The reaction of the mononuclear Ni(II) building block [NiL] an asymmetrically dicondensed N2O3 donor Schiff base ligand, N-salicylidene-N′-3-methoxysalicylidene-1,3-propanediamine (H2L), with LnCl3·6H2O (Ln = Gd, Tb, Dy) in a 2:1 molar ratio leads to formation three hexanuclear carbonato-bridged Ni4Ln2 complexes formulated as [Ni4Ln2(CO3)2Cl2(L)2(L′)2(CH3CN)2]·4CH3CN·2H2O Tb (2), Dy (3)), where H2L′ N,N′-bis(salicylidene)-1,3-propanediamine. In complex 1, unsymmetrical nature remains intact;...

A new series of high-spin [CoII2] complexes [Co2(cpdp)(μ-O2CC6H5)] (1), [Co2(cpdp)(μ-o-O2CC6H4(OH))]·H2O (2), and [Co2(cpdp)(μ-p-O2CC6H4(OH))]·5H2O (3) the carboxylate-affixed multidentate ligand, N,N′-bis[2-carboxybenzomethyl]-N,N′-bis[2-pyridylmethyl]-1,3-diaminopropan-2-ol (H3cpdp), have been synthesized structurally characterized [C6H5CO2– = benzoate; o-C6H4(OH)CO2– ortho-hydroxybenzoate; p-C6H4(OH)CO2– para-hydroxybenzoate]. In methanol, 1, 2, 3 by carrying out reaction H3cpdp with...

Four new heterometallic Cu(II)-U(VI) species, [{(CuL1)(CH3CN)}UO2(NO3)2] (1), [{(CuL2)(CH3CN)}UO2(NO3)2] (2), [{(CuL3)(H2O)}UO2(NO3)2] (3), and [UO2(NO3)2(H2O)2]·2[CuL4]·H2O (4), were synthesized using four different metalloligands ([CuL1], [CuL2], [CuL3], [CuL4], respectively) derived from unsymmetrically dicondensed N,O-donor Schiff bases. Single-crystal structural analyses revealed that complexes 1, 2, 3 have a discrete dinuclear [Cu-UO2] core in which one metalloligand, [CuL], is...

The reactivity of biological or synthetic metalloenzymes is modulated in the presence redox innocent Lewis acidic metal ions as they change potential active present site metalloenzymes. To study this effect, we synthesised a mono-nuclear V(IV) complex (VOL, 1) with an N2O4 donor bicompartmental ligand, characterized it by single-crystal X-ray crystallography and recorded its cyclic voltammogram acetonitrile. CV revealed reversible process for V(IV)/V(V) couple. couple shifted to more...

Abstract A novel discrete dodecanuclear Cu(II) complex, [Cu 12 L 2 6 (OH) ]⋅2CH 3 CN ( 1 ) has been synthesised using an N O donor unsymmetrical Schiff base ligand derived from the condensation of 1,3‐diamino‐2‐propanol with salicylaldehyde and o ‐hydroxyacetophenone. Single crystal X‐ray diffraction study indicates that each deprotonated chelates two centres which are also bridged by alkoxo oxygen; six such dinuclear units joined phenoxo groups as well hydroxo bridges to form structure....
