Surface crystallization and phase transitions of the adsorbed film of F(CF<Subscript>2</Subscript>)<Subscript>12</Subscript>(CH<Subscript>2</Subscript>)<Subscript>16</Subscript>H at the surface of liquid tetradecane

The interaction between a long chain alkane, tetradecane (abbreviated H₁₄), molecule and a semi-fluorinated alkane, 1-perfluorododecyl-hexadecane F(CF₂)₁₂(CH₂)₁₆H (abbreviated F₁₂H₁₆), molecule at the air/ H₁₄ solution interface was studied by measuring the surface tension of the H₁₄ solutions of F₁₂H₁₆ as a function of temperature and bulk concentration under atmospheric pressure. Pure liquid H₁₄ freezes without forming a condensed film at its surface. Nevertheless, a very small amount of F₁₂H₁₆ initiates the surface freezing of H₁₄. In contrast to the F₁₂H₁₆-hexadecane (abbreviated H₁₆) system, the condensed monolayer of H₁₄ has a finite solubility of F₁₂H₁₆ in the F₁₂H₁₆-H₁₄ system. By further increasing the bulk concentration of F₁₂H_16, the F₁₂ chains of the F₁₂H₁₆ molecules form the other closely packed condensed state. Hence, as in the case of the H₁₆ system, the H₁₄ system also exhibits a surface hetero-azeotrope behavior in the lower temperature region. Below the surface hetero-azeotropic point, the condensed H₁₄ monolayer containing a small amount of F₁₂H₁₆ is completely replaced by the condensed monolayer of F₁₂H₁₆. At 2 °C, for example, a surface of H₁₄ solution of F₁₂H₁₆ covered with a gaseous film of F₁₂H₁₆ is replaced by a condensed H₁₄ monolayer containing an almost gaseous state of F₁₂H₁₆, and is then completely replaced by the condensed monolayer of F₁₂H₁₆ with increasing bulk concentration. Above the temperature of the triple point for the F₁₂H₁₆ monolayer, the F₁₂H₁₆-H₁₄ system exhibits a gaseous, expanded, and condensed state.     

Structure, stability and dissociation of silanitriles RSiN (R = H2B, H2N, H2P)

Structure, stability, and dissociation of H₂BSiN, H₂NSiN, H₂PSiN and their isomers H₂BNSi, H₂NNSi, H₂PNSi have been studied in detail using ab initio MP2 and CCSD(T) methods. After dissociation of H₂BNSi, H₂NNSi, H₂PNSi and their isomers, the fragmented atoms have been considered to be either in their ground state or in their valence excited state in various dissociation channels. Only allowed dissociations of these molecules are considered. Various dissociation channels of H₂BNSi, H₂NNSi, H₂PNSi and their isomers have been explored and interesting trends are observed for the dissociation of stable isomers H₂BNSi, H₂NNSi, H₂PNSi and less stable isomers H₂BSiN, H₂NSiN, H₂PSiN. The effect of substituents on their structural properties has been discussed. The potential energy surfaces for the RSiN ? RNSi isomerization reactions have been analyzed. The structural properties of these molecules agree well with the theoretical values wherever available.     

Active Sites Decorated Nonpolar Pore-Based MOF for One-step Acquisition of C2H4 and Recovery of C3H6

