Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis, characterization, and application of vanadium-salan complexes in oxygen transfer reactions.

TL;DR: The V-Salen and V-salan complexes show higher activity and normally better selectivity in alkene oxidation and higherActivity and enantioselectivity for sulfoxidation than their parent V- salen complexes, therefore being an advantageous alternative ligand system for oxidation catalysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hydroxyquinoline derived vanadium(IV and V) and copper(II) complexes as potential anti-tuberculosis and anti-tumor agents.

TL;DR: In the non-tumorigenic HEK cells poor selectivity toward cancer cells for most of the complexes was observed, as well as for cisplatin, while almost all tested vanadium complexes were very active against Mtb and theMICs were comparable to, or better than, the MICs of drugs, such as streptomycin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polymer-Bound Oxidovanadium(IV) and Dioxidovanadium(V) Complexes As Catalysts for the Oxidative Desulfurization of Model Fuel Diesel

TL;DR: The (51)V NMR spectra recorded for solutions in methanol confirm that complex 4, on treatment with H(2)O(2), is able to generate peroxo-vanadium(V) complexes, including quite stable protonated peroxO-V(V), and an outline of the mechanism is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Vanadium(IV and V) Complexes of Schiff Bases and Reduced Schiff Bases Derived from the Reaction of Aromatic o-Hydroxyaldehydes and Diamines: Synthesis, Characterisation and Solution Studies

TL;DR: Several sal 2 en-type reduced Schiff bases have been prepared from the reaction of 2 equiv. of salicylaldehyde derivatives with ethylenediamine followed by reduction with NaBH 4 and subsequently characterised by X-ray diffraction as mentioned in this paper.
