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. -
Intramolecular Ene Reactions of Functionalised Nitroso Compounds
INTRAMOLECULAR ENE REACTIONS OF FUNCTIONALISED NITROSO COMPOUNDS A Thesis Presented by Sandra Luengo Arratta In Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Award of the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY OF UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON Christopher Ingold Laboratories Department of Chemistry University College London 20 Gordon Street London WC1H 0AJ July 2010 DECLARATION I Sandra Luengo Arratta, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where work has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. ABSTRACT This thesis concerns the generation of geminally functionalised nitroso compounds and their subsequent use in intramolecular ene reactions of types I and II, in order to generate hydroxylamine derivatives which can evolve to the corresponding nitrones. The product nitrones can then be trapped in the inter- or intramolecular mode by a variety of reactions, including 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions, thereby leading to diversity oriented synthesis. The first section comprises the chemistry of the nitroso group with a brief discussion of the current methods for their generation together with the scope and limitations of these methods for carrying out nitroso ene reactions, with different examples of its potential as a powerful synthetic method to generate target drugs. The second chapter describes the results of the research programme and opens with the development of methods for the generation of functionalised nitroso compounds from different precursors including oximes and nitro compounds, using a range of reactants and conditions. The application of these methods in intramolecular nitroso ene reactions is then discussed. Chapter three presents the conclusions which have been drawn from the work presented in chapter two, and provides suggestions for possible directions of this research in the future. -

Hydrocarbons Thermal Cracking Selectivity Depending on Their Structure and Cracking Parameters
Master in Chemical Engineering Hydrocarbons Thermal Cracking Selectivity Depending on Their Structure and Cracking Parameters Thesis of the Master’s Degree Development Project in Foreign Environment Cláudia Sofia Martins Angeira Erasmus coordinator: Eng. Miguel Madeira Examiner in FEUP: Eng. Fernando Martins Supervisor in ICT: Doc. Ing Petr Zámostný July 2008 Acknowledgements I would like to thank Doc. Ing. Petr Zámostný for the opportunity to hold a master's thesis in this project, the orientation, the support given during the laboratory work and suggestions for improvement through the work. i Hydrocarbons Thermal Cracking Selectivity Depending on Their Structure and Cracking Parameters Abstract This research deals with the study of hydrocarbon thermal cracking with the aim of producing ethylene, one of the most important raw materials in Chemical Industry. The main objective was the study of cracking reactions of hydrocarbons by means of measuring the selectivity of hydrocarbons primary cracking and evaluating the relationship between the structure and the behavior. This project constitutes one part of a bigger project involving the study of more than 30 hydrocarbons with broad structure variability. The work made in this particular project was focused on the study of the double bond position effect in linear unsaturated hydrocarbons. Laboratory experiments were carried out in the Laboratory of Gas and Pyrolysis Chromatography at the Department of Organic Technology, Institute of Chemical Technology, Prague, using for all experiments the same apparatus, Pyrolysis Gas Chromatograph, to increase the reliability and feasibility of results obtained. Linear octenes with different double bond position in hydrocarbon chain were used as model compounds. In order to achieve these goals, the primary cracking reactions were studied by the method of primary selectivities. -

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.
