The synthesized complexes and ligand were characterized by spectroscopic FT-IR, UV-VIS, 1H-NMR and elemental analyses.

The novel complex 1 has been carefully characterized by 1H NMR, elemental analysis, and X-ray diffraction structure analysis. The influences of the coordination modes on the structures and redox properties have been further investigated. Theoretical investigations revealed that the different coordination modes were ascribed to the thermodynamic properties of ligands.展开更多

IR, electronic, 1H- NMR, 31P-NMR of the complexes are discussed. An octahedral geometry has been tentatively proposed for all these complexes. The new complexes have been tested for the catalytic activity in the reaction of oxidation of alcohols in the presence of N-me- thylmorpholine–N-oxide as co-oxidant.

In this work we present the results of investigations on the interaction of the gadolinium ion (Gd3+) with malic acid (C4H6O5, a-hydroxyl dicarboxylic acid), in dilute aqueous solution for pH values between 5.5 and 7.5. Colourless gadolinium complexes of malate ions have no absorption band UV-visible, the indirect photometric detection (IPD) technique was used and studies have identified a major tri-nuclear complex of malate ion (﹣OOC-CH2-CHOH-COO﹣). The formation of this new colourless complex is derived from three Gd(III) ions that react with two malate ions and two hydronium ions (H3O+), giving for this colourless complex, a (3,2,2) composition and apparent stability constant depends on the acidity of the medium, with logK'322 = 18.88 ± 0.05 at pH = 6.30. To complement previous results and to propose a probable structure for this new complex detected in solution, studies of IR spectroscopy have been conducted to identify the chelation sites for both ligands. The results were analysed and show that this organometallic gadolinium complex, contains two different sites, respectively, two lateral tetradentate mono-nuclear sites and a single central bidentate mono-nuclear site. From these results, the reaction of formation, the stability constant and the probable structure of this new colourless organometallic gadolinium complex are proposed.展开更多