Herein, a 2-fold interpenetrated metal-organic framework (MOF) Zn-BPZ-TATB with accessible N/O active sites in nonpolar pore surfaces was reported for one-step C₂H₄ purification from C₂H₆ or C₃H₆ mixtures as well as recovery of C₃H₆ from C₂H₆/C₃H₆/C₂H₄ mixtures. The MOF exhibits the favorable C₂H₆ and C₃H₆ uptakes (>100 cm³ g⁻¹ at 298 K under 100 kPa) as well as selective adsorption of C₂H₆ and C₃H₆ over C₂H₄. The C₃H₆- and C₂H₆-selective feature were investigated detailedly by experimental tests as well as sorption kinetic studyies. Molecular modelling revealed the multiple interactions between C₃H₆ or C₂H₆ molecules and methyl groups as well as triazine rings in pores. Zn-BPZ-TATB not only can directly generate 323.4 L kg⁻¹ and 15.4 L kg⁻¹ of high-purity (≥99.9 %) C₂H₄ from C₃H₆/C₂H₄ and C₂H₆/C₂H₄ mixtures, but also provide a large high-purity (≥99.5 %) C₃H₆ recovery capacity of 60.1 L kg⁻¹ from C₃H₆/C₂H₄ mixtures. More importantly, the high-purity C₃H₆ (≥99.5 %) and C₂H₄ (≥99.9 %) with the productivities of 38.2 and 12.7 L kg⁻¹ can be simultaneously obtained from C₂H₆/C₃H₆/C₂H₄ mixtures through a single adsorption/desorption cycle.     

The mechanism of ethylene pyrolysis at small conversions

Kinetic modelling is used in conjunction with measurements of product yields to develop a mechanism for the pyrolysis of ethylene at 896K and ethylene pressures ranging from approximately 3 to 78 kPa. An induction period was observed for all products except H₂, and was followed by a steady rate, which was of second-order for all products except 1,3-C₄H₆, the most abundant product. The mechanism quantitatively accounts for the yields of H₂, CH₄, C₂H₆, C₃H₆, 1-C₄H₈ and 1,3-C₄H₆. The reaction is initiated by disproportionation of C₂H₄ and the product 1,3-C₄H₆ results from decomposition of the C₄H₇ radical, formed by addition of C₂H₃ to C₂H₄. The other organic products that were measured are formed as a result of reactions involving the C₂H₅ radical. The hydrogen is produced by abstraction from C₂H₄ by atomic hydrogen and its rate is controlled by the reaction C₂H₅ → C₂H₄ + H which is nearly equilibrated. The main termination reaction is recombination of C₂H₅. The auto-acceleration which is evident particularly in the yields of H₂, CH₄, C₂ H₆, and C₃H₆ is accounted for by the decomposition of 1-C₄H₈. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons Inc.     

A pseudopotential study of the hydrogen bond in H2O·H2S,H2S·H2S and H2O·H2Se systems

Intermolecular potential energy curves for the hydrogen bonded systems H₂O·H₂S, H₂O·H₂Se and H₂S·H₂S were calculated with nonempirical pseudopotentials using optimized-in-molecules basis sets augmented by polarization functions. The H₂O·H₂O interaction energy curve has been also considered as a test case. The present results for H₂O·H₂S and H₂S·H₂S indicate much weaker intermolecular interactions than those found in previous ab initio calculations. The H₂O·H₂Se interaction was found to be quite similar to H₂O·H₂S.This work was partly supported by the Polish Academy of Sciences within the Project PAN-09, 7.1.1.1On leave from Quantum Chemistry Laboratory, Dept. of Chemistry, University of Warsaw, Pasteura 1, 02-093.

Reactions of metal carbonyl derivatives : XI. Tertiary phosphine,phosphite and stibine and ditertiaryphosphine and arsine derivatives of bis(μ-phenyl- sulphidotricarbonyliron)

