Synthesis of a new series of Ni(ii), Cu(ii), Co(ii) and Pd(ii) complexes with an ONS donor Schiff base: crystal structure, DFT study and catalytic investigation of palladium and nickel complexes towards deacylative sulfenylation of active methylenes and regioselective 3-sulfenylation of indoles via thiouronium salt formation

Abstract

A series of Ni(ii), Cu(ii), Co(ii), and Pd(ii) complexes have been synthesized.
