A general, direct, and high-yield synthesis of bis(salicylaldimine) zinc complexes from the ligands and Et(2)Zn is reported. This synthetic method is particularly valuable, not only because it allows the efficient preparation of salen-type complexes of zinc but also because it can be used to prepare bifunctional pyridine-modified zinc(II) bis(salicylidene) complexes, which are potentially useful compounds for applications in asymmetric catalysis and materials chemistry. The synthesis and complete structural characterization of a new series of pyridine-modified zinc(II) bis(salicylidene) ligands is discussed.
报道了一种从配体和二乙基锌直接高产率合成双（水杨醛亚胺）锌配合物的通用方法。这种合成方法特别有价值，不仅因为它能高效制备锌的席夫碱型配合物，还因为它可用于制备双功能吡啶修饰的锌（II）双（水杨醛）配合物，这些配合物在不对称催化和材料化学应用中可能是有用的化合物。讨论了一系列新型吡啶修饰的锌（II）双（水杨醛）配体的合成及完整的结构表征。