The ditertiary phosphines (C₆H₅)₂P(CH₂)_nP(C₆H₅)₂ (n = 1 and 2), cis(C₆H₅)₂PC₂H₂P(C₆H₅)₂ and (C₆H₅)₂PN(C₂H₅)P(C₆H₅₂ and the ditertiary arsines (C₆H₅)₂As(CH₂)_nAs(C₆H₅)2 (_n = 1 and 2) react with [Fe(CO)₃SC₆H₅]₂ to give a wide range of products, the nature of which depends on the reaction conditions and the ligand involved. Examples of the different types of comp isolated include, (i) Fe₂(CO)₅[(C₆H₅)₂PCH₂P(C₆H₅)₂](SC₆H₅)₂, in which the ligand acts as a monodentate, (ii) {[Fe(CO)₂SC₆H₅]₂[(C₆H₅)₂PC₂H₄P(C₆H₅)₂]}₂, in which two [Fe(CO)₂SC₆H₅]₂ moieties are bridged by two diphosphine ligands, (iii) [Fe(CO)₂SC₆H₅]₂[(C₆H₅)₂PN(C₂H₅)P(C₆H₅)₂], in which the ligand bridges the two iron atoms, and (iv) Fe(CO)₃(SC₆H₅)₂Fe(CO)[(C₆H₅)₂PC₂H₂P(C₆H₅)₂], which contains the ligand chelated to a single iron atom. The tertiary phosphines PR₃ (R=C₂H₅ and C₆H₅), phosphites P(OR′)₃(R′ = CH₃, C₂H₅, i-C₃H₇ and C₆H₅) and the stibine Sb(C₆H₅)₃ bring about mono-, bis- or tris-substitution in [Fe(CO)₃SC₆H₅]₂ depending on the reaction conditions and the ligand involved. Whereas in solution [Fe(CO)₂L(SC₆H₅)]₂ [L = PR₃ (R = C₂H₅ and C₆H₅), P(OC₆H₅)₃ and Sb(C₆H₅)₃] exist as a single isomer, [Fe(CO)₂L′(SC₆H₅)]₂ [L′=P(OR′)₃ (R'=CH₃, C₂H₅ and i-C₃H₇)] occur as a mixture of isomers.     

The reactivity of tributyltin oxygen compounds with CCl4: Implications for its use as an extraction/reaction solvent

A variety of tributyltin oxygen compounds,(nC₄H₉)₃SnOX where X = Sn(nC₄H₉)₃, C₂H₅, nC₄H₉, C₈H₁₇, CH₂C₆H₅, COCH₃, have been studied in refluxing CCI₄. A reaction was observed to occur where X = C₂H₅, C₄H₉, C₈H₁₇, CH₂C₆H₅, leading to the formation of (nC₄H₉)₃SnCl, CHCl₃ and an aldehyde. Possible reaction pathways are suggested. These reactions have implications for the use of CCl₄ as an extraction/reaction solvent.     

Dodekahydro‐closo‐dodekaborate der schweren Erdalkalimetalle aus wäßriger Lösung: Ca(H2O)7[B12H12] · H2O,Sr(H2O)8[B12H12] und Ba(H2O)6[B12H12]

Dodecahydro‐ closo ‐dodecaborates of the Heavy Alkaline‐Earth Metals from Aqueous Solution: Ca(H₂O)₇[B₁₂H₁₂] · H₂O, Sr(H₂O)₈[B₁₂H₁₂], and Ba(H₂O)₆[B₁₂H₁₂] The crystalline hydrates of the heavy alkaline earth metal dodecahydro‐closo‐dodecaborates (M[B₁₂H₁₂] · n H₂O, n = 6–8; M = Ca, Sr, Ba) are easily accessible by reaction of an aqueous (H₃O)₂[B₁₂H₁₂] solution with an alkaline earth metal carbonate (MCO₃). By isothermic evaporation of the respective aqueous solution we obtained colourless single crystals which are characterized by X‐ray diffraction at room temperature. The three compounds Ca(H₂O)₇[B₁₂H₁₂] · H₂O (orthorhombic, P2₁2₁2₁; a = 1161.19(7), b = 1229.63(8), c = 1232.24(8) pm; Z = 4), Sr(H₂O)₈[B₁₂H₁₂] (trigonal, R3; a = 1012.71(6), c = 1462.94(9) pm; Z = 3) and Ba(H₂O)₆[B₁₂H₁₂] (orthorhombic, Cmcm; a = 1189.26(7) pm, b = 919.23(5) pm, c = 1403.54(9) pm; Z = 4) are neither formula‐equal nor isostructural. The structure of Sr(H₂O)₈[B₁₂H₁₂] is best described as a NaCl‐type arrangement, Ba(H₂O)₆[B₁₂H₁₂] rather forms a layer‐like and Ca(H₂O)₇[B₁₂H₁₂] · H₂O a channel‐like structure. In first sphere the alkaline earth metal cations Ca²⁺ and Sr²⁺ are coordinated by just seven and eight oxygen atoms from the surrounding water molecules, respectively. A direct coordinative influence of the quasi‐icosahedral [B₁₂H₁₂]^2– cluster anions becomes noticeable only for the Ba²⁺ cations (CN = 12) in Ba(H₂O)₆[B₁₂H₁₂]. The dehydratation of the alkaline earth metal dodecahydro‐closo‐dodecaborate hydrates has been shown to take place in several steps. Thermal treatment leads to the anhydrous compounds Ca[B₁₂H₁₂], Sr[B₁₂H₁₂] and Ba[B₁₂H₁₂] at 224, 164 and 116 °C, respectively.     

