Bis(ferrocenylimine)palladium(II) and platinum(II) complexes: synthesis, molecular structures and evaluation as antitumor agents
Motswainyana, William M.; Onani, Martin O.; Madiehe, Abram M. (Elsevier, 2012)Compounds (ferrocenyl-2-furylmethyl)imine (L1), (ferrocenyl-2-thiophenemethyl)imine (L2) and (ferrocenyl-2-thiopheneethyl)imine (L3) were synthesized by condensation reactions and obtained in very good yields. Reactions ... -
Dichlorido-[(2-diphenylphosphino-benzylidene)-2-methylphenylen-amine]palladium( II) acetonitrile monosolvate
Motswainyana, William M.; Onani, Martin O.; Jacobs, Jeroen; van Meervelt, Luc (International Union of Crystallography, 2013)The title imino–phosphine compound, [PdCl2(C26H22NP)] - CH3CN, was prepared by reaction of N-[2-(diphenylphosphanyl) benzylidene]-2-methylaniline with dichlorido(cycloocta- 1,5-diene)palladium(II) in dry CH2Cl2. The ... -
Dichlorido-[2-(2,6-diethylphenyl)iminomethylquinoline-N,N’]palladium(II) acetonitrile monosolvate
Motswainyana, William M.; Onani, Martin O.; Jacobs, Jeroen; van Meervelt, Luc (International Union of Crystallography, 2012)The title complex, [PdCl2(C20H20N2)] CH3CN, was synthesized by the reaction of 2-[(2,6-diethylphenyl)iminomethyl]quinoline with dichlorido(cycloocta-1,5-diene)palladium(II) in dry CH2Cl2. The PdII ion is coordinated by ... -
Imino-quinolyl palladium(II) and platinum(II) complexes: synthesis, characterization, molecular structures and cytotoxic effect
Motswainyana, William M.; Onani, Martin O.; Madiehe, Abram M.; Saibu, Morounke; Jacobs, Jeroen; van Meervelt, Luc (Elsevier, 2013)Imino-quinolyl ligands L1-L5 were synthesized by condensation reactions and obtained in good yields. Reactions of the ligands with either PdCl2(cod) or K2[PtCl4] gave the corresponding palladium(II) and platinum(II) complexes ... -
New imino-pyridyl nickel (II) complexes: synthesis, molecular structures and application as Heck coupling catalysts
Motswainyana, William M.; Onani, Martin O.; Ojwach, Stephen O.; Omondi, Bernard (Elsevier, 2012)Reactions of imino-pyridyl ligands, (2-pyridyl-2-thiophenemethyl)imine (L1) and (2-pyridyl-2-thiopheneethyl)imine (L2) with NiBr2(DME) gave the corresponding complexes [Ni(L1)Br2] (1) and [Ni(L2)Br2] (2) in good yields. ... -
New phenylene bridged binuclear bis (imino-quinolyl) palladium(II) complexes: synthesis, characterization and Heck reactions
Motswainyana, William M.; Onani, Martin O. (Elsevier, 2012)Two new phenylene bridged binuclear bis(imino-quinolyl) palladium (II) complexes were prepared from the reaction of the ligand 1,4-bis(imino-quinolyl)benzene, L1 with either Pd(cod)Cl2 or Pd(cod)ClMe. The molecular structure ...
