Received: 3 October 2017; Accepted: 24 October 2017; Published: 25 October 2017 Abstract: A hydrido platinum(II) complex with a dihydrosilyl ligand, [cis-PtH(SiH2Trip)(PPh3)2](2) was prepared by oxidative addition of an overcrowded primary silane, TripSiH3 (1, Trip = 9-triptycyl) 2 with [Pt(η -C2H4)(PPh3)2] in toluene. The ligand-exchange reactions of complex 2 with free phosphine ligands resulted in the formation of a series of (hydrido)(dihydrosilyl) complexes (3–5). Thus, the replacement of two PPh3 ligands in 2 with a bidentate bis(phosphine) ligand such as DPPF [1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene] or DCPE [1,2-bis(dicyclohexylphosphino)ethane] gave the corresponding complexes [PtH(SiH2Trip)(L-L)] (3: L-L = dppf, 4: L-L = dcpe). In contrast, the ligand-exchange reaction of 2 with an excess amount of PMe3 in toluene quantitatively produced [PtH(SiH2Trip)(PMe3)(PPh3)] (5), where the PMe3 ligand is adopting trans to the hydrido ligand. The structures of complexes 2–5 were fully determined on the basis of their NMR and IR spectra, and elemental analyses. Moreover, the low-temperature X-ray crystallography of 2, 3, and 5 revealed that the platinum center has a distorted square planar environment, which is probably due to the steric requirement of the cis-coordinated phosphine ligands and the bulky 9-triptycyl group on the silicon atom. Keywords: platinum; primary silane; hydrido complex; oxidative addition; ligand-exchange reaction; X-ray crystallography 1. Introduction The transition metal catalyzed synthesis of functionalized organosilicon compounds gained substantial momentum during the past few decades [1]. Among these catalytic conversions, the oxidative addition of hydrosilanes with platinum(0) complexes is an efficient method for the generation of the platinum(II) hydride species, which has been proposed as a key intermediate in platinum-catalyzed hydrosilylations [2–6] and bis-silylations [7,8], as well as the dehydrogenative couplings of hydrosilanes [9–13]. While a number of reactions of hydrosilanes with platinum(0) complexes affording mononuclear bis(silyl) [14–18] and silyl-bridged multinuclear complexes [19–29] have been described so far, the isolation of mononuclear hydrido(silyl) complexes has been less well studied due to the high reactivity of a Pt–H bond [30–34]. In particular, the synthesis of hydrido(dihydrosilyl) platinum(II) complexes, which are anticipated as the initial products in the Si–H bond activation reactions of primary silanes with platinum(0) complexes, is quite rare. Indeed, only two publications have previously reported the characterization of hydrido(dihydrosilyl) platinum(II) complexes. In 2000, Tessier et al. reported that the reaction of a primary silane with a bulky m-terphenyl group with [Pt(PPr)3] produced the first example of a stable hydrido(dihydrosilyl) complex [cis-PtH(SiH2Ar)(PPr3)2] (Ar = 2,6-MesC6H3)[35]. Quite recently, Lai et al. also Inorganics 2017, 5, 72; doi:10.3390/inorganics5040072 www.mdpi.com/journal/inorganics Inorganics 2017, 5, 72 2 of 11 Inorganics 2017, 5, 72 2 of 11 t described the synthesis of a bis(phosphine) hydrido(dihydrosilyl) complex [PtH(SiH2Si Bu2Me)(dcpe)] of a bis(phosphine) hydrido(dihydrosilyl) complex [PtH(SiH2SitBu2Me)(dcpe)] (dcpe = 1,2- bis(dicyclohexylphos(dcpe = 1,2-bis(dicyclohexylphosphino)ethane)phino)ethane) containing containinga Si–Si bond a Si–Si [36]. bond Meanwhile, [36]. Meanwhile, we succeeded we succeeded in the in the first isolation of a series of hydrido(dihydrogermyl) platinum(II) complexes [PtH(GeH2Trip)(L)] first isolation of a series of hydrido(dihydrogermyl) platinum(II) complexes [PtH(GeH2Trip)(L)] (Trip =(Trip 9-triptycyl) = 9-triptycyl) using using a bulky a bulky substi substituent,tuent, 9-triptycyl 9-triptycyl group group [37].

