Dioxo- and oxovanadium(V) complexes of biomimetic hydrazone ONO and NNS donor ligands: Synthesis, crystal structure and catalytic reactivity

Three oxo- and dioxo-vanadium(V) complexes of hydrazone ONO donor ligands were synthesized. The catalytic potential of the complexes has been tested for the oxidation of alkene, alkane and aromatic hydrocarbons using H 2O 2 as the terminal oxidant.

Description
Summary:	Three oxo- and dioxo-vanadium(V) complexes of hydrazone ONO donor ligands were synthesized. The catalytic potential of the complexes has been tested for the oxidation of alkene, alkane and aromatic hydrocarbons using H 2O 2 as the terminal oxidant. [Display omitted] ► For the first time, neutral oxo and dioxovanadium(V) complexes of hydrazone ligands were synthesized via proton-transfer complexes. ► The synthesis and structure of oxovanadium(V) and dioxovanadium complexes of the hydrazones derived from acetylacetone/benzoylhydrazide, acetylacetone/isonicotinohydrazide and acetylpyridine/thiosemicarbazide are reported. ► Good to excellent conversions have been obtained for the oxidation of most of the hydrocarbons with H 2O 2 in the presence of these complexes. Oxo- and dioxo-vanadium(V) complexes of hydrazone ONO donor ligands with the formula [V VO(μ 2-OCH 3)(L 1)] 2 ( 1) and [V VO 2(L 2)]·H 2O ( 2) were synthesized by the reaction of [VO(acac) 2] with proton-transfer complexes of benzenetricarboxylic acid/benzoylhydrazide and benzenetricarboxylic acid/isonicotinohydrazide, respectively (H 2L 1 = monocondensation of benzoylhydrazide and acetylacetone, H 2L 2 = monocondensation of isonicotinohydrazide and acetylacetone). Dioxo complex of V(V), [VO 2(L 3)] ( 3), was synthesized by the reaction of equimolar amounts of VO(acac) 2, 2-acetylpyridine and thiosemicarbazide (H 2L 3 = hydrazone Schiff base of acetylpyridine and thiosemicarbazide and Hacac = acetylacetone). They were characterized by FT-IR, UV–Vis and NMR spectroscopic methods. The crystal structures of 1 and 2 were determined by X-ray analyses. The 1H NMR spectrum of the complex 1 in CDCl 3 solution indicated that this dimeric complex is converted appreciably into its respective monomeric form. The catalytic potential of the complexes has been tested for the oxidation of alkene, alkane and aromatic hydrocarbons using H 2O 2 as the terminal oxidant. Good to excellent conversions have been obtained for the oxidation of most of the hydrocarbons.
