• The ruthenium carbonyl complexes with redox noninnocent NNS donor ligand.
• Cyclic voltammetric study.
• Catalytic activity for the oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes/ketones.
• DFT, NBO and TDDFT calculations.
The ruthenium carbonyl complexes 1 and 2 with redox noninnocent NNS donor ligand, 1-methyl-2-{(o-thiomethyl)phenylazo}imidazole (L) have been synthesized and characterized by various analytical and spectroscopic (IR, UV–Vis and 1H NMR) techniques. The complexes exhibit a quasi-reversible one electron Ru(II)/Ru(III) oxidation couple at 1.11 V for 1 and 0.76 V for 2 along with two successive one electron ligand reductions. Catalytic activity of the compounds has been investigated to the oxidation of PhCH2OH to PhCHO, 2-butanol (C4H9OH) to 2-butanone, 1-phenylethanol (PhC2H4OH) to acetophenone, cyclopentanol (C5H9OH) to cyclopentanone, cyclohexanol to cyclohexanone, cycloheptanol to cycloheptanone and cycloctanol to cycloctanone using N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide (NMO) as oxidant. The catalytic efficiency of 2 is greater than complex 1 and well correlate with the metal oxidation potential. DFT, NBO and TDDFT calculations in DFT/B3LYP/6-31G(d)/lanL2TZ(f) method are employed to interpret the structural and electronic features of the complexes.
The ruthenium carbonyl complexes 1 and 2 with redox noninnocent NNS donor ligand have been synthesized and characterized by various analytical and spectroscopic techniques. Catalytic activity of the compounds has been investigated to the oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols to the corresponding adehyde and ketones respectively using N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide (NMO) as oxidant. The catalytic efficiency of 2 is greater than complex 1 and well correlate with the metal oxidation potential of the complexes. DFT, NBO and TDDFT calculations are employed to interpret the structural and electronic features of the complexes.Figure optionsDownload as PowerPoint slide
