Abstract:In the present study, the properties of a new bidentate N,N′-chelating ligand class that bears an electron-excessive 3,3′-bipyrazole core have been investigated. The ligands are easily accessible in a three-step procedure by condensation with diethyl oxalate followed by tandem condensation with hydrazine hydrate and finally by aryl- or alkylation exclusively at the N-1,1′-pyrazole positions to furnish overall eleven new ligands with different electronic properties. After structural analysis of the ligands, the… Show more

“…However, chiral pyrazole ligands derived from camphor coordinated to transition metals and the catalytic applications of the latter have been less explored [4]. Recently, chiral 3,3 -bipyrazole compounds have been proposed as important ligands that exert electronic and steric stronger influence to the metal center [5,6]. These ligands were prepared by condensation reaction between a bis-1.3-diketone previously reported [7,8] and hydrazine hydrate, followed by aryl-or alkylation.…”
The compound 3,3 -bi(1,1 -dinaphthyl-camphopyrazole) 1, C 42 H 42 O 4 , was obtained in good yield and structurally characterized by 1 H and 13 C NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and X-ray diffraction. It consists of a 3,3 -bipyrazole group with each pyrazole ring containing a fused camphor group and a naphthalene ring bonded to the adjacent nitrogen atom in the ring. Both of the trimethyl, 5-membered rings of the fused camphor group form an envelope with the apex carbon atom as the flap in each case. In the crystal, weak -stacking interactions are observed between nearby 6-carbon rings of the two naphthalene rings linking the molecules into extended chains. Weak -ring intermolecular interactions are also observed between naphthalene atoms and pyrazole rings from each of the groups helping to stabilize the crystal packing. No classical hydrogen interactions are formed.

“…In this sense, the development of new chiral ligands and molybdenum complexes is of great interest. In particular, ligand designs with C 1 and C 2 symmetry have appeared that use (+)‐camphor as an inexpensive, readily available, and easily modified building block from the chiral pool [37,38,39,40,41] . We therefore set out to prepare new chiral dioxomolybdenum(VI) complexes bearing (+)‐camphor‐derived bis‐pyrazole ligands [42] with different symmetries and to evaluate their catalytic performance in the epoxidation of cyclohexene and cis ‐cyclooctene with cumyl hydroperoxide or aqueous hydrogen peroxide.…”
Dioxomolybdenum(VI) complexes (1‐6) were prepared in good yields (≥79 %) using enantiopure C2 and C1‐symmetric bidentate N,N‐ligands (L1‐L6) derived from (+)‐camphor. The ligands and complexes were characterized by NMR spectroscopy, IR, and elemental analysis. Single crystal X‐ray diffraction analyses of complexes 3, 4 and 6 confirmed the bidentate coordination modes of ligands L3, L4, and L6 and revealed distorted octahedral coordination geometries around the metal center. Complexes 3 and 6 form conformational isomers depending on the orientation of the substituents of the ligand aryl groups. Preliminary evaluation of the complexes as catalysts for the epoxidation of cyclohexene (81–93 % conversion) and cis‐cyclooctene (66–94 % conversion) with cumyl hydroperoxide and 35 % w/w aqueous hydrogen peroxide (39–73 %) demonstrated their activity for oxygen atom transfer reactions, opening the way for asymmetric epoxidations.
