Phosphoesterases hydrolyze the phosphorus oxygen bond of phosphomono-, di-or triesters
and are involved in various important biological processes. Carboxylate and/or hydroxido …

Three new tetranuclear iron (III) and zinc (II) complexes,[Fe4 (cpdp) 2 (phth) 2 (OH) 2]· 8H2O
(1),[Fe4 (cpdp) 2 (terephth) 2 (OH) 2](2), and [Zn4 (Hcpdp) 2 (suc)] Br2· 12H2O (3), have …

It is well known that a metal‐bound hydroxido ligand is an efficient nucleophile around
neutral pH. In a mechanistic sense, the presence and chemical reactivity of the coordinated …

We report the synthesis of a new asymmetric heptadentate ligand based on the 1, 3-
diaminopropan-2-ol backbone. The ligand 3-[[3-(bis-pyridin-2-ylmethyl-amino)-2-hydroxy …

Two phenol-based “end-off” biscompartmental heptadentate ligands were designed by
introduction of substituents with different electronic and steric properties to the chelating …

In the present work, density functional theory (DFT) calculations at the B3LYP/6-31+ G (d)
and including dispersion effects were used to investigate the hydrolysis of paraoxon, using a …
