We use a chemical reaction, such as a disproportionation redox reaction, to generate dilute zerovalent metal atoms in a refluxing solution, which intercalate into the layered Bi2Se3 structure. The zerovalent nature of the intercalant allows superstoichiometric intercalation of metal atoms such as Ag, Au, Co, Cu, Fe, In, Ni, and Sn. We foresee the impact of this methodology in establishing novel fundamental physical behaviors and in possible energy applications. 1. INTRODUCTION Ni, and Sn. Some interesting effects that could arise with − 7−10 intercalation are superconductivity, such as in Cu Bi2Se3, Intercalation is the insertion of a guest species into a host 6 lattice. Intercalation into layered materials is essential to battery enhanced conductivity, or possibly opening a surface state gap electrodes, electrochromics, detergents, and solid lubricants and in topological insulator Bi2Se3. This method of zerovalent metal is important in exotic fundamental two-dimensional (2D) intercalation may also be extended to other layered materials.

  • Bond Distances and Bond Orders in Binuclear Metal Complexes of the First Row Transition Metals Titanium Through Zinc
    Metal-Metal (MM) Bond Distances and Bond Orders in Binuclear Metal Complexes of the First Row Transition Metals Titanium Through Zinc Richard H. Duncan Lyngdoh*,a, Henry F. Schaefer III*,b and R. Bruce King*,b a Department of Chemistry, North-Eastern Hill University, Shillong 793022, India B Centre for Computational Quantum Chemistry, University of Georgia, Athens GA 30602 ABSTRACT: This survey of metal-metal (MM) bond distances in binuclear complexes of the first row 3d-block elements reviews experimental and computational research on a wide range of such systems. The metals surveyed are titanium, vanadium, chromium, manganese, iron, cobalt, nickel, copper, and zinc, representing the only comprehensive presentation of such results to date. Factors impacting MM bond lengths that are discussed here include (a) n+ the formal MM bond order, (b) size of the metal ion present in the bimetallic core (M2) , (c) the metal oxidation state, (d) effects of ligand basicity, coordination mode and number, and (e) steric effects of bulky ligands. Correlations between experimental and computational findings are examined wherever possible, often yielding good agreement for MM bond lengths. The formal bond order provides a key basis for assessing experimental and computationally derived MM bond lengths. The effects of change in the metal upon MM bond length ranges in binuclear complexes suggest trends for single, double, triple, and quadruple MM bonds which are related to the available information on metal atomic radii. It emerges that while specific factors for a limited range of complexes are found to have their expected impact in many cases, the assessment of the net effect of these factors is challenging.

  • Iron Pentacarbonyl
    Poison Facts: Low Chemicals: Iron Pentacarbonyl Properties of the Chemical Iron carbonyl (pentacarbonyl iron), C5FeO5, is a yellow, oily liquid. It is pyrophoric in air and burns to Fe2O3 (Iron[III] oxide) and decomposes by light to Fe2(CO)9 and CO. It is practically insoluble in water, readily soluble in most organic solvents (ether, acetone, ethyl acetate) and slightly soluble in alcohol. The vapor is heavier than air and may travel along the ground. Distant ignition is possible, and it may explode on heating. It may also spontaneously ignite in contact with air. Iron pentacarbonyl is a strong reducing agent and reacts violently with oxidants. Uses of the Chemical Iron pentacarbonyl is prepared from iron (and iron compounds) and CO. It is used in the manufacture of powdered iron cores for high-frequency coils used in the radio and television industries. It is also used as an anti-knock agent in motor fuels and as a catalyst in organic reactions. Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism and Excretion (ADME) Iron pentacarbonyl can be absorbed into the body by inhalation of the vapor, through the skin or by ingestion. No other pharmacokinetic data is available. Clinical Effects of Acute Exposure • Ocular exposures: Iron pentacarbonyl is a local irritant and may cause irritation and injury to eyes. • Dermal exposures: The chemical may irritate the skin and mucous membranes. It may be absorbed through the skin. • Inhalation exposures: If inhaled, iron pentacarbonyl is a local irritant to the lungs and gastrointestinal tract. Symptoms of acute exposure to high concentrations resemble those of exposures to nickel carbonyl.

VANCHEESAN Chemistry Department, Indian Institute of Technology, Madras 600 036 Received 20 October 1981; revised and accepted 15 February 1982 Tris(triphenylphospbine)-dicarbonyliron(O)(I) undergoes substitution reactions with trimethylphosphite, pyri- dine, dimethyl sulphoxide and methylisocyanide. Substitution takes place via dissociation of I to a 1 coordinativel1 unsaturated 16 electron complex, which is a highly reactive unstable intermediate. Both steric and electronic factors playa prominent role in deciding the feasibility of the reaction. Steric factor is expressed in terms of e, the cone angle of the ligand, and electronic factor in terms of Al mode of CO stretching frequency in Ni(CO)aL, where L is the ligand for which the electronic factor is expressed in terms of "CO. Ligands with cone angle e, greater than that of triphenyl- phosphine e.g. t-butylphosphine, do not react. In the reaction of I with molecular hydrogen and bromine, oxidative addition takes place.

D. Bhatt / Selected topics in coordination chemistry / 2 MODULE 1: METAL CARBONYLS LECTURE #1 1. INTRODUCTION: Justus von Liebig attempted initial experiments on reaction of carbon monoxide with metals in 1834. However, it was demonstrated later that the compound he claimed to be potassium carbonyl was not a metal carbonyl at all. After the synthesis of [PtCl2(CO)2] and [PtCl2(CO)]2 reported by Schutzenberger (1868) followed by [Ni(CO)4] reported by Mond et al (1890), Hieber prepared numerous compounds containing metal and carbon monoxide. Compounds having at least one bond between carbon and metal are known as organometallic compounds. Metal carbonyls are the transition metal complexes of carbon monoxide containing metal-carbon bond. Lone pair of electrons are available on both carbon and oxygen atoms of carbon monoxide ligand. However, as the carbon atoms donate electrons to the metal, these complexes are named as carbonyls. A variety of such complexes such as mono nuclear, poly nuclear, homoleptic and mixed ligand are known. These compounds are widely studied due to industrial importance, catalytic properties and structural interest. V. D. Bhatt / Selected topics in coordination chemistry / 3 Carbon monoxide is one of the most important π- acceptor ligand. Because of its π- acidity, carbon monoxide can stabilize zero formal oxidation state of metals in carbonyl complexes. 2. SYNTHESIS OF METAL CARBONYLS Following are some of the general methods of preparation of metal carbonyls.

While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)".
