A novel binuclear iron(III)-salicylaldazine complex; synthesis, X-ray structure and catalytic activity in sulfide oxidation

Pentacoordinated isothiocyanate iron(III) complexes supported by asymmetric tetradentate donor and acceptor Schiff base ligands: Spectral, Structural and Hirshfeld Surface Analyses

“…In particular, the design and synthesis of iron complexes with Schiff base ligands play a major role in the coordination chemistry of this earth abundant and biocompatible element. Indeed, inherent potentials of these complexes are their importance as biomimetic functional models for iron-containing enzymes [19,20], in medicinal chemistry [21][22][23], as catalysts [24][25][26], and as molecular materials based on spin crossover behavior [27][28][29][30]. On the other hand, both divalent and trivalent iron complexes of tetradentate Schiff base ligands have been taken under consideration since they exhibit unique coordination chemistry.…”
