“…19 Several Cu II Cu IIbased models with catechol oxidase activity have been described. [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32] In the first systematic study, Nishida et al pointed out that dinuclear copper(II) complexes show a high catalytic activity compared to mononuclear complexes and proposed that a determining factor is the presence of two metal centers located in close proximity to facilitate the binding of the two oxygen atoms of the catechol prior to the electron transfer. Our previous studies 8 on the catalytic oxidation of catechol performed with dicopper(II) complexes from HL CH 3 showed that the catecholase activities are drastically dependent on the copper-copper distance which was modified upon pH-induced changes in the coordination sphere of the complex.…”

“…The first apparent result was that the reactivities of the complexes differ significantly. The binuclear complexes have higher activities than the mononuclear complexes. For example, the binuclear complexes [Cu 2 L 1a ](ClO 4 ) 2 , [Cu 2 L 1b ](ClO 4 ) 2 , and [Cu 2 L 1c ](ClO 4 ) 2 have rate-constant values of 1.27 × 10 -2 , 2.65 × 10 -2 , and 4.23 × 10 -2 min -1 , respectively, whereas the mononuclear complexes [CuL 1a ](ClO 4 ), [CuL 1b ](ClO 4 ), and [CuL 1c ](ClO 4 ) have rate-constant values of 4.89 × 10 -3 , 4.96 × 10 -3 , and 5.41 × 10 -3 min -1 , respectively. The oxidation of catechol to o -quinone requires the presence of two metal ions in close proximity; hence, the rate-constant values of binuclear complexes are comparatively high.…”

“…In Table 3, deconvolution of this region is given, where the most intensive band is related to the stretching vibrations of the phenolic O-H bonds. These vibrations are appeared at lower energies than the alcoholic O-H ones.The very intensive bands at 1660-1500 cm -1 region accounts as an important band in the infrared spectra of the Schiffbases [10][11][12][13][43][44][45]. Here, a very intensive band at 1641 cm -1 region of the IR spectrum is attributed to the symmetrical stretching modes of C8=N1 and C16=N2 bonds.…”
