Abstract
Mononuclear Mn(III) and Fe(III) complexes of diamide ligands formed by the reaction of methyl salicylate with triamines like diethylene triamine (DET) and dipropylene triamine (DPT) have been synthesised. These complexes have been characterised by elemental analysis, spectral, magnetic, FAB mass spe ctral and electrochemical studies. These complexes have been used as cataly sts for the epoxidation of olefines like norbornene, cis-cyclooctene and cy clohexene, using mono-oxygen donor PhIO as the oxidant. The mechanism of ca talytic reaction has been discussed on the basis of spectral and electroche mical studies.
