Addi­ tion of iron pentacarbonyl to a 1-butanol solution of sodium borohydride at room tempe rature results in a quantitative conversion of the iron carbonyl complex to the corresponding mononuclear formyl complex . Upon heating the initially formed formyl spec ies decomposes to form the tetracarbonylhydridoferrate (O) anion. This hydride is be­ lieved to undergo reaction with the phosphine ligand to yield the isolated trans-substituted iron complex .

All complexes have been found to be sensitive to oxy9en if in solution, with the rate of decomposition depending on the kind of ligand . However, if they are dry and under vacuum no apparent decomposition takes place . All synthesized complexes have been characterized by IR spec­ troscopy, 31P NMR , and by their melting points . The value of the presented synthesis is based on its high selectivity, extremely short reaction time , good to very good yields , and its simplicity. 1v "PROOF : Evidence having a shade more of plausi­ bility than of unlikelihood ."

Synthetic Routes to Bromo-Terminated Phosphonate Films and Alkynyl Pyridine Compounds for Click Coupling Poornima Rachel Sunder Thesis submitted to the faculty of University of Mary Washington in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation with Honors in Chemistry (2018) ABSTRACT Click reactions are a highly versatile class of reactions that produce a diverse range of products. Copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) click reactions require an azide and a terminal alkyne and produce a coupled product that is “clicked” through a triazole ring that can have a variety of substituents. In this work, bromo-terminated phosphonate films on copper oxide surfaces were explored as the platform for click coupling, as the terminal azide needed for the reaction can be generated through an in situ SN2 reaction with a terminal bromo group. The reactions were characterized using model reactions in solution before being conducted on modified copper oxide surfaces.

  • Living Radical Polymerization of Methyl Methacrylate with a Rhodium(III) Complex--Organic Halide System in Dimethyl Sulfoxide
    Polymer Journal, Vol. 38, No. 6, pp. 516–522 (2006) Living Radical Polymerization of Methyl Methacrylate with a Rhodium(III) Complex–Organic Halide System in Dimethyl Sulfoxide y Noriyuki KAMEDA College of Science and Technology, Nihon University, Narashinodai, Funabashi 274-8501, Japan (Received November 24, 2005; Accepted January 19, 2006; Published May 17, 2006) ABSTRACT: The polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) with the rhodium(III) complex dihydrido(1,3- diphenyltriazenido)bis(triphenylphosphine)rhodium(III) [RhH2(Ph2N3)(PPh3)2] as a catalyst and an organic halide (CCl4, BrCCl3, or CBr4) as an initiator in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) was studied. For the CCl4 initiator system, a kinetic study of MMA polymerization indicated that polymerization follows first-order kinetics with respect to the monomer and that the number-average molecular weight (Mn) of the polymers produced increases in direct proportion to the monomer conversion. Monomer-addition experiments showed that after addition of further MMA, the Mn of the polymers continues to increase in direct proportion to the monomer conversion. These results confirmed that the poly- merization of MMA in the CCl4-initiated system proceeds in a living radical manner. In contrast, the systems involving the bromo compounds BrCCl3 or CBr4 did not show such a living radical nature. For all these initiator systems, the polymers produced had broad molecular-weight distributions. The catalytic activities are discussed in relation to the reaction product between RhH2(Ph2N3)(PPh3)2 and DMSO.

  • Synthesis of Polyesters by the Reaction of Dicarboxylic Acids with Alkyl Dihalides Using the DBU Method
    Polymer Journal, Vol. 22, No. 12, pp 1043-1050 (1990) Synthesis of Polyesters by the Reaction of Dicarboxylic Acids with Alkyl Dihalides Using the DBU Method Tadatomi NISHIKUBO* and Kazuhiro OZAKI Department of Applied Chemistry, Faculty of Engineering, Kanagawa University, Rokkakubashi, Kanagawa-ku, Yokohama 221, Japan (Received July 6, 1990) ABSTRACT: Some polyesters with moderate viscosity were synthesized by reactions of dicarboxylic acids with alkyl dihalides using 1,8-diazabicyclo-[5.4.0]-7-undecene (DBU) in aprotic polar solvents such as dimethylformamide (DMF) and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) under relatively mild conditions. The viscosity and yield of the resulting polymer increased with increasing monomer concentration. Although polymers with relatively high viscosity were obtained when the reaction with p-xylylene dichloride was carried out at 70°C in DMSO, the viscosity of the resulting polymers decreased with increasing reaction temperature when the reaction with m-xylylene dibromide was carried out in DMSO. KEY WORDS Polyester Synthesis/ Dicarboxylic Acids/ Alkyl Dihalides / DBU Method / Mild Reaction Condition / Although poly(ethylene terephthalate) is favorable method for the synthesis of polyes­ synthesized industrially by transesterification ters because the preparation and purification between dimethyl terephthalate and ethylene of the activated. dicarboxylic acids is un­ glycol at relatively high temperatures using necessary. certain catalysts, many polyesters are usually Some polyesters have also been prepared8 prepared by the polycondensation of dicarbox­ by reactions between alkali metal salts of ylic-acid chlorides with difunctional alcohols dicarboxylic-acids and aliphatic dibromides or phenols. These reactions are carried out using phase transfer catalysis (PTC)s, which is under relatively mild conditions; however, the a very convenient method for chemical activated dicarboxylic-acid chlorides must be modification, especially esterification9 or ether­ prepared and purified before the reaction.

