  • The Influence of Electronegativity on Linear and Triangular Three-Centre Bonds

Ramsden Lennard-Jones Laboratories, School of Chemical and Physical Sciences, Keele University, Keele, Staffordshire ST5 5BG, United Kingdom Email: [email protected] Received 03-24-2020 Accepted 04-19-2020 Published on line 04-30-2020 Abstract Electronegativity differences between bonding atoms have major effects on the strengths of chemical bonds but they affect two-centre and three-centre bonds in different ways and with different consequences. The effect on two-centre bonds was recognised almost 100 years ago but the influence of electronegativity difference on three-centre bonding has received less attention. Molecular orbital models of three-centre bonding are discussed and their application to the understanding of the properties of three-centre bonded species illustrated. -2.5 X -3.0 + Y Y Ea -3.5 -4.0 -4.5 X Binding Energy Binding + -5.0 Y Y -5.5 -6.0 -4 -2 0 2 4 h (b units) Keywords: Three-centre bonding, electronegativity, hypervalent, nonclassical carbocations, 2-norbornyl cation, xenon difluoride DOI: https://doi.org/10.24820/ark.5550190.p011.203 Page 12 ©AUTHOR(S) Arkivoc 2020, iv, 12-24 Ramsden, C.

  • Bun)Mo(Pme3)(Η -C2H4) (6) Through Etmgbr Reduction of (Arn)( Bun)Mocl2(DME) in the Presence of Pme3
    Synthesis, Catalysis and Stoichiometric Reactivity of Mo Imido Complexes Nicolas A. McLeod BSc. in Chemistry Chemistry Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies In the partial fulfillment of the requirements For the MSc. degree in chemistry Chemistry Department Faculty of Mathematics and Science Brock University St. Catharines, Ontario © Nicolas A. McLeod, 2014 Abstract The current thesis describes the syntheses, catalytic reactivity and mechanistic investigations of novel Mo(IV) and Mo(VI) imido systems. Attempts at preparing mixed bis(imido) Mo(IV) complexes of the type (RN)(R′N)Mo(PMe3)n (n = 2 or 3) derived from the t mono(imido) complexes (RN)Mo(PMe3)3(X)2 (R = Bu (1) or Ar (2); X = Cl2 or HCl, Ar=2,6- i Pr2C6H3) are also described. The addition of lithiated silylamides to 1 or 2 results in the 2 unexpected formation of the C-H activated cyclometallated complexes (RN)Mo(PMe3)2(η - t CH2PMe2)(X) (R = Ar, X = H (3); R = Bu, X = Cl (4)). Complexes 3 and 4 were used in the activation of R′E-H bonds (E = Si, B, C, O, P; R′ = alkyl or aryl), which typically give products of addition across the M-C bond of the type (RN)Mo(PMe3)3(ER′)(X) (4). In the case of 2,6- dimethylphenol, subsequent heating of 4 (R = Ar, R′ = 2,6-Me2C6H3, E = O) to 50 °C results in 2 C-H activation to give the cyclometallated complex (ArN)Mo(PMe3)3(κ -O,C-OPh(Me)CH2) (5). An alternative approach was developed in synthesizing the mixed imido complex t 2 t (ArN)( BuN)Mo(PMe3)(η -C2H4) (6) through EtMgBr reduction of (ArN)( BuN)MoCl2(DME) in the presence of PMe3.

  • A New Method for the Production of Protonated Hydrogen 29 June 2021
    A new method for the production of protonated hydrogen 29 June 2021 + cosmos. This ionized molecule, H 3 (also known as the trihydrogen ion) is made up of three protons and two electrons, and takes the form of an equilateral triangle. Owing to its highly reactive nature, protonated hydrogen promotes the formation of more complex hydrocarbons. It is therefore regarded as an important catalyst for the synthesis of organic, carbon-based molecules that form the basis of life as we know it. + Up until now, H 3 has only been synthesized on Earth from preformed organic compounds or in highly energized hydrogen plasmas.

    Physics SERIES IN ASTRONOMY AND ASTROPHYSICS LONGSTAFF SERIES IN ASTRONOMY AND ASTROPHYSICS SERIES EDITORS: M BIRKINSHAW, J SILK, AND G FULLER ASTROBIOLOGY ASTROBIOLOGY ASTROBIOLOGY: An Introduction Astrobiology is a multidisciplinary pursuit that in various guises encompasses astronomy, chemistry, planetary and Earth sciences, and biology. It relies on mathematical, statistical, and computer modeling for theory, and space science, engineering, and computing to implement observational and experimental work. Consequently, when studying astrobiology, a broad scientific canvas is needed. For example, it is now clear that the Earth operates as a system; it is no longer appropriate to think in terms of geology, oceans, atmosphere, and life as being separate. Reflecting this multiscience approach, Astrobiology: An Introduction • Covers topics such as stellar evolution, cosmic chemistry, planet formation, habitable zones, terrestrial biochemistry, and exoplanetary systems An Introduction • Discusses the origin, evolution, distribution, and future of life in the universe in an accessible manner, sparing calculus, curly arrow chemistry, and modeling details • Contains problems and worked examples and includes a solutions manual with qualifying course adoption Astrobiology: An Introduction provides a full introduction to astrobiology suitable for university students at all levels.

    The 29th International Conference on Photochemistry Boulder, Colorado • July 21 – 26, 2019 ABSTRACTS The 29th International Conference on Photochemistry Boulder, Colorado July 21 – 26, 2019 PLENARY SPEAKER ABSTRACTS PLENARY PRESENTATIONS ICP2019 Code: Plenary Presenter: Hiroshi MASUHARA (TWN) Abstract Title: Optical Manipulation in Chemistry Co-Author(s): Abstract: Photochemistry and spectroscopy study various dynamics and mechanism of molecules and materials induced by their interaction with light. Optical force is another interaction between light and matter, which was experimentally confirmed by Lebedev in late 19th century. Utilizing this force Ashkin proposed as “Optical Tweezers” in 1986 and demonstrated high potential in application to bio-science, which was awarded Nobel Prize Physics last year. Optical force was also expected to control molecular motion in solution and eventually chemical reaction. In 1988 we started to explore new molecular phenomena characteristic of optical force by combining optical trapping with fluorescence, absorption, electrochemical, and ablation methods. We have studied on microparticles, microdroplets, nanoparticles, polymers, supramolecules, micelles, amino acids and proteins in solution and reported their unique behavior. The remarkable achievement was performed in 2007 when the trapping laser was focused at solution surface. Various amino acids are crystalized, giving one single crystal at the position where trapping laser is focused and at the time when irradiated. This optical manipulation at solution surface is extended to dielectric and gold nanoparticles and to glass/solution interface. The initially trapped polystyrene nanoparticles at the focus form their periodical structure and scatter/propagate the trapping laser, shifting trapping site outside of the focus and forming a single large circle assembly.
