2-Furancarboxaldehyde-2-pyridinylhydrazone (FPH) and 5-methyl-2-furancarboxaldehyde-2-pyridinylhydrazone (MFPH) were synthesized and used as tridentate ligands of copper (I) bromide for the atom transfer radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) and styrene. The polymerization of methyl methacrylate achieved high conversion and yielded polymers with a good control of molecular weight and low polydispersity (PDI=1.33). Higher PDI were observed in the polymerization of styrene. Using 1-phenyl ethylbromide (PEBr) and ethyl 2-bromoisobutyrate (EBiB) as model compounds for the polymeric chain ends, the activation rate constants of the new catalytic systems were measured. These results were correlated with the polymerization results and compared with another catalytic system previously reported.

A $\mu-oxo$ diiron(III) complex and two bis( $\mu-alkoxo)$ diiron(III) complexes with biomimetic tripodal ligand containing mixed N/O donor atoms were synthesized using a mononuclear iron(III) complex as starting material. Depending on the amounts and kinds of bases used, we obtained various kinds of diiron (III) complexes. The reaction of $[$Fe^{III}$(Hbbea)Cl_2]Cl$, 1, with an equivalent amount of $KO_2$ or NaOAc produced $[$Fe^{III}$_2O(Hb-bea)_2Cl_2]Cl_2$, 2. An additional equivalent amount of NaOBz or NaOAc converts complex 2 to complex 3 or complex 4 depending on the base used. The addition of two equivalent amounts of NaOBz orNaOAc directly converts complex 1 to $[$Fe^{III}$_2(bbea)_2(OBz)_2]Cl_2$, 3, or $[$Fe^{III}$_2(bbea)_2(OAc)_2]Cl_2$, 4, depending on the base used. Crystal data are as follows: [$Fe^{III}_2O(Hbbea)_2Cl_2]Cl_2$, 2: monoclinic space group $$P2_1/n$$, a = 8.421 (1) $\AA$, b = 18.416 (2) $\AA$, c = 13.736 (1) $\AA$, $\beta$ = 104.870 $(7)^{\circ}$, V = 2058.9 (4) $\AA^3$, Z = 2, R1 = 0.0469 and wR2 = 0.1201 for reflections with I > 2 ${\sigma}$(I).

The podands I-VII, acyclic polyethers, expected high extractability for $Ag^+$ against $Pb^{2+}$ were designed and synthesized with high yields. Using podands I-VII as extractants, the %extraction(%Ex) of $Ag^+$ and $Pb^{2+}$ as picrates were determined in water/chloroform systems. The stability constants(log K) for the complexation of $Ag^+$ with podands I-VII were also determined by potentiometry. %Ex($Ag^+$) were proportional to the numbers of substituted sulfur donor atoms. Podand VI(log K : 7.65) having 3 substituted sulfur and podand VII(log K : 9.15) having 4 substituted sulfur, however, exhibited almost 100% of extractability, respectively. In %Ex($Ag^+/Pb^{2+}$, oxygen-sulfur mixed donor podands(IV-VII) showed the higher values. Otherwise, the values of log K and %Ex($Ag^+$) largely depended on the variation of donor-site of sulfur. From the results of NMR experiments, it seems that it is due to the ${\pi}-{\pi}$ stacking interaction between the aromatic end-groups.
