The Synthesis and Characterization of Various Multidentate and Macrocyclic Complexes of Copper(II) and Oxavanadium(IV)
Abstract
The goal of this research was to synthesize various
multidentate and macrocyclic ligands and to prepare homobinuclear
copper(II) and oxovanadium(IV) complexes of these ligands. In
addition, a heterobinuclear oxovanadium-copper complex as
well as the cobalt and nickel complexes of a multidentate
ligand were also attempted. Due to time constraints, it was
not possible to examine the cobalt and nickel complexes in
great detail. To facilitate the preparation of these complexes
various multidentate and macrocyclic ligands were prepared from
procedures following the work of Robson in Australia and
Okawa and Kida in Japan. Possibly missing pages 17-18.
