Physical Description
SALCOMINE is a solid complex between the cobalt(II) ion and the condensation product of salicylaldehyde and ethylenediamine. Such condensation products are called "Schiff's bases." Complexation with cobalt nullifies their basic properties. Used as a catalyst for various oxidation reactions in which it behaves as an oxygen carrier.;
Salen molecules and their metal complexes have been a cornerstone in the field of catalysis and material science for decades. The chemistry of salen ligands, characterized by their tetradentate coordination environment, provides a versatile platform for developing catalysts with various metal centers, thereby influencing their activity, selectivity, and stability.
