Phenols metal complexes

Schiff-base phenolate metal complexes (Fig. 9) have been shown to inhibit both HB3 CQ-susceptible and FCR3 CQ-resistant parasites and correlate in a free metal-independent manner with their ability to inhibit hemozoin formation in vitro [97]. 

A variety of phenoxyl radical metal complexes have been generated in situ by oxidation of the precursor phenol metal complex. Characterization of the resulting radical metal complexes has been mainly by EPR... 

In mordant dyes, phenols, naphthols, and enolizable carbonyl compounds, such as pyrazolones, are generally the couplers. As a rule, 2 1 metal complexes are formed ia the afterchroming process. A typical example of a mordant dye is Eriochrome Black T (18b) which is made from the important dyestuff iatermediate nitro-l,2,4-acid, 4-amiQO-3-hydroxy-7-nitro-l-naphthalenesulfonic acid [6259-63-8]. Eriochrome Red B [3618-63-1] (49) (Cl Mordant Red 7 Cl 18760) (1, 2,4-acid — l-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone) is another example. The equiUbrium of the two tautomeric forms depends on the nature of the solvent. 

Manufacture of alkylsulfones, important intermediates for metal-complex dyes and for reactive dyes, also depends on O-alkylation. An arylsulphinic acid in an aqueous alkaline medium is treated with an alkylating agent, eg, alkyl haUde or sulfate, by a procedure similar to that used for phenols. In the special case of P-hydroxyethylsulfones (precursors to vinylsulfone reactive dyes) the alkylating agent is ethylene oxide or ethylene chlorohydrin. 

The activation of persulfates by various reductant viz. metals, oxidizable metals, metal complexes, salts of various oxyacid of sulfur, hydroxylamine, hydrazine, thiol, polyhydric phenols, etc. has been reported [36-38]. Bertlett and Colman [39] investigated the effect of methanol on the decomposition of persulfates and proposed the following mechanism. 

Attempts have been made to catalyze the arrangement of 3-oxaquadricyclane to oxepins with transition-metal complexes.1 32 1 35 When dimethyl 2,4-dimethyl-3-oxaquadricyclane-l,5-dicarboxylate is treated with bis(benzonitrile)dichloroplatinum(II) or dicarbonylrhodium chloride dimer, an oxepin with a substitution pattern different from that following thermolysis is obtained as the main product. Instead of dimethyl 2,7-dimethyloxepin-4,5-dicarboxylate, the product of the thermal isomerization, dimethyl 2,5-dimethyloxepin-3,4-dicarboxylate (12), is formed due to the cleavage of a C O bond. This transition metal catalyzed cleavage accounts also for the formation of a 6-hydroxyfulvene [(cyclopentadienylidene)methanol] derivative (10-15%) and a substituted phenol (2-6%) as minor products.135 The proportion of reaction products is dependent on solvent, catalyst, and temperature. 

Transition-metal complexes such as [Rh(CO)2Cl]2,204 Rh(butadiene)2Cl,205 or Cr(CO)3(NH3)312 have also been used for the deoxygenation of oxepins to give 312,204 205 and benzoxepins to give 4.12,204 Occasionally, substantial amounts of phenolic compounds have been isolated due to the competing NIH shift of the arene oxide.204 1-Benzoxepin and 3-benzoxepin resist oxygen extrusion under these conditions probably due to their inability to form arene oxi-des.133,204... 

Two significant communications indicate the considerable potential of transition metal complexes as multifunctional homogeneous catalysts in the silane field (5, 53). Here the same catalyst activates silanes toward different substrates and it is probable that all proceed via a common metal hydrido intermediate. Both Co2(CO)8 and (Ph3P)3CoHX [X = H2, N2, or (H)Si(OEt)j] catalyze 0-silylation and hydrosilylation the hydrogen on Si may be replaced by R O, R COO, R CONH, or R3SiO [e.g., Eqs. (117)-(120)], and excellent yields of silylated product result. Phenolic groups do... 

The methylxanthines vary in their ability to form certain metal complexes. For example, theophylline will complex with both copper and silver whereas caffeine will not.16 The interpretation of this is that the metal ion forms a pentacyclic complex involving the phenolic 0 at C-6 and N at 7.18... 