Very recently, we also found that or dihydrogermyl ligand, [PdH(EH2Trip)(dcpe)] (E = Si, Ge) [38]. Very recently, we also found that hydride-abstraction reactions of [MH(EH Trip)(dcpe)] (M = Pt, Pd, E = Si, Ge) with B(C F ) led to the hydride-abstraction reactions of [MH(EH22Trip)(dcpe)] (M = Pt, Pd, E = Si, Ge) with B(C66F5)33 led to the formationsformations of of new new cationic cationic dinuclear dinuclear complexes complexes with with bridging bridging hydrogermylene hydrogermylene and and hydrido hydrido ligands, ligands, [{M(dcpe)} (µ-GeHTrip)(µ-H)]+ [39].

Furthermore, recent Galileo, Cassini, and Earth-based observations have better defined the abundance of key atmospheric constituents as a function of altitude and latitude in Jupiter’s troposphere. These new results provide an opportunity to test and improve theoretical models of Jovian atmospheric chemistry. We have therefore developed a photochemical model for Jupi- ter’s troposphere considering the updated experimental and observational constraints.

R. China 1999 M.S. University of Cincinnati, Ohio, 2003 Committee Chair: Dr. Dale W. Schaefer Abstract Although it is known that certain organosilanes can dramatically improve the corrosion resistance when deposited on metals, the origin of this effect and its dependence on film characteristics are not fully understood. In this work, the morphology and structure of the silane films, as well as their response to water exposure, are studied mainly by neutron reflectivity. Hydrothermal conditioning and solvent swelling are used to challenge the films. The silanes studied include bis-[triethoxysilylpropyl]tetrasulfide (bis-sulfur) and bis- [trimethoxysilylpropyl]amine (bis-amino) as well as mixed silane films. Initial studies were done on films spin-coated on silicon wafer substrates from 1% solutions and cured at 80 °C. Here the focus is the effect of the bridging group on the morphology and water-barrier properties of the films. Subsequent work addresses the same systems deposited on aluminum substrates, films cured at 180 °C and films of larger thickness.

General Discussion 1.1 Background 1.1.1 History With the application of phosphine in the manufacturing of semiconductors, the monitoring of workplace phosphine becomes more important than before. Phosphine has been analyzed by directly injecting sampled air onto a GC column. Both NPD1 and FPD2 have been used for detection. Wang et al. used gas sampling bags made of aluminum and polyester.3 The NIOSH method uses sampling tubes containing mercuric cyanide-coated silica gel.

  • Recognition and Management of Pesticide Poisonings: Sixth Edition: 2013: Chapter 17 Fumigants
    CHAPTER 17 HIGHLIGHTS Easily absorbed in lung, gut, skin Fumigants SIGNS & SYMPTOMS Packaging and formulation of fumigants are complex. Those that are gases at room Highly variable among temperature (methyl bromide, ethylene oxide, sulfur dioxide, sulfuryl fluoride) are agents provided in compressed gas cylinders. Liquids are marketed in cans or drums. Solids that sublime, such as naphthalene, must be packaged so as to prevent significant Many are irritants contact with air before they are used. Sodium cyanide is only available in an encap- Carbon disulfide, chloroform, sulated form so that when wild canids attack livestock their bite releases the poison. ethylene dichloride, Mixtures of fumigants are sometimes used. For instance, chloropicrin, which has hydrogen cyanide, methyl a strong odor and irritant effect, is often added as a “warning agent” to other liquid bromide may have serious fumigants. It is important to be aware of the possibility of such mixtures. CNS effects Liquid halocarbons and carbon disulfide evaporate into the air while naphtha- lene sublimes. Paraformaldehyde slowly depolymerizes to formaldehyde. Aluminum Methyl bromide, ethylene phosphide slowly reacts with water vapor in the air to liberate phosphine, an extremely dibromide, ethylene oxide, toxic gas. aluminum phosphide Fumigants have remarkable capacities for diffusion (a property essential to (phosphine gas) can cause their function). Some readily penetrate rubber and neoprene personal protective gear, pulmonary edema as well as human skin. They are rapidly absorbed across the pulmonary membranes, Chloroform, carbon gastrointestinal tract and skin. Special adsorbents are required in respirator canisters tetrachloride, ethylene to protect exposed workers from airborne fumigant gases. Even these may not provide dichloride, ethylene complete protection when air concentrations of fumigants are high.
