Synthesis, crystallographic characterization and catecholase activity of a monocopper(II) and a dimanganese(III) complex with an anionic Schiff base ligand
摘要:
The mononuclear [Cu-II(HL)(2)] (1) and dinuclear [Mn-2(III)(mu(1,3)-OAc)(2)L-2] (2) [H2L = N-(2-hydroxypropyl)-3-methoxysalicylaldimine] compounds have been synthesized and characterized using microanalytical, spectroscopic and X-ray crystallographic results. Structural analysis reveals a bidentate chelation behavior of the monoanionic HL ligand, having a distorted square planar coordination environment around copper(II) with a CuN2O2 chromophore. In compound 2, each manganese(III) center has a distorted octahedral geometry, with an MnN2O4 chromophore bridged by two acetate ligands in a mu(1,3) fashion. Variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements of 2 indicate an antiferromagnetic interaction between the two manganese(III) centers. Both 1 and 2 behave as effective catalysts towards the oxidation of 3,5-di-tert-butylcatechol to its corresponding quinone with molecular oxygen in methanolic solution. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

Binuclear Metal Complexes. XXXI. Synthesis and Magnetic Property of Binuclear Manganese(III) Complexes with 3-Salicylideneamino-1-propanol and Its Homologues
Binuclearmanganese(III) complexes with 3-salicylideneamino-1-propanol and its homologues, MnL(ac) and MnLXH2O (L=Schiff base dianion; ac=acetate ion; X−=Cl−, Br−, N3−), were synthesized. It was shown that manganese(III) ions were bridged by the deprotonated alcoholic oxygen of the Schiff base in the equatorial plane and coordinated by bidentate acetate ion or X− and H2O groups in apical positions
