This work describes a Co3+-based metalloligand containing appended thiazole rings and its reactions with secondary metal ions to produce heterometallic {Co3+-Zn2+} and {Co3+-Cd2+} complexes. Structural studies show that some of the appended thiazole rings from the metalloligand coordinate to secondary metal ions, whereas the remaining ones act as hydrogen-bond acceptors to metal-bound CH3OH or H2O mols. These heterometallic complexes function as reusable heterogeneous catalysts for the ring-opening reactions of epoxides as well as cyanation and Knoevenagel condensation reactions of aldehydes. The catalytic results illustrate that the microenvironment remains intact during the catalysis and potentially enhances the substrate interaction with the Lewis acidic secondary metal ions. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, 2-(Anthracen-9-ylmethylene)malononitrile (cas: 55490-87-4Computed Properties of C18H10N2).
2-(Anthracen-9-ylmethylene)malononitrile (cas: 55490-87-4) belongs to nitriles. Nitrile carbon shifts are in the range of 115–125 ppm whereas in isonitriles the shifts are around 155–165 ppm. Asymmetric bioreduction of nitriles is an attractive route to produce optically active nitriles as current metal-catalyzed hydrogenations tend to have low reactivity.Computed Properties of C18H10N2
