Synthesis, Spectroscopic and Electrochemical Investigations of Two vic-Dioximes and Their Mononuclear Ni（Ⅱ）, Cu（Ⅱ） and Co（Ⅱ） Metal Complexes Containing Morpholine Group

Two vic-dioxime ligands （LxH2） containing morpholine group have been synthesized from 4-[2-（dimethylaminoethyl）] morpholine with anti-phenylchloroglyoxime or anti-monochloroglyoxime in absolute THF at -15 ℃. Reaction of two vic-dioxime ligands with MCl2·nH2O （M： Ni, Cu or Co and n=2 or 6） salts in 1 ： 2 molar ratio afforded metal complexes of type [M（LxH）2] or [M（LxH）2·2H2O]. All of metal complexes are non-electrolytes as shown by their molar conductivities （Am） in DMF （dimethyl formamide） at 10^-3 mol·L^-1. Structures of the ligands and metal complexes have been solved by elemental analyses, FT-IR, UV-Vis, ^1H NMR and ^13C NMR, magnetic susceptibility measurements, molar conductivity measurements. Furthermore, redox properties of the metal complexes were investigated by cyclic voltammetry.     

The orthopalladation dinuclear [Pd(L1)(μ-OAc)]2, [Pd(L2)(μ-OAc)]2 and mononuclear [Pd(L3)2] complexes with [N, C, O] or [N, O] containing ligands: Synthesis, spectral characterization, electrochemistry and catalytic properties

Treatment of the salicylaldimine ligands (L₁H, L₂H, L₃H, L₄H and L₅H) with palladium(II) acetate in absolute ethanol gave the orthopalladation dinuclear [Pd(L₁)(μ-OAc)]₂, [Pd(L₂)(μ-OAc)]₂ and mononuclear [Pd(L₃)₂] with the tetradentate ligands [N, C, O] or [N, O] moiety. The ligands L₁H and L₂H are coordinated through the imine nitrogen and aromatic ortho carbon atoms, whereas the ligand L₃H coordinated through the imine nitrogen and phenolic oxygens atoms. The Pd(II) complexes have a square-planar structure and were found to be effective catalysts for the hydrogenation of both nitrobenzene and cyclohexene. These metal complexes were also tested as catalysts in Suzuki-Miyaura coupling of aryl bromide in the presence of K₂CO₃. The catalytic studies showed that the introduction of different groups on the salicyl ring of the molecules effected the catalytic activity towards hydrogenation of nitrobenzene and cyclohexene in DMF at 25 and 45 °C. The Pd(II) complexes easily prepared from cheap materials could be used as versatile and efficient catalysts for different C-C coupling reactions (Suzuki-Miyaura reactions). The structure of ligands and their complexes was characterized by UV-Vis, FT-IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR, elemental analysis, molar conductivity, as well as by electrochemical techniques.     

A REVIEW ON THERMAL AND RADIATION-INDUCED POLYMERIZATION OF N-TERT-BUTYLACRYLAMIDE AND ITS VARIOUS COMPLEXES IN THE LIQUID AND SOLID STATES

Abstract

The acrylamide family of monomers is a highly versatile group of chemical intermediates. The major use of these monomers is the preparation of polymers and copolymers having a highly polar functional group attached to the backbone.     

Imination of sulfoxides using 3-acetoxyaminoquinazolinone as nitrogen source in the presence of hexamethyldisilazane

The reaction of 3-acetoxyaminoquinazolinone (QNHOAc) with various sulfoxides in the presence of HMDS as an acetic acid scavenger, afforded the corresponding sulfoximides in good yields. Sulfoximidation of phenyl methyl sulfoxide using a Q*NHOAc having a stereogenic centre on its 2-position gave the products in 1.3:1 ratio of diastereomers.
