Application

Oxamide can be used:
  • As a precursor for the synthesis of ligands such as bis(benzimidazole) and Schiff base ligands formed by condensation with furfural.
  • Carbon nitride (g-C3N4) nanotubes by self-assembly polymerization with urea.
  • As a bridging ligand for the synthesis of binuclear IrIII complex [Ir22-oxamidato-N,N′,O,O′)(ptpy)4], ptpy = 2-(p-tolyl)pyridinato.

The conformational properties of the oxalamide group and crystal structure of several polyoxalamides have been investigated by computational methods. First, a detailed quantum mechanical study of the conformational preferences of N,N'-dimethyloxalamide is reported. Results, which were obtained at the MP2/6-31G(d)

Four heteronuclear complexes Mn(CuL)2(SCN)2 (1), {[Mn(CuL)2(mu-dca)2].2H2O}n (2), Zn(CuL)2(SCN)2 (3), and [Fe(CuL)(N3)2]2 (4) incorporating macrocyclic oxamide ligands have been synthesized and structurally characterized. L is the dianion of diethyl 5,6,7,8,15,16-hexahydro-6,7-dioxodibenzo[1,4,8,11]-tetraazacyclotetradecine-13,18-dicarboxylate, and dca is the dicyanamide. The structure of 1 or 3
