文摘Two new zinc(Ⅱ) complexes, [Zn2L2Ch].2[ZnL(CH3OH)Cl2] 1 and [ZnL2(NO3)2] 2, were synthesized by reacting ZnX2.nH2O (X = Cl^-, NO3^-) and a Schiff base ligand 2-[(4-methylphenylimino)methyl]-6-methoxyphenol (C15HIsNO2, L) which was obtained by the condensation of o-vanillin (2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde) with p-toluidine. Both 1 and 2 were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction technique, elemental analysis, molar conductance, FT-IR, UV-Vis, IH-NMR spectra and thermogravimetrie analysis. The Schiff base ligand and its zinc(Ⅱ) complexes have been tested in vitro to evaluate their antibacterial activity against bacteria, viz., Escherichia Coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus Subtilis. The results show that these complexes have higher activity than the corresponding free Schiff base ligand against the same bacteria.

文摘A series of bis-ligated zinc complexes supported by Schitt base ligands were successfully synthesized and characterized by 1 H, 13C NMR, elemental analysis, and X-ray crystallography. These zinc complexes can be used as catalysts for the polymerization of rac-lactide in solution as well as in molten lactide. The results show that all catalysts exhibited high catalytic activity and obtained moderate heterotactic PLAs with the expected molecular weight. Complex 1 can catalyze the polymerization of rac-lactide under controllable conditions with living and immortal character in toluene solution. In addition, the steric hindrance and electronic effects has a great influence on the catalytic activity and selectivity of catalysts.

文摘A convenient colorimetric approach for visual detection of melamine in raw milk was realized by using gold nanoparticles(AuNPs)stabilized by an unsymmetrical terpyridyl zinc complex with a thymine fragment at one terminal and a quaternary ammonium salt at the other.Even without pre-addition of melamine or relative additives,obvious color change from red to blue was observed by naked eye in the presence of trace amount of melamine,which was attributed to the alternation of aggregation state of AuNPs caused by the selective binding between the thymine fragment and melamine via triple hydrogenbonding interactions.Remarkably,the detection limit for melamine was as low as 2.4 ppb,providing a highly sensitive and efficient approach for the visual detection of melamine.

文摘The self-assembly of clusters in inorganic systems is an interesting subject. The self-assembly of big molecules has been well established in biological systems. In addition, the coordination chemistry of metal-sulfur-nitrogen cluster complexes has been a very active and attracting field for many years as a result of the novelty and versatility of the crystal structures and reactivities of such clusters, as well as their potential applications as the models for the active sites in non-heme proteins. At the same time, there is currently considerable interest in the formation of metal complexes with heterocyclic ligands because of the diverse characteristics of ligands and their consequential wide range of applications.
