Synthesis of cadmium(II) complexes of 2-(2-mercaptophenyl)-imino-phenols by the electrochemical cleavage of a disulphide bond: the crystal structure of {(1,10-phenanthroline) [2-(2-mercaptophenyl)iminophenoxy]}cadmium(II)

Synthesis, catalytic and antibacterial activity of 2-aminophenyldisulphide

“…Research has been directed towards an understanding of the reactions of metal ions with ligands containing disulphide groups [1][2][3]. 2-Aminophenyl disulphide or diimine derivatives have been reported to give mononuclear or binuclear metal complexes and displayed diverse modes of coordination [4][5][6][7][8].…”

The use of sacrificial anodes for the electrochemical synthesis of metallic complexes

“…In this case they are ligands which show both disulfide and phenol groups; its electrolysis with the appropriate anodes yielded the corresponding metal complexes with two donor moieties: thiolato and phenoxy. [298] and [Cd 2 (L96a) 2 (phen) 2 ] [299] have been studied by X-ray diffraction. In both compounds, the cleavage of the disulfide bond and the deprotonation of the phenol group to phenoxy leads to a dianionic terdentate behavior of the ligand.…”

“…This is the situation found in the mononuclear Zn(II) compound. However, in the dinuclear [Cd 2 (L96a) 2 (phen) 2 ] complex [299] the Schiff base exhibits also a dianionic terdentate behavior; in this case the oxygen atoms from the phenoxy groups act as bridges between the two cadmium atoms.…”

Titanium(IV) Complexes of Disulfide-Linked Schiff Bases

“…DTDA has been considered for energy-storage devices, with its oxidation occurring at a readily accessible +0.27 V vs Ag/AgCl, but the large separation between oxidation and reduction events indicated that the kinetics involved are relatively slow and, hence, not suitable for practical storage applications. DTDA-derived Schiff bases have also been used in coordination chemistry, in particular as synthons of the anil forms of the 2-aminothiophenol Schiff bases in complexes of Cu(II), Ni(II), Zn(II), Cd(II), Sn(II), V(III), and Fe(III) . In direct reactions, salicylaldehyde derivatives of DTDA could potentially behave as doubly monobasic bis(O,N,S-tridentates) or bis(O,N-bidentates) and could therefore potentially accommodate two metal centers.…”
