Synthesis, X-ray studies, and catalytic activity of tridentate Schiff base dioxo-molybdenum(VI)

Presence of π…π and C H…π interactions in the new Schiff base 2-{( E )-[(3- tert -butyl-1-phenyl-1 H -pyrazol-5-yl)imino]methyl}phenol: Experimental and DFT computational studies

“…6,7 This family of compounds have widely been studied because of their interesting physicochemical properties related to their structures, this fact, have made them the object of many theoretical and experimental investigations. [8][9] The most important features of the Schiff bases or their metal complexes it can be counted: their catalytic [10][11][12] and biological activities, [13][14][15] their application as metal ion sensors, 16-18 molecular disruptor [19][20][21][22] and also as anti-cancer agents, [23][24] among others.…”

Reactivity of metal dioxo complexes

“…Oxygen atom transfer to and from sulfur atoms has been reported using a variety of terminal oxygen donors and acceptors and will not be discussed here. 23–45…”

Synthesis, spectroscopic characterization and catalytic activity of cis‐dioxidomolybdenum (VI) complexes with chiral tetradentate Schiff bases

“…[ 11 ] Nevertheless, cis ‐dioxidomolybdenum (VI) complexes with tridentate and tetradentate Schiff bases have been successfully employed as catalysts in very efficient epoxidation of olefins (including styrene and cyclohexene) [ 12–15 ] and oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides. [ 16–18 ] Lately, particular attention has been drawn to monocyclic and bicyclic monoterpenes, such as limonene and pinene, which are abundant natural products, but also inexpensive by‐products, e.g. from the citrus fruit juice industry [ 19 ] and technical forestry resin or wood pulp by‐produced in the manufacture of cellulose.…”
