Synthesis and Characterization of Mn(II) Complex

Unless otherwise noted, all chemicals and solvents were obtained from commercial vendors at ACS grade or better and were used without further purification. Acetonitrile, methanol, and ether were dried and degassed using a Pure Solv (2010) solvent purification system. Toluene was made anaerobic by either sparging and then drying over activated alumina using a PPT Glass Contour solvent purification system, or dry toluene (99% purity) from Acros Organics was degassed by four freeze-pump-thaw cycles using Schlenk techniques. All dried, degassed solvents were immediately taken into an argon-filled glove box and were stored in tightly-sealed Schlenk glassware until use. CCA was distilled prior to use; however, a 1H-NMR analysis of the material following distillation revealed the persistence of acid impurities (vide infra). Syntheses of L7BQ and [MnII(L7BQ)(OTf)2] were carried out under inert conditions, as described below. Product analysis was performed by running reaction mixtures through a silica plug with excess EtOAc, and 1,2,4,5-tetrachloro-3-nitrobenzene was used as an internal standard for 1H NMR quantification.

Synthesis of Nanocrystalline MgO Powder

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The nanocrystalline powder of MgO was obtained using a methoxide-based preparation route reported previously (52 ). Specifically, a metallic Mg ribbon (Sigma-Aldrich; ≥99.5%, 1.77 g) was reacted with dry methanol (Acros Organics; ≥99.8%, 90 ml) under a N2 atmosphere in an ice bath. After the complete dissolution of metallic Mg, dry toluene (Acros Organics; ≥99.85%, 60 ml) was added to the obtained methoxide solution and the reaction mixture was left under stirring for 1 hour. Subsequently, the obtained solution was slowly hydrolyzed by the dropwise addition of a mixture of deionized water:dry toluene:dry methanol = 2.65 ml:50 ml:150 ml. The obtained product was collected and dried using a rotary evaporator (40°C, 150 mbar, rpm = 100), followed by drying in an oven (T = 110°C, 12 hours). The collected dry Mg(OH)2 powder was calcined in a Nabertherm 1100°C furnace in a flow of synthetic air at 500°C for 6 hours; a heating rate of 1°C min−1 was applied to yield a powder of MgO.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
