Selected AbstractsAmino-phosphanes in RhI -Catalyzed Hydroformylation: New Mechanistic Insights Using D2O as Deuterium-Labeling AgentEUROPEAN JOURNAL OF INORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 1 2006Jacques Andrieu Abstract In previous work, we have demonstrated that the dangling amino group in amino-phosphane ligands increases the rate of Rh-catalyzed styrene hydroformylation as a function of the amino group basicity and of the distance between the P and N functions. We now report additional stereochemical and mechanistic insights resulting from new catalytic experiments performed with Rh-,-P,N catalytic systems in the presence of D2O. In addition to the expected D0 product, the formation of the ,-D1 aldehyde, PhCH(CH2D)CHO was observed in all cases by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, indicating that H/D exchange occurs for the rhodium-hydride complex. Minor amounts of a ,-D2 product, PhCH(CHD2)CHO, were also formed under certain conditions, demonstrating the reversibility of the olefin coordination step. The composition of the aldehyde mixture is slightly affected by the nature of the catalytic precursor or the P,N ligand used. In the specific case of the ,-P,N ligand [,-P,N = (SAr,SC)-Ph2PCH{o -C6H4Cl(Cr(CO)3)}NHPh], in combination with the [RhCl(COD)]2 precatalyst, products PhCD(CH3)CHO (,-D1) and PhCD(CH2D)CHO (,,,-D2) were also produced. This result suggests a reversible deprotonation assisted by an intramolecular H-bonding interaction between the dangling ammonium function and the carbonyl moiety. This isotopic exchange process decreases the asymmetric induction from 14 to 7,% ee when using the enantiopure version of this ligand. Aldehydes bearing a D atom on the formyl group, e.g. PhCH(CH3)CDO, were never observed. The latter observation excludes protonolysis of the rhodium-acyl intermediate as the aldehyde forming step. In addition, it also excludes a bimolecular reaction involving the rhodium-acyl and rhodium-hydride intermediates.(© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Casares Abstract The air-stable complexes trans -[Ni(C6Cl2F3)2L2] (L = SbPh3, 1; AsPh3, 2; AsCyPh2, 3; AsMePh2, 4; PPh3, 5) have been synthesized by arylation of [NiBr2(dme)] (dme = 1,2-dimethoxyethane) in the presence of the corresponding ligand L (for compounds 1,4) or by ligand substitution starting from 1 (for compound 5). The structures of 1, 2, and 5 have been determined by X-ray diffraction and show an almost perfect square-planar geometry in all cases. Their catalytic activity in insertion polymerization of norbornene have been tested showing a strong dependence of the yield and molecular mass of the polymer on the ligand used and the solvent. High yield and high molecular mass values are obtained using complexes with ligands easy to displace from NiII (SbPh3 is the best) and noncoordinating solvents. Complexes 1,3 are suggested as convenient bench-catalysts to have available in the lab. (© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Abdel-Naby Tin, nickel, cobalt, zinc, and copper complexes of cyanoguanidine and urea were synthesized and investigated as thermal stabilizers for rigid poly(vinyl chloride) at 180°C in air. Their stabilizing efficiencies were evaluated by measuring the induction period (the period during which no evolved hydrogen chloride could be detected) and the rate of dehydrochlorination as determined by continuous potentiometric measurements, in addition to the extent of discoloration. The results clearly revealed the greater efficiency of all of the investigated metal complexes as compared to those of well-recognized reference stabilizers. The tin complex always exhibited the highest efficiency irrespective of the type of ligand used. The nickel and cobalt complexes also possessed high stabilizing efficiencies. The order of the stabilizing potency of the various metal complexes was Sn , Co, Ni , Zn, Cu. Combining the ligand itself with dimethyltin- s,s,-bis (isooctyl thioglycolate), as a reference stabilizer containing a tin atom, led to a true synergism. This synergistic effect might be attributed to the formation in situ of a complex between the ligand and the tin atom. J. VINYL ADDIT.

