Synthesis, coordination chemistry and reactivity of transition metal complexes supported by a chelating benzimidazolylidene carboxylate ligand

Net charge effects in N-heterocyclic carbene–ruthenium complexes with similar oxidation states and coordination geometries

“…Complex 1, 3 and [RuCl 2 (bpy)(dmso) 2 ] were prepared as previously described [6,8]. All other materials and solvents were of reagent quality and used as received.…”

“…(1)] is particularly versatile because it can abstract a halide from as well as transfer its NHC to another transition metal center. We have previously reported that the NHC in [Ag(1)], a carboxylate-functionalized benzimidazolylidene, can function as a bidentate L,X type ligand for Ru [6].…”

“…We recently reported the synthesis of a chelating benzimidazolylidene-carboxylate ligand and its coordination chemistry with silver and ruthenium [6]. The chelating carboxylate side-chain provided an opportunity to investigate the impact of increasing the net charge on a transition metal complex without changing the oxidation state or coordination environment of the metal by methylating at oxygen.…”

Template‐free anion‐controlled synthesis of Pd (II) nano‐aggregates for the antifouling polymerization of CO and ethylene

“…X-ray structure was obtained by Rigaku F-asix Rapid S diffractometer. The procedure for the synthesis of carboxylic acid-functionalized imidazolium salts [9] and their anion exchange was reported. [10] SCHEME 1 Formation of the Pd (II) nano-aggregates and antifouling polymerization 2.2 | Synthesis of carboxylic acid-functionalized imidazolium salts…”

Structural Elucidation of Sulfur Derivatives of Benzimidazoles by Density Functional Calculations, and Vibrational and NMR Spectral Analyses

“…Design and synthesis of BI derivatives have been greatly advanced over the last few decades due to their resemblance with the naturally occurring nucleotide bases, their structural and functional features, and their rich chemical behaviors. They play significant roles in organic and coordination chemistries as a result of their several potential donor centers [1][2][3], in medicinal chemistry as antibacterial, antifungal [4][5][6], antitumor [7][8][9][10], and anthelmintic (antiparasitic for humans, pets, livestock, and plants) [11] agents, in materials' applications as dyes, photographs, and catalytic agents [12][13][14]. Hence, structural investigations on BI derivatives are of great importance to understand their structure-function relationships better.…”