  • Transition Metal Hydrides That Mediate Catalytic Hydrogen Atom Transfers
    Transition Metal Hydrides that Mediate Catalytic Hydrogen Atom Transfers Deven P. Estes Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Deven P. Estes All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT Transition Metal Hydrides that Mediate Catalytic Hydrogen Atom Transfers Deven P. Estes Radical cyclizations are important reactions in organic chemistry. However, they are seldom used industrially due to their reliance on neurotoxic trialkyltin hydride. Many substitutes for tin hydrides have been developed but none have provided a general solution to the problem. Transition metal hydrides with weak M–H bonds can generate carbon centered radicals by hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) to olefins. This metal to olefin hydrogen atom transfer (MOHAT) reaction has been postulated as the initial step in many hydrogenation and hydroformylation reactions. The Norton group has shown MOHAT can mediate radical cyclizations of α,ω dienes to form five and six membered rings. The reaction can be done catalytically if 1) the product metalloradical reacts with hydrogen gas to reform the hydride and 2) the hydride can perform MOHAT reactions. The Norton group has shown that both CpCr(CO)3H and Co(dmgBF2)2(H2O)2 can catalyze radical cyclizations. However, both have significant draw backs. In an effort to improve the catalytic efficiency of these reactions we have studied several potential catalyst candidates to test their viability as radical cyclization catalysts. I investigate the hydride CpFe(CO)2H (FpH). FpH has been shown to transfer hydrogen atoms to dienes and styrenes. I measured the Fe–H bond dissociation free energy (BDFE) to be 63 kcal/mol (much higher than previously thought) and showed that this hydride is not a good candidate for catalytic radical cyclizations.

THESIS PRESENTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF ST. ANDREWS The thesis deals with three main subjects. Firstly, the preparation of a new class of organosulphur-metal carbonyl compounds is described. Secondly, an attempted preparation of sulphines is describee, and finally, a new method of preparing methylthioketones is described. The metal carbonyl complexes were prepared from three types of thiocarbonyl compound. Pyrao- and thiopyran-A—thiones were found to readily form complexes provided that the 3 and 5 positions on the nucleus were unsubstituted, or at the most, mono-substituted. Indolizine thioaldebydes were also found to form stable complexes with molybdenum hexacarbonyl, although in lower yields than with pyran- and thiopyranthiones. Also forming stable complexes, the pyrrolothiazole thioaldehydes. Some difficulty was experienced in assigning a molecular formula to these compondds as two possibilities remained after elementary analysis, namely the-rr-complex M(G0)3L and the er-complex M(G0)5L where M is the metal, and L is the ligand. The obvious solution to the problem, X-Ray crystallography, was ruled out by not being able to obtain large enough crystals of the complex. Similarly mass spectra was unhelpful in assigning a correct formula, as no recognised molecular ion peaks were discernible. However one peak to be recognised was MoCOS indicating that bonding is througn the thiocarbonyl sulphur, or in other words a <r—complex had been formed.

A series of new hexa-coordinated ruthenium(II) carbonyl complexes of the type 1−4 [RuCl(CO)(EPh3)(B)(L )] (4–15) (E = PorAs;B= PPh3,AsPh3 or Py; L = 2 -hydroxychalcone) were synthesized from the reaction of [RuHCl(CO)(EPh3)2(B)] (1–3) (E = PorAs;B= PPh3,AsPh3 or Py) with equimolar chalcone in benzene under reflux. The new complexes have been characterized by analytical and spectroscopic (IR, electronic, 1H, 31P{1H}, and 13C NMR) methods. On the basis of data obtained, an octahedral structure has been assigned for all the complexes. The complexes exhibit catalytic activity for the oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols into their corresponding aldehydes and ketones in the presence of N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide (NMO) as co-oxidant and were also found to be efficient transfer hydro- genation catalysts.

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.

  • Phosphine-Catalyzed Additions of Nucleophiles and Electrophiles to Α
    PHOSPHINE-CATALYZED ADDITIONS OF NUCLEOPHILES AND ELECTROPHILES TO α,β–UNSATURATED CARBONYL COMPOUNDS Reported by Michael Scott Bultman November 4, 2004 INTRODUCTION Organophosphorous compounds are becoming increasingly important in organic synthesis. Phosphines serve as precursors to phosphonium ylides in the Wittig reaction,1 and as nucleophilic triggers in the Mitsunobu2 and Staudinger3 reactions. In these processes, the phosphine is stoichiometrically consumed and converted into a phosphine oxide. Phosphines are also commonly used as ligands for transition metal-catalyzed reactions, to modulate reactivity and stereocontrol.4 On the other hand, the use of phosphines as nucleophilic catalysts for organic reactions has only gained attention in the last ten years. First reported by Rauhut and Currier in 1963,5 phosphine catalysis has since been reinvestigated after the phosphine ligands in some transition-metal-catalyzed reactions were found to be better catalysts than the metal/phosphine complexes alone!6 Phosphines are well suited for catalyzing the addition of both nucleophiles and electrophiles to electron deficient alkenes, alkynes, and allenes. Activation of these α,β-unsaturated carbonyl systems with the phosphine enables the formation of new bonds at the α-, β-, and γ-positions. This report will highlight these different modes of addition to α,β-unsaturated carbonyl systems under phosphine catalysis that allow for the formation of a wide array of products from a single class of substrates. GENERAL REACTIVITY OF PHOSPHINES Key characteristics required for successful nucleophilic catalysis lie in the balance of leaving group ability, nucleophilicity, and ease of ylid formation. Increasing leaving group ability can often be + correlated with decreasing basicity.