[source] Self-Assembly by Ligand-Exchange ReactionsEUROPEAN JOURNAL OF INORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 16 2005Dillip Kumar Chand Abstract An interesting phenomenon of ligand exchange is observed in the DMSO solution of certain self-assembled molecules generated from cis -protected PdII and organic ligands. Upon heating, assemblies such as [{Pd(en)}x(ligand)y](NO3)2x change to [Pdm(ligand)n](NO3)2m and [Pd(en)2](NO3)2. The change is also possible at room temperature when 0.5 equiv. Pd(en)(NO3)2 is added in excess to the system. The transformation is incomplete when the ligand moiety is monodentate in nature, for example in the case of 4-phenylpyridine. However, multinuclear assemblies containing nonchelating, polydentate ligands used in this study entirely favor the transformation. This process is not possible with some related PtII compounds.

Here, the solution,liquid,solid approach where the nanowire growth is governed by low-melting-point catalyst particles, such as Bi nanocrystals, is presented. In particular, the focus is on the preparation and characterization of CdSe nanowires, a material which serves a prototype structure for many kinds of low dimensional semiconductor systems. To investigate the influence of different reaction parameters on the structural and optical properties of the nanowires, a comprehensive synthetic study is presented, and the results are compared with those reported in literature. How the interplay between different reaction parameters affects the diameter, length, crystal structure, and the optical properties of the resultant nanowires are demonstrated. The structural properties are mainly determined by competing reaction pathways, such as the growth of Bi nanocatalysts, the formation and catalytic growth of nanowires, and the formation and uncatalytic growth of quantum dots. Systematic variation of the reaction parameters (e.g., molecular precursors, concentration and concentration ratios, organic ligands, or reaction time, and temperature) enables control of the nanowire diameter from 6 to 33,nm, while their length can be adjusted between several tens of nanometers and tens of micrometers. The obtained CdSe nanowires exhibit an admixture of wurtzite (W) and zinc blende (ZB) structure, which is investigated by X-ray diffraction. The diameter-dependent band gaps of these nanowires can be varied between 650 and 700,nm while their fluorescence intensities are mainly governed by the Cd/Se precursor ratio and the ligands used. [source] Preparation of linear ,-olefins to high-molecular weight polyethylenes using cationic ,-diimine nickel(II) complexes containing chloro-substituted ligands,JOURNAL OF POLYMER SCIENCE (IN TWO SECTIONS), Issue 6 2006Chun-Lei Song Abstract A series of ,-diimine nickel(II) complexes containing chloro-substituted ligands, [(Ar)NC(C10H6)CN(Ar)]NiBr2 (4a, Ar = 2,3-C6H3Cl2; 4b, Ar = 2,4-C6H3Cl2; 4c, Ar = 2,5-C6H3Cl2; 4d, Ar = 2,6-C6H3Cl2; 4e, Ar = 2,4,6-C6H2Cl3) and [(Ar)NC(C10H6)CN(Ar)]2NiBr2 (5a, Ar = 2,3-C6H3Cl2; 5b, Ar = 2,4-C6H3Cl2; 5c, Ar = 2,5-C6H3Cl2), have been synthesized and investigated as precatalysts for ethylene polymerization. In the presence of modified methylaluminoxane (MMAO) as a cocatalyst, these complexes are highly effective catalysts for the oligomerization or polymerization of ethylene under mild conditions. The catalyst activity and the properties of the products were strongly affected by the aryl-substituents of the ligands used. Depending on the catalyst structure, it is possible to obtain the products ranging from linear ,-olefins to high-molecular weight polyethylenes. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Busacca Abstract Three isomeric o -fluoronaphthaldehydes, 9-fluorophenanthrene, and three previously unreported o -fluorophenanthrene aldehydes were analyzed in detail by multiple NMR techniques to provide unambiguous assignment of structures and resonances. The six aldehydes serve as the key starting materials for novel chiral ligands used in highly enantioselective rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation reactions.
