Synthesis, structure and magnetic properties of dinuclear cobalt-tetraoxolene complexes with bidentate terminal ligands

TL;DR: In this paper, a large number of valence tautomeric tetraoxolene-bridged dinuclear cobalt complexes with tetradentate ancillary ligands have been reported, but none of these complexes contained a bidentate terminal ligand.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microwave-Enhanced Synthesisof Novel Pyridinone-Fused Porphyrins

TL;DR: In this paper, the Ni(II) and Cu(II)-complexes of β-amino-meso-tetraphenylporphyrin with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (DMAD) and diethyl ethoxymethylenemalonate were converted into the corresponding esters of pyridinone-fused porphyrins by using three different cyclization protocols: conventional heating, microwave irradiation, and Eaton's reagent.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exploring (bio)catalytic activities of structurally characterised Cu(ii) and Mn(iii) complexes: histidine recognition and photocatalytic application of Cu(ii) complex and derived CuO nano-cubes.

TL;DR: Two polymeric complexes of Cu(ii) (3) and Mn(iii) (4) of the ligand L (2-(((2-(phenylamino)ethyl)imino)methyl)phenol) have been explored for catecholase-like activity, fluorescence recognition of histidine and catalytic activity towards coupling of aryl iodides with benzamide, leading to N-arylbenzamides.
Journal ArticleDOI

The first exploration of coordination chemistry using a methyl substituted o-vanillin based ligand: an example starting with Dy4/Zn2Dy2 systems displaying slow relaxation of magnetization

TL;DR: Two butterfly-shaped Dy4 and Zn2Dy2 complexes displaying slow relaxation of magnetization have been synthesized from a new methyl substituted o-vanillin based ligand, enlarging the scope for finding better SMMs as mentioned in this paper .
Journal ArticleDOI

Monomeric and dimeric cadmium(II) complexes of S-alkyl/aryl dithiocarbazate as single-source precursors for cadmium sulfide nanoparticles: An experimental, theoretical interpretation in the stability of precursor and visible light dye degradation study

TL;DR: In this paper, the reaction of S-alkyl/aryl dithiocarbazate functionalized with 2-acetyl pyridine ligands and cadmium chloride in ethanol leads to the formation of a mono nuclear Cadmium(II) complex, [Cd(L1)2] (SP1), (HL1 is S-methyl-2-(1-(pyridine-2-yl)ethylidene)hydrazine-1-carbodithioate) and a dinuclear dichloro bridged complex,
