Polymer-anchoring Schiff base ligands and their metal complexes: Investigation of their electrochemical,photoluminescence, thermal and catalytic properties

In this study, we prepared three polymer-anchored Schiff base ligands and their Cu(II), Co(II) and Ni(II) transition metal complexes. For this purpose, we synthesized three Schiff base ligands from the reaction of 2,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde with diamines in the ethanol solution and characterized by the analytical and spectroscopic methods. We investigated the electrochemical and photophysical properties of the free Schiff base ligands in different solvents and concentrations. In the electrochemical studies, we found that the ligands show the reversible and irreversible redox processes. In order to obtain the polymer-anchored ligands, we used Merrifield’s peptide resin (PS) as solid support. The surface morphologies of the polymer anchored Schiff base ligands were done with the scanning electron microscopy (SEM). We did alkene epoxidation and alkane oxidation reactions of the metal complexes and used the cyclohexene, styrene, cyclohexane and cyclooctane as the substrate and they show the low catalytic activity. The metal complexes have no selectivity in the oxidation reactions. The polymer anchored Schiff base ligands and their metal complexes have high thermal stability at the higher temperatures.     

Metal-Salen Schiff base complexes in catalysis: practical aspects

Schiff base ligands are considered "privileged ligands" because they are easily prepared by the condensation between aldehydes and imines. Stereogenic centres or other elements of chirality (planes, axes) can be introduced in the synthetic design. Schiff base ligands are able to coordinate many different metals, and to stabilize them in various oxidation states, enabling the use of Schiff base metal complexes for a large variety of useful catalytic transformations. Practical guidelines for the preparation and use of different Schiff base metal complexes in the field of catalytic transformations are discussed in this tutorial review.

Syntheses, characterization, antimicrobial and genotoxic activities of new Schiff bases and their complexes

Two new Schiff base ligands (L¹, L²) have been prepared from the reaction of 2,6-diacetylpyridine and 2-pyridinecarboxyaldehyde with 4-amino-2,3-dimethyl-1-phenyl-3-pyrozolin-5-on, and their Co(II), Cu(II), Ni(II), Mn(II), and Cr(III) metal complexes have also been prepared. The complexes are formed by coordination of N and O atoms of the ligands. Their structures were characterized by physico-chemical and spectroscopic methods. The analytical data shows that the metal to ligand ratio in the Schiff base complexes is 1:2. The Schiff base ligands and all complexes were evaluated for their in vitro antibacterial and antifungal activities by the disc diffusion method. In addition, the genotoxic properties of the ligands were studied.     

Investigation of the oxygen affinity of manganese(II), cobalt(II) and nickel(II) complexes with some tetradentate Schiff bases

Oxygen absorption–desorption processes for square planar Mn(II), Co(II) and Mn(II) complexes of tetradentate Schiff base ligands in DMF and chloroform solvents were investigated. The tetradentate Schiff base ligands were obtained by condensation reaction of ethylenediamine with salcyldehyde, o-hydroxyacetophenone or acetylacetone in the molar ratio 1:2. The square planar complexes were prepared by the reaction of the Schiff base ligands with Mn(II) acetate, Co(II) nitrate and Ni(II) nitrate in dry ethanol under nitrogen atmosphere. The sorption processes were undertaken in the presence and absence of (pyridine) axial-base in 1:1 M ratio of (pyridine:metal(II) complexes). Complexes in DMF indicate significant oxygen affinity than in chloroform solvent. Cobalt(II) complexes showed significant sorption processes compared to Mn(II) and Ni(II) complexes. The presence of pyridine axial base clearly increases oxygen affinity.     

Synthesis, characterization, and antibacterial activity of a cobalt(II) Schiff base complex derived from pyridoxal and sulfanilic acid

Reaction of pyridoxal hydrochloride and sulfanilic acid with CoCl₂ in aqueous methanol solution afforded a Co(II) Schiff base complex, which was characterized by physico-chemical and spectroscopic methods. The structure of the complex was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. In the complex, the Co(II) is sandwiched at the edge of two parallel Schiff base ligands, being coordinated by two phenolic O and two imine N atoms of two Schiff base ligands plus two O atoms of water ligands, forming a distorted octahedral coordination environment. Thermal stability measurements showed that the skeleton of the complex is stable up to 500?K. The antibacterial activity of the complex was screened using the paper disc diffusion method.     

