Abstract
C1-symmetric vanadyl Schiff-base complexes were synthesized by reacting vanadium(IV) acetylacetonate with (S)-3-[(1-(2-hydroxynaphthalen-1-yl)naphthalen-2-ylimino]methyl]-phenanthrene-4-ol and (S)-2-{[1-(2-hydroxynaphthalen-1-yl)naphthalen-2-ylimino]methyl}tetraphene-1-ol. The complexes were characterized by MALDI-TOF-MS, UV–vis, and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy. The catalysts showed moderate activity for the oxidation of thioanisole to methyphenylsulfoxide with hydrogen peroxide, tert-butyl hydroperoxide, and cumene hydroperoxide as the oxidants.
