Vanadium complexes of N-salicylidene-L-histidine immobilized on Al-MCM-41 designated as VO(Sal-His)/Al-MCM-41, were prepared and characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), FT-IR, nitrogen adsorption-desorption and chemical analysis techniques. VO(Sal-His)/Al-MCM-41 was found to catalyze the epoxidation of trans-2-hexen-1-ol, cinnamyl alcohol and geraniol with tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP). The successful catalytic behavior of VO(Sal-His)/Al-MCM-41 with 99% conversion and excellent selectivity toward the corresponding epoxides is described herein.
Synthesis and characterization of [Cu(mb 2 en) 2 ]ClO 4 and [Cu(mb 2 en)(PPh 3 ) 2 ]BPh 4 : crystal structure of [Cu(mb 2 en) 2 ]ClO 4 , Journal of Coordination Chemistry, 61:3, 455-463 To link to this article: http://dx.Synthesis and characterization of [Cu(mb 2 en) 2 ]ClO 4 and [Cu(mb 2 en)(PPh 3 ) 2 ]BPh 4 : crystal structure of [Cu(mb 2 en) 2 ]ClO 4The ligand, N,N 0 -bis-(4-methoxy-benzylidene)-ethane-1,2-diamine (mb 2 en), and its corresponding copper(I) complexes, [Cu(mb 2 en) 2 ]ClO 4 (1), and [Cu(mb 2 en)(PPh 3 ) 2 ]BPh 4 (2), have been synthesized and characterized by CHN analyses, 1 H and 13 C-NMR, IR, and UV-Vis spectroscopies. The crystal and molecular structure of [Cu(mb 2 en) 2 ]ClO 4 (1), were determined by X-ray crystallography from a single-crystal. The coordination polyhedron about copper(I) is best described as a distorted tetrahedron. Quasi-irreversible redox behavior was observed for 1 and 2 (E 1/2 ¼ 0.55 and 0.95 V, respectively).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
