Coordination Chemistry and Applications of Phenolic Calixarene–metal Complexes

Abstract

Calixarenes are a class of macrocyclic phenols that range in size from calix[4]arene, containing four linked phenols, to calix[20]arene. This chapter focuses on metallocalixarenes that fall into the category of metal phenolates, that is, metallocalixarenes in which the metal is bound directly to the phenolic moiety. The coordination chemistry of calixarene from 2001–2012 is reviewed, divided by groups in the periodic table; s ‐block, transition, heavy main group ( p ‐block), and rare earth metallocalixarenes. Synthesis, structural chemistry, and applications are discussed.

Heterometallic cobalt(ii) calix[6 and 8]arenes: synthesis, structure and electrochemical activity

“…M.S. (LCMS): 1508 (M–2THF–42MeCN–4Br–21Li–18OH–8Co–2[ 8 ]), 1476 (M–2THF–42MeCN–5Br–19Li–16OH–8Co–2[ 8 ]).…”

Use of Titanium Complexes Bearing Diphenolate or Calix[n]arene Ligands in α-Olefin Polymerization and the ROP of Cyclic Esters

“…One type of chelate ligand that have seen application in a variety of catalytic processes are the diphenolates. This also led to exploration of macrocyclic phenols known as calix[n]arenes (Figure 1, right) given that these macrocycles can be visualized as larger cyclic versions of the aforementioned diphenolates (Figure 1, Type II) [1][2][3]. Such systems offer several advantages, for example the ligands employed are commercially available or can readily be synthesized in multigrams quantities.…”

Synthesizing Zro2 Nanoparticle as a Catalyst Through Thermal Decomposition of Phenol-Zirconium Complexes in Order to Degradation of Harmful Organic Substances Under UV Light

“…Isolation metals by phenols make complexes to be used in many important areas, for instance complexes of phenol with S-block metals are useful for hydrogen storage [7], ion transport channels in biological systems [8], and carboxylation of an activated hydrogen in ketone [9] , in the second group of metals, complex of metals with phenols as catalysts are applied for oxidation thin films made by dip coating [8] or organic chemical vapour deposition (OMCVD) [10]. In group 5 metals, they are used for catalytically active surface species [8], acting as precatalysts in process of polymers and catalysts for cyclohexene or cyclooctene epoxidation with [8]. The application of the 6th group metal are categorized in Polymerization [11], and Conductive materials [8] [12].…”

Group 7 is used for low temperature applications [13] to be capable of selectively catalyzing the epoxidation of cyclic alkenes using and isobutyraldehyde.…”

“…Group 7 is used for low temperature applications [13] to be capable of selectively catalyzing the epoxidation of cyclic alkenes using and isobutyraldehyde. Group 8 is used as magnetism [14]and polymerization catalysis [8]. Complex of phenol with metals in group 9 , 10 ,11 , 12 and 13 are able to be as catalyser [15][16][17][18][19][20][21] .…”
