Catechols are found in nature taking part in a remarkably broad scope of biochemical
processes and functions. Though not exclusively, such versatility may be traced back to …

A series of five-and six-membered-ring Al complexes bearing Schiff bases was synthesized
and their application to the ring-opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone (CL) was studied …

To elucidate the oxidation behavior of the 2, 2′-azobisphenolate (azp) ligand, a series of
homoleptic 1: 2 AlIII complexes of four azp derivatives (L1) with 5, 5′-dichloro-, 5, 5 …

Abstract The tridentate 2‐tert‐butyl‐4‐methoxy‐6‐(quinolin‐8‐ylazo) phenol ligand HL has
been synthesized and structurally characterized. Its redox activity has been investigated by …

A novel ONO-type bis-tridentate ligand L1 was synthesized by a diazocoupling reaction of 3,
