Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The preparation and characterization of dinuclear [M(II)(dbcat)(idpa)](2) (M[double bond]Zn (1), Cu (3); dbcat[double bond]3,5-di-tert-butylcatecholate; idpa[double bond]3,3'-iminobis(N,N-dimethylpropylamine)) complexes are described. Crystallographic characterization of the complex [Cu(II)(dbcat)(idpa)](2) has shown that the co-ordination geometry around copper(II) ions is distorted square pyramidal (triclinic, P-1, a=10.576(1) A, b=11.927(1) A, c=12.621(1) A, alpha=77.89(1) degrees, beta=88.65(1) degrees, gamma=70.21(1) degrees, V=1462.7(2) A(3), Z=2, R=0.0387). Both 1 and 3 were suitable catalysts for the catalytic oxidation of dbcatH(2) to dtbq (dtbq=3,5-di-tert-butyl-1,2-benzoquinone) with dioxygen at ambient conditions in good yields. However, on the basis of kinetic studies the copper- and zinc-catalyzed reactions showed different mechanisms. In the first case valence tautomerism [Cu(II)(dbcat)(idpa)]<==>[Cu(I)(dbsq)(idpa)] precedes the reaction with O(2), while with the zinc complex metal-bound catecholate reacts directly with O(2) with the formation of free superoxide anion.
