Novel Dinucleating Poly(oxime) Amine Ligands and their Nickel and Zinc Complexes: Oxygen and Hydrolysis Reactivity

DETERS, ELIZABETH ANN

Abstract Details

2007, PhD, University of Cincinnati, Arts and Sciences : Chemistry.
A series of mononuclear poly(oxime) amine nickel(II) complexes has been shown to catalyze the oxidation of various substances. To further this work, a series of novel dinucleating ploy(oxime) amine ligands and their nickel complexes were synthesized. During this synthesis, a novel anion dependence on the nuclearity of the complex was discovered and investigated for two of the ligands. All of the dinuclear complexes were shown to catalyze the oxidation of various substances, including methanol, benzyl alcohol, and benzylamine. In addition to the oxygen reactivity, zinc complexes of the poly(oxime) amine ligands were shown to have hydrolysis reactivity. These complexes successfully catalyzed the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl acetate. Some preliminary kinetic data for the reaction was also obtained.
