (I and II) of ca...

In this work, we report the electrochemical response of a family Co(II) complexes, [CoII(L)3]2+ and [CoII(L’)2]2+ (L = 2,2’-bipyridine, 1,10-phenanthroline, 3,4,7,8-tetramethyl-1,10-phenanthroline, 5,6-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline, 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline; L’ terpyridine 4-chloro-terpyridine), in presence absence CO2 order to understand role redox potential molecular structure on catal...

The mixed-ligand complexes of various metal(II) with 5-chloro-7-iodo-8-hydroxyquinoline (Clioquinol) and 5-(methoxymethyl-8-quinolinol) (MMQ) were prepared. The structure of mixed-ligand complexes was investigated using spectral, physicochemical, elemental analyses and thermal studies. Magnetic moment and reflectance spectral studies reveal that an octahedral geometry has been assigned to all t...
