LITERATURE CITED AND CONSULTED........................................................................... 26 - 4 - I l ABSTRACT The reactions between carbon monoxide and the metal enolates o f -d i­ carbonyl compounds have been investigated. The catalysts used were nickel tetracarbonyl and dicobalt octacarbonyl. Hydrogen was used, in many cases, in addition to the carbon monoxide. Reactions were also run with the free /6 -d icarbonyl compounds. No apparent reaction was found to take place between carbon monoxide and these compounds under the conditions which were used. The reaction of O-acetylacetoacetic ester with carbon monoxide and hydrogen in the pre­ sence of dicobalt octacarbonyl, however, led to the synthesis of an alde­ hyde. The identity of this aldehyde has not yet been determined. Experimental details are given on the preparation of formyl fluoride and the synthesis of 2-methyl-l-butanal by the reaction of formyl fluoride with secondary-butylcadmium bromide. The synthesis of other aldehydes by using formyl fluoride and organocadmium compounds is mentioned. II. IN TH :-DTinTiaN The use of carbon monoxide as an addition reagent in organic syntheses has become of great technical importance. The number of types of compounds which may be synthesized by the use of carbon monoxide have been greatly increased within the past few years. The synthesis of methyl alcohol and higher alcohols from carbon mon­ oxide and hydrogen ^ ^ is carried out on a commercial scale. Both lab­ oratory and industrial reactions are knovn for the preparation of aldehydes, aliphatic and substituted aliphatic acids. The commercial production of acetic acid and its higher homologs by E.I. du Pont de Nemours ^ Is accomplished by the following reaction: BP3 +• H2O CH3OH + CO CH5COOH 75 atms., 125-180*0^ A sim ilar reaction between ethylene and carbon monoxide yields propionic acid C52) . By using various starting materials, hydroxy-acid:: , amino-acids ^ and polycar boxylic-acids ' have been produced by du Pont. Gattermami and Koch ^ - have shown that aromatic aldehydes can be prepared by the reaction of aromatic hydrocarbons with carbon monoxide and dry hydrogen chloride in the presence of anhydrous aluminum chloride and a small amount of cuprous chloride. Gutiike^,A)' has reported the synthesis of benzaldehyde by the reaction of benzene and carbon monoxide in the presence of anhydrous aluminum chloride and titanium tetrachloride at high pressures. Both inorganic ^ v'' and organic bases ^ will react with carbon monoxide, under pressure, to yield formates or other addition compounds. Two such reactions are: - 6 - KOH ( a q .) + CO ----- I^O 0Ct---- ^ HCOOK (98>) 20 atm . CH3OH + CO HCOOCH3 200-400 atm ? 7 0-10 0°C . Aldehydes have been synthesized industrially by reactions between carbon monoxide, hydrogen and olefins in the presence of cobalt catalysts and tinder conditions of high pressure ^ (31^ This process is known as the "oxo" process. Adkins and Krsek (Z) (3) have studied laboratory conditions under which certain unsaturated compounds w ill add carbon monoxide and hydrogen in the presence of dicobalt octacarbonyl. These reactions yield, in nearly all cases, a high percentage of a single addition pro­ duct. An illustrative example is given with allyl acetate: Ch2=Chch2 OOcch3 + co + h2 gow-loo^^/^s.i^ Ch3 Cooch2 Ch2 Ch2 Cho 110-125°c! The increasing importance of carbon monoxide as an addition reagent in organic syntheses was one of the reasons for the investigations con­ sidered in this paper. One of the original purposes of this investigation was the synthesis of aldehydes through the reaction of carbon monoxide and hydrogen with -dicarbonyl compounds or their derivatives. Formyl fluoride (Zl) is the only acid halide derivative of formic acid which has been isolated. It has been postulated that the hypo­ thetical formyl chloride is formed as an intermediate in the Gattermann- Koch synthesis of aromatic aldehydes (H ). Gilman and Nelson (13J have shown that organocadmium compounds w ill react with acid chlorides to form ketones. Ihus experiments were carried - 7 - out to determine the possibility of preparing aldehydes through the reaction of formyl fluoride with organocadmium compounds. I I I . THEORETICAL DISCUSSION No work, up to the present time, has been reported involving reactions of carbon monoxide and /S -dicarbonyl confounds or their metal enolates. Most of the work dealing with the reaction of an organic salt of any type with carbon monoxide, is that of sodium ethoxide and carbon monoxide. Stabler

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.