The solubility of most metals is much higher when they exist as organometallic complexes.4445 Naturally occurring chemicals that can partially complex with metal compounds and increase the solubility of the metal include aliphatic acids, aromatic acids, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, amines, aromatic hydrocarbons, esters, ethers, and phenols. Several complexation processes, including chelation and hydration, can occur in the deep-well environment. 

Tetra(o-aminophenyl)porphyrin, H-Co-Nl TPP, can for the purpose of electrochemical polymerization be simplistically viewed as four aniline molecules with a common porphyrin substituent, and one expects that their oxidation should form a "poly(aniline)" matrix with embedded porphyrin sites. The pattern of cyclic voltammetric oxidative ECP (1) of this functionalized metal complex is shown in Fig. 2A. The growing current-potential envelope represents accumulation of a polymer film that is electroactive and conducts electrons at the potentials needed to continuously oxidize fresh monomer that diffuses in from the bulk solution. If the film were not fully electroactive at this potential, since the film is a dense membrane barrier that prevents monomer from reaching the electrode, film growth would soon cease and the electrode would become passified. This was the case for the phenolically substituted porphyrin in Fig. 1. 

In preliminary studies various metal salts such as PdCl2 were attached to the ligands and the complexes characterized by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. Typical examples are the palladium complexes (32)—(44) (Scheme 9).66 The catalytic profiles of these and other transition metal complexes prepared by this method still need to be defined. Moreover, solid-phase synthetic versions would be advantageous, and this may well be possible via the (protected) phenol function. 

The method is either not affected by or can allow for interference from phosphate, sulfate, carbonate, bicarbonate, nitrate, coloured metal complexes, ammonia dyes, detergents, phenols, and other ultraviolet-absorbing substances. The method incorporates three features designed to reduce interferences ... 

CL reaction can be catalyzed by enzymes other than HRP (e.g., microperoxidase and catalase) and by other substances [hemoglobin, cytochrome c, Fe(III), and other metal complexes]. The presence of suitable molecules such as phenols (p-iodophenol), naphthols (l-bromo-2-naphthol), or amines (p-anisidine) increases the light production deriving from the HRP-catalyzed oxidation of luminol and produces glow-type kinetics [6, 7], The use of other enzymes, such as glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase [38-41], P-galactosidase [42], and xanthine oxidase [43-46], as CL labels has been reported. 

Metal complexes, dialkyl thiophosphates and dialkyl thiocarbamates of Zn, Ni, Ba, and Ca, in particular, are widely used for the stabilization of lubricants [30-32,34]. At moderate temperatures (350 400 K), these inhibitors are less efficient than phenols, but they are more potent at higher temperatures (430 480 K). The sophisticated mechanism of action of these antioxidants involves their reactions with hydroperoxide. The interaction of hydroperoxide with metal dialkyl thiophosphates induces a cascade of reactions [5,66-69],... 

The first indication that such O-coordinated (phenoxyl)metal complexes are stable and amenable to investigation by spectroscopy was obtained when the electrochemistry of the colorless, diamagnetic complexes [Mm(LBu2)], [Mm(LBuMet)] (M = Ga, Sc) containing three coordinated phenolates in the cis-position relative to each other was investigated in acetonitrile solutions (142). A representative structure of [Scm(LBuMet)] is shown in Fig. 12. 

Simple organic molecules such as small carboxylic acids (oxalate, acetate, malonate, citrate, etc.), amino acids and phenols are all ligands for metals. Such compounds may all occur as degradation products of organic matter in natural waters. The complexes formed are typically charged hydrophilic complexes. The stability of the metal complexes with these ligands is, however, moderate in most cases. Model calculations including such compounds at realistic concentrations indicate that their effects on speciation are relatively small [29],... 

The Cu-complex-catalyzed oxidative polymerization of phenol derivatives has been selected here as a model reaction in which a polymer-metal complex acts as a catalyst. The catalytic cycle is illustrated in Scheme 3, the example used being the oxidative... 

Transition metal complexes encapsulated in the cavities of zeolites and meso-porous materials exhibit enhanced catalytic activity, compared to their neat analogs. " We had earlier found that Cu(II)-acetate exhibited enhanced regiose-lective orf/zo-hydroxylation of phenols using atmospheric oxygen as the oxidant on encapsulation in molecular sieves Y, MCM-22 or VPI-5. Rao et al. had also found a similar enhancement for encapsulation in Al-MCM-48.
