Abstract: The preparation, structural characterization, luminescence, and catalytic activity of three palladium(II) complexes bearing imino phenoxide ligands are reported. The X-ray studies revealed that the complexes are mononuclear with palladium centres coordinated in a square-planar coordination environment. Two of the complexes are emissive in solution at room temperature. The catalytic activities towards the ring-opening polymerization of -lactide (-LA) were tested. Polymers with moderate molecular weights and relatively broad dispersity () were obtained. Kinetic studies revealed that the polymerization followed first-order kinetics.

The coupled NO-vibrational peaks [IR ν 1775 s, 1716 vs, 1668 vs cm (THF)] between two adjacent [Fe(NO)] groups implicate the electron delocalization nature of the singly -phenoxide-bridged dinuclear dinitrosyliron complex (DNIC) [Fe(NO)(μ-ON)Fe(NO)] (). Electronic interplay between [Fe(NO)] units and [ON] ligand in DNIC rationalizes that "hard" -phenoxide moiety polarizes iron center(s) of [Fe(NO)] unit(s) to enforce a "constrained" π-conjugation system acting as an electron reservoir to bestow the spin-frustrated {Fe(NO)}-{Fe(NO)}-[ON] electron configuration ( = 1/2). This system plays a crucial role in facilitating the ligand-based redox interconversion, working in harmony to control the storage and redox-triggered transport of the [Fe(NO)] unit, while preserving the {Fe(NO)} core in DNICs {Fe(NO)}-[ON] [K-18-crown-6-ether)][(ON)Fe(NO)] () and {Fe(NO)}-[ON] [(ON)Fe(NO)][PF] ().

The synthesis and characterisation of a bis(iminium)phenoxide diacid cation [4-Bu-CH-2,6-(HCN(H)Dipp)-1-O] ([HL]), is discussed. [HL][BF] (1) and [HL][HN{B(CF)}] (2) were synthesised in high yields protonation of the bis(imino)phenol conjugate base with ethereal HBF or Bochmann's acid ([H(OEt)][HN{B(CF)}]). Both species were fully characterised using NMR and IR spectroscopy as well as X-ray crystallography.

Two Schiff base complexes of copper(ii) and cobalt(iii) having the formulae [CuL] (Cu-Sal) and [CoL] (Co-Sal) (HL = 2-(((2-hydroxyethyl)imino)methyl)phenol) have been synthesized and characterized microanalytically, spectroscopically and in the case of Cu-Sal using single crystal X-ray diffraction technique. The single crystal X-ray analysis reveals a square planar geometry around Cu(ii) satisfied by phenoxide oxygen and imine nitrogen of the L ligand to generate a six membered chelate ring. The solid state structure of Cu-Sal is satisfied by varied intermolecular non-covalent interactions.

The tetradentate mixed imino/amino phenoxide ligand (N-(3,5-di-tert-butylsalicylidene)-N'-(2-hydroxyl-3,5-di-tert-butylbenzyl))-trans-1,2-cyclohexanediamine (salalen) was complexed with Cu, and the resulting Cu complex () was characterized by a number of experimental techniques and theoretical calculations. Two quasi-reversible redox processes for , as observed by cyclic voltammetry, demonstrated the potential stability of oxidized forms, and also the increased electron-donating ability of the salalen ligand in comparison to the salen analogue. The electronic structure of the one-electron oxidized [] was then studied in detail, and Cu K-edge X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS) measurements confirmed a Cu-phenoxyl radical complex in solution.

A simple and effective synthetic route to homo- and heteroleptic rare-earth (Ln = Y, La and Nd) complexes with a tridentate Schiff base anion has been demonstrated using exchange reactions of rare-earth chlorides with in-situ-generated sodium (E)-2-{[(2-methoxyphenyl)imino]methyl}phenoxide in different molar ratios in absolute methanol. Five crystal structures have been determined and studied, namely tris(2-{[(2-methoxyphenyl)imino]methyl}phenolato-κO,N,O)lanthanum, [La(CHNO)], (1), tris(2-{[(2-methoxyphenyl)imino]methyl}phenolato-κO,N,O)neodymium tetrahydrofuran disolvate, [La(CHNO)]·2CHO, (2)·2THF, tris(2-{[(2-methoxyphenyl)imino]methyl}phenolato)-κO,N,O;κO,N,O;κN,O-yttrium, [Y(CHNO)], (3), dichlorido-1κCl,2κCl-μ-methanolato-1:2κO:O-methanol-2κO-(μ-2-{[(2-methoxyphenyl)imino]methyl}phenolato-1κO,N,O:2κO)bis(2-{[(2-methoxyphenyl)imino]methyl}phenolato)-1κO,N,O;2κO,N,O-diyttrium-tetrahydrofuran-methanol (1/1/1), [Y(CHNO)(CHO)Cl(CHO)]·CHO·CHO, (4)·MeOH·THF, and bis(μ-2-{[(2-methoxyphenyl)imino]methyl}phenolato-1κO,N,O:2κO)bis(2-{[(2-methoxyphenyl)imino]methyl}phenolato-2κO,N,O)sodiumyttrium chloroform disolvate, [NaY(CHNO)]·2CHCl, (5)·2CHCl. Structural peculiarities of homoleptic tris(iminophenoxide)s (1)-(3), binuclear tris(iminophenoxide) (4) and homoleptic ate tetrakis(iminophenoxide) (5) are discussed.
