SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF A MANGANESE(III) COMPLEX WITH A NEW UNSYMMETRICAL CHELATING LIGAND

摘要

The new unsymmetrical chelating ligand of 4,6-dimethyl-3-(4,4-dimethyl-2-oxazolinyl)-N-(2-hydroxy-1,1-dimethylethyl) salicylamide (H(3)LOx) and the mononuclear manganese(III) complex, [Mn(OAc)(H(2)LOx)(2)] (1), have been synthesized and characterized by X-ray structural analyses, elemental analyses and cyclic voltammograms. The crystal structure analyses have revealed that the H(3)LOx ligand functions as a bidentate chelate with a deprotonated phenolic oxygen atom and a nitrogen atom of an oxazolinyl ring.