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.

  • The Action of Carbon Monoxide and Hydrogen on Deoxybenzoin Oxime and on 2-Acetonaphthone Oxime
    THE ACTION OF CARBON MONOXIDE AND HYDROGEN ON DEOXYBENZOIN OXIME AND ON 2-ACETONAPHTHONE OXIME by Arthur Ronald Hubsoher A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS POR THE DEGREE OP MASTER OF SCIENCE in the Department of Chemistry We accept this thesis as conforming to the required standard THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA May, 1959 ABSTRACT When deoxybenzoin oxime was reacted with carbon monoxide and hydrogen in the presence of dicobalt ootacarbonyl at elevated temperatures and pressures 5-benzylphthalimidine and 3-phenyl-3,4- dihydroisocarbostyryl were produced. When 2-acetonaphthone oxime was reacted under similar conditions 2-(^-naphthyl)-4-methyl- benzo[h] quinoline, 2-methylbenzoff]phthalimidine and 1- (^-naphthyl)ethylurea were produced. Verification of the structure of 2-(^-naphthyl)-4-methylbenzo[h]- quinoline was attained in part through the hydro• chloride salt, the methiodide salt, the picrate derivative and the 2-(^-naphthyl)-4-formylbenzofh]- quinoline derivative. 2-(^-K.aphthyl )-4-methyl- benzofh] quinoline was also synthesized by reacting 2- acetonaphthone oxime with 2-acetonaphthone at elevated temperatures. The infrared spectra of the above compounds are described.

KALDIS, B.Sc. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies In Partial Fulfillment ofthe Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy McMaster University © Copyright by John H. Kaldis, August 2003 DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (2003) McMaster University (Chemistry) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: Alkyne-Cobalt-Clusters: Syntheses, Structures and Rearrangements of Metal-Stabilized Propargyl Cations and Radicals AUTHOR: John H. Kaldis, B.Sc. (University of Western Ontario) SUPERVISOR: Dr. Michael J. McGlinchey NUMBER OF PAGES: XV, 192 11 Abstract Cobalt-clusters are versatile reagents in organometallic chemistry. Their ability to protect an alkyne allows one to selectively manipulate a ligand without undergoing a competitive reaction from the alkyne. Cobalt-clusters geometrically modify linear alkynes to 136-145° degrees, thereby allowing for some non-traditional alkynyl chemistry to occur. In particular, the focus of this dissertation lies upon the chemistry of cobalt-complexed propargyl alkynols, the ability of cobalt to stabilize neighbouring cations generated from these alcohols, and the chemistry that can be accomplished by altering the steric and electronic effects. We have chosen to study the possibility of inducing migration of various substituents from one terminus of the cobalt-complexed alkyne to the alcoholic site ofthe propargyl group via protonation ofthe desired complex. While examining various silanes, and altering the propargyl alcohol itself, we have considered both steric and electronic effects, thereby determining the idealized conditions for such transfers to occur. Furthermore, in our attempts to successfully apply these migrations to several systems, we have acquired a diverse synthetic knowledge of propargyl cobalt-clusters and their intricate reactivity.

Synthetic methods and reactions* G K SURYA PRAKASH and GEORGE A OLAH* Donald P and Katherine B Loker Hydrocarbon Research Institute, and Department of Chemistry, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, California 90089, USA Abstract. This review deals with the development of a series of reagents and reactions for organic synthesis using simple starting materials. A wide array of carbocationic and onium ion reagents, haiogenating agents, FriedeI-Crafts catalysts, metal-induced oxidation- reductions and silicon reagents were utilized in basic (unit) reactions, which serve as building blocks for general synthetic transformations. Keywords. Carbocations; onium ions; halogenating agents; Friedel-Crafts reactions; oxidizing agents; reducing agents; silicon reagents. Introduction Synthetic chemistry in general is directed either towards the preparation of specific molecules or towards the development of new reactions and reagents as well as improvement of existing methods. Over the years our group has been involved in developing selective reagents and methods for organic synthetic transformations using simple and inexpensive starting materials. The development of basic (unit) reactions are important as they serve as building blocks for all syntheses including those of complex target molecules such as natural products. In this review we give an account of our synthetic studies of recent years. In a short review it is not possible to give sufficient background for such a diverse and broad field or comparison with other existing methods and reactions. The reader should be aware of the large diversity of existing synthetic methods to which we hope to have made some useful contributions.
