Synthesis, characterization and liquid-phase hydroxylation of phenol with hydrogen peroxide over host (nanopores of zeolite-Y)/guest (oxovanadium(IV) complexes of tetraaza macrocyclic ligands) nanocatalyst

Effect of ligand on particle size and morphology of nanostructures synthesized by thermal decomposition of coordination compounds

Thermal decomposition of organometallic and various coordination compounds are known as general method to synthesize a wide range of nanostructures including metals, metal oxides and sulfides. Herein, in order to coordinate metals and prepare suitable precursor - due to the efficient role of precursor on the particle size and morphology of products - appropriate ligands will be introduced.

Group 5 chemistry supported by β-diketiminate ligands

β-Diketiminate (BDI) ligands are widely used supporting ligands in modern organometallic chemistry and are capable of stabilizing various metal complexes in multiple oxidation states and coordination environments.

Synthesis of Oxovanadium(IV) Complexes with Tetraaza Coordinating Ligands

Oxovanadium(IV) complexes of the type [VO(mac)]SO4(where mac = tetraaza macrocyclic ligands derived by condensation of thenil with 1,4-diaminobenzene or 3,4-diaminopyridine and their reaction withβ-diketones) have been prepared using vanadyl ion as kinetic template. The prepared macrocyclic complexes were characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductance, magnetic moments, and infrared, electronic, and electron spin resonance data. From the spectroscopic studies, five-coordinate square-pyramidal geometry for the VO2+complexes have been proposed wherein derived ligands act as tetradentate chelating agents.
