Dichloro(4,10-dimethyl-1,4,7,10-tetraazabicyclo[5.5.2]tetradecane)chromium(III) chloride, Dichloro(4,10-dibenzyl-1,4,7,10-tetraazabicyclo[5.5.2]tetradecane) chromium(III) chloride, and Dichloro(4,11-dimethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazabicyclo[6.6.2] hexadecane)chromium)(III) chloride have been prepared by the reaction of anhydrous chromium(III) chloride with the appropriate cross-bridged tetraazamacrocycle. Aquation of these complexes proved difficult, but Chlorohydroxo(4,11-dimethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazabicyclo[6.6.2]hexadecane)chromium)(III) chloride was synthesized directly from chromium(II) chloride complexation followed by exposure or the reaction to air in the presence of water. The four complexes were characterized by X-ray crystal structure determination. All contain the chromium(III) ion in a distorted octahedral geometry and the macrocycle in the cis-V configuration, as dictated by the ethylene cross-bridge. Further characterization of the hydroxo complex reveals a magnetic moment of mu(eff) = 3.95 B.M. and electronic absorbtions in acetonitrile at lambda(max) = 583nm (epsilon = 65.8 L/cm.mol), 431nm (epsilon = 34.8 L/cm.mol) and 369nm (epsilon = 17 L/cm.mol).

Chromium(III) complexes bearing bidentate {NH(CH)PPh: PN, ()-[NH(CHPh)PPh]: P'N} and tridentate [PhP(CH)N(H)(CH)PPh: P-NH-P, ()-(Pr)PCHCHN(H)CH(Ph)CH(Ph)PPh: P-NH-P'] ligands have been synthesized using a mechanochemical approach. The complexes {-[Cr(PN)Cl]Cl (), -[Cr(P'N)Cl]Cl (), -Cr(P-NH-P)Cl (), and -Cr(P-NH-P')Cl ()} were obtained in high yield (95-97%) the grinding of the respective ligands andthe solid Cr(III) ion precursor [CrCl(THF)] with the aid of a pestle and mortar, followed by recrystallization in acetonitrile. The isolated complexes are high spin.

Cobalt(III) and chromium(III) salophen chloride complexes were synthesized and tested for the cycloaddition of carbon dioxide (CO) with epoxides to obtain cyclic carbonates. The , , , and complexes presented high catalytic activity without cocatalysts and are solvent-free at 100 °C, 8 bar, and 9 h. At these conditions, the terminal epoxides (-) were successfully converted into the corresponding cyclic carbonates with a maximum conversion of ∼99%.

The catalytic properties of a series of novel chromium(iii) salophen complexes having different pyridinium chloride units (pyridinium, 2,6-dimethylpyridinium or 4-(dimethylamino)pyridinium ones) have been studied in the reaction of carbon dioxide cycloaddition to phenyl glycidyl ether. The examined complexes were found to be capable of catalyzing cycloaddition under relatively mild reaction conditions without any additional nucleophilic co-catalyst. However, their catalytic activity depended strongly on the structure and number of pyridinium salt units in the ligand molecule.

Seven novel oxalate-based [CuCr] compounds: [Cu(terpy)Cl][Cr(CO)]·9HO (1; terpy = 2,2':6',2''-terpyridine), {[CrCu(HO)(terpy)(CO)]·10HO} (2), [CrCu(HO)(terpy)(CO)]·12HO (3), [Cu(HO)(terpy)][CrCu(HO)(terpy)(CO)]·9HO (4), [Cu(HO)(terpy)(NO)][CrCu(HO)(terpy)(CO)]·6HO (5), [CrCu(terpy)(CO)(NO)]·1.5HO·CHOH (6) and [CrCu(HO)(terpy)(CO)][CrCu(terpy)(CO)]·9HO·CHOH (7) were obtained from the reaction of an aqueous solution of the building block [Cr(CO)] and a methanol solution containing Cu ions and terpyridine ligand by the layering technique. Interestingly, changing only the anion of the starting salt of copper(II), NO instead of Cl, resulted in an unexpected modification in the bridge type, namely oxalate (compounds 2-7) chloride (compound 1).
