Enhanced catalytic activity and magnetization of encapsulated nickel Schiff-base complexes in zeolite-Y: a correlation with the adopted non-planar geometry

Abstract

Square planar Ni(II)-Schiff base complexes when encapsulated in a supercage of zeolite Y have shown altered optical, magnetic properties and catalytic activities in comparison to their corresponding free states. Different characterization techniques like XRD analysis, SEM-EDX, AAS, FTIR, UV-Visible spectroscopy and magnetic studies as well as detailed theoretical studies altogether show the differences in the properties of complexes in free and encapsulated states. All these studies have suggested that the largest complex deviates by the maximum amount from its free-state properties and a fascinating correlation between the extent of deviation from molecular dimension and modified catalytic activity of encapsulated complexes is observed.
