The title compound was prepared as follows. To a solution of 2,4-di-butylphenol (24.77 g, 0.12 mol) in 20 ml of methanol was added 7 ml of formaldehyde(0.08 mol) and 2.0 ml 1,3-propanediamine. The mixture was refluxed for 3 d at 65 oC. In the process white precipitates were produced gradually. After being filtered and washed with methanol for 3 times, white product of C136H218N8O9 was obtained in a yield of 90.7% (based on diamine). Single crystals were grown from ethyl acetate, m.p. = 185 °C, Anal. calcd for C136H218N8O9: C, 77.44; H, 10.42; N, 5.31; Found: C, 77.02; H, 10.55; N, 5.27.

Tertiary Carbon H atoms were constrained to ideal geometry, with C—H = 0.98 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C), All other H atoms were placed in geometrically idealized positions and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with C—H = 0.93 (aromatic and alkenyl) Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C). The dispalcement parameters for the water O atom were very large at full occupancy. When refined, its fractional occupancy converged to close to 0.25 and was then set at this value.
In coordination chemistry, various ligands are used to control the environment of the metal. Especially, the electronic and steric properties of ligands are used to control the reactivity of metal species. Aminobisphenolato ligand is attractive, because its substituents at the phenolate rings as well as the position and nature of the side chain donor are easily tuneable features; thus different electronic and steric properties are available (Wichmann et al. 2012). Such metal complexes have been found to display
for polymerization of cyclic (Hancock et al., 2011) (biodegradable polymers) and polymerization of (Tshuva et al., 2001). They can also catalyse Tischenko reactions (Pang et al., 2008), sulfoxidations (Barroso et al., 2010), olefin epoxidation (Wong et al., 2010), hydrogenation of (Kannan et al., 2008) and Mizorokie-Heck coupling reaction (Mohanty et al., 2008). Generally, aminobisphenolato ligands are prepared by Mannich condensation from formaldehyde, phenol and a primary amine (Manna et al., 2008; Guo et al., 2003). Herein we present a new ligand, in which two substituted are bridge-linked by a tetrahydropyrimidine ring. The molecules form a mirror symmetric structure, as illustrated in Scheme 1.In the title compound, the C—N bond distances are between 1.4580 (14) to 1.4763 (15) Å whereas the bond length of C—O is 1.3763 (15) Å. The bond angles around the nitrogen atoms range from 110.35 (12)o to 112.08 (10)o, which is in agreement with those in similar structure (Guo et al., 2003). Two phenolate groups are linked by a tetrahydropyrimidine ring. The overall geometry is mirror-symmetric (Fig.1). The six-member 1,3-diazacyclohexane ring displays in a chair-configuration. Compound molecules were stabilized by hydrogen bonds including intra-molecular O—H···N interaction and inter-molecular O—H···O interaction (Fig. 2).

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

In coordination chemistry, various ligands are used to control the environment of the metal. Especially, the electronic and steric properties of ligands are used to control the reactivity of metal species. Aminobisphenolato ligand is attractive, because its substituents at the phenolate rings as well as the position and nature of the side chain donor are easily tuneable features; thus different electronic and steric properties are available (Wichmann et al. 2012). Such metal complexes have been found to display catalytic activity for polymerization of cyclic esters (Hancock et al., 2011) (biodegradable polymers) and polymerization of olefins (Tshuva et al., 2001). They can also catalyse Tischenko reactions (Pang et al., 2008), sulfoxidations (Barroso et al., 2010), olefin epoxidation (Wong et al., 2010), hydrogenation of ketones (Kannan et al., 2008) and Mizorokie-Heck coupling reaction (Mohanty et al., 2008). Generally, aminobisphenolato ligands are prepared by Mannich condensation from formaldehyde, phenol and a primary amine (Manna et al., 2008; Guo et al., 2003). Herein we present a new ligand, in which two substituted phenols are bridge-linked by a tetrahydropyrimidine ring. The molecules form a mirror symmetric structure, as illustrated in Scheme 1.
In the title compound, the C—N bond distances are between 1.4580 (14) to 1.4763 (15) Å whereas the bond length of C—O is 1.3763 (15) Å. The bond angles around the nitrogen atoms range from 110.35 (12)o to 112.08 (10)o, which is in agreement with those in similar structure (Guo et al., 2003). Two phenolate groups are linked by a tetrahydropyrimidine ring. The overall geometry is mirror-symmetric (Fig.1). The six-member 1,3-diazacyclohexane ring displays in a chair-configuration. Compound molecules were stabilized by hydrogen bonds including intra-molecular O—H···N interaction and inter-molecular O—H···O interaction (Fig. 2).
