The preparation of aliphatic, aromatic or functionalized tartramides directly from tartaric acid and amines under microwave activation is described. The inexpensive, solvent free and fast reaction conditions are the important features of the procedure.
Synthesis of new Cu(II), Ni(II) and Co(II) complexes with a bis-amide ligand functionalized with pyridine moieties: Spectral, magnetic and electrochemical studies
Abstract Three new copper(II), nickel(II) and cobalt (II) dinuclear complexes with a bis-amide ligandderivedfrom tartaric acid have been prepared and characterized. For this purpose, the ligand (R,R)-(+)-di-N,N′-methylpyridino-tartramide (dmpt) was synthesized via the classical aminolysis of (R,R)-(+)-dimethyltartrate with pyridylmethylamine. The molecular structures of the complexes Na[Cu2(dmptH−3)(CO3)] · 8H2O