Preparation and characterization of some transition metal complexes of benzoic acid hydrazones of 2-aminonicotinaldehyde

Summary Cu^II, Ni^II, Co^II, Zn^II and Pd^II complexes of tridentate Schiff base ligands derived from the condensation of benzoic acid hydrazides with 2-aminonicotinaldehyde have been prepared and characterized. For M=Cu, Ni, Co and Zn the complexes were formulated as [M(ligand)(H₂O)X] (X=Cl, Br), with a distorted octahedral geometry and tridentate Schiff base ligands. The Pd complexes were formulated as Pd(ligand)Cl₂, with square planar geometries and bidentate Schiff base ligands. The e.s.r. spectra of the Cu^II complexes are discussed.     

Spectroscopic and biological properties of platinum complexes derived from 2-pyridyl Schiff bases

The reactions of a range of aromatic primary amines with pyridine-2-carboxaldehyde were reported, highlighting the effect of the substituents of the amine on the outcomes of the Schiff base reactions. The variant products of the Schiff base reactions were reacted with cis-[PtCl₂(DMSO)₂], generating platinum(II) complexes with PtCl₂(N^N) general formula. The ligands and platinum(II) complexes were identified and characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopic methods. Single crystal XRD offered structural confirmation for three of the organic compounds and two platinum complexes. The spectral, antimicrobial, DNA-binding and molecular docking of the platinum complexes were studied, highlighting the effect of the different functional group in the Schiff base ligands on their properties. In general, introducing the electron-withdrawing group nitro or acetyl in the 2-pyridyl Schiff base ligands, results in a red-shift in the absorption maxima of the platinum complex. In addition, the enhancement in the antimicrobial activities and the increase in the ct-DNA-binding affinity were also observed when the nitro or acetyl functional group is introduced to the Schiff base ligand in the platinum(II) complex.     

含二茂铁和吡啶单元的手性席夫碱配体在钌催化的不对称氢转移反应中的应用

Chiral Schiff base complexes are very efficient for a wide range of reactions, including expoxidation[1], epoxide ring opening[2], Diels-Alder reaction[3], aldol reaction[4], etc. However, there are only few examples of P-N chelate Schiff bases being used as the chiral ligands in the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of ketones. Recently, Gao et al[5] reported a series of P,N,N,P Schiff base ligands that have relatively low enantioselectivity in the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of ketones.

Reactions of L-methionine, L-serine, and L-valine with 5-substituted-2-hydroxybenzene-1,3-dicarbaldehydes gave a series of chiral Schiff base pincer ligands which were reduced to the corresponding diamines. The new Schiff base ligands reacted with copper(II) chloride to form dinuclear copper complexes which were found to be capable of recognizing tyrosine enantiomers in aqueous solution. The structure of the complexes was determined on the basis of their spectral parameters.     

Heterocyclic dithiocarbazate iron chelators: Fe coordination chemistry and biological activity

The iron coordination and biological chemistry of a series of heterocyclic dithiocarbazate Schiff base ligands is reported with regard to their activity as Fe chelators for the treatment of Fe overload and also cancer. The ligands are analogous to tridentate heterocyclic hydrazone and thiosemicarbazone chelators we have studied previously which bear NNO and NNS donor sets. The dithiocarbazate Schiff base ligands in this work also are NNS chelators and form stable low spin ferric and ferrous complexes and both have been isolated. In addition an unusual hydroxylated ligand derivative has been identified via an Fe-induced oxidation reaction. X-ray crystallographic and spectroscopic characterisation of these complexes has been carried out and also the electrochemical properties have been investigated. All Fe complexes exhibit totally reversible Fe(III/II) couples in mixed aqueous solvents at potentials higher than found in analogous thiosemicarbazone Fe complexes. The ability of the dithiocarbazate Schiff base ligands to mobilise Fe from cells and also to prevent Fe uptake from transferrin was examined and all ligands were effective in chelating intracellular Fe relative to known controls such as the clinically important Fe chelator desferrioxamine. The Schiff base ligands derived from 2-pyridinecarbaldehyde were non-toxic to SK-N-MC neuroepithelioma (cancer) cells but those derived from the ketones 2-acetylpyridine and di-2-pyridyl ketone exhibited significant antiproliferative activity.

Recent advances with π-conjugated salen systems

Schiff base ligands have long been successfully employed as ligands in combination with various metals to give catalysts capable of realizing a variety of synthetic transformations. One of the most widely used Schiff base ligands, the "salen" ligand, has been extensively researched. Recently, there has been increased interest in π-conjugated salen systems, known as "salphen" ligands, as a result of the differences in reactivity of the complexes in catalytic applications compared with the salen analogues. Complexes of salphen ligands display interesting photophysical and supramolecular properties which are not always observed with salen systems as a result of their π-conjugation. This tutorial review therefore describes the most significant advances recently made with salphen and related π-conjugated ligand systems.