The reactivity of cyclohexadienyl(cyclopentadienyl)iron derivatives

Oxidation of exo-substituted (cyclohexadienyl)cyclopentadienyliron derivatives, exo-RC₆H₆FeC₅H₅ (R = C₂H₅, C₆H₅CH₂ or C₅H₅), by (Ph₃C)BF₄ or bromosuccinimide proceeds by either of two routes, exo-R abstraction or endoH abstraction. Mixtures of [C₆H₆FeC₅H₅]⁺ and [RC₆H₅FeC₅H₅]⁺ axe formed in the reactions. The tendency for R-abstraction rises along the series C₅H₅ C₂H₅ < C₆H₅CH₂. When heated, the compounds (arene H) FeC₅H₅ axe transformed to ferrocene.     

Facilitated Transport of C<Subscript>2</Subscript>H<Subscript>4</Subscript> in a SiO<Subscript>2</Subscript>-poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone)-Ag<Superscript>+</Superscript> Inorganic-Organic Hybrid Membrane

Inorganic-organic hybrid membranes containing silica as the structure matrix, poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) as the organic mediating agent and silver ions as olefinic carriers were prepared using sol–gel method and dip-coating process. The structure and permeances of the membranes for N₂, He, C₂H₄, C₂H₆ at different temperatures indicated that defect-free membranes were obtained and the transportation of the C₂H₄ through the membranes followed the dissolution and diffusion mechanism. Ideal separation factors of C₂H₄/C₂H₆ through the membranes were evaluated at the temperature of 298, 373 and 423 K respectively using mixture gas of 50% C₂H₄-50% C₂H₆. The results showed that the ideal separation factors of C₂H₄/C₂H₆ through the membranes were obviously greater than the ratio of PC₂H₄/PC₂H₆ obtained from the single gas measurement due to the hindering effect by the adsorbed C₂H₄. The ideal separation factors of C₂H₄/C₂H₆ increased with temperature and reached 10 at 423 K, which suggested that C₂H₄ and C₂H₆ could be separated at lower humidity compared to the reported organic polymer/silver salt membranes in which humidified gases and higher silver loading were usually used. The transport of C₂H₄ in the inorganic-organic hybrid membrane was proposed to follow the hopping mechanism, that is, olefins moved across the fixed silver sites.     

Über einige Eigenschaften von Zinkphosphiten mit Berücksichtigung ihrer Wasserstoffbrückenbindung

Zinc phosphites ZnPHO₃·2.5 H₂O, Zn₂H₂P₃H₃O₉·H₂O, Zn₃H₄P₅H₅O₁₅·1.5 H₂O, ZnH₂H₂P₂H₂O₆ have been studied at higher temperatures and by X-rays and molecular spectroscopy. Hydrates ZnPHO₃·2.5 H₂O and Zn₂H₂P₃H₃O₉·H₂O, when heated, yield an anhydrous salt. Thermal decomposition of dihydrogen triorthophosphite and tetrahydrogen pentaorthophosphite leads, before oxidation of the anion, to a mixture of zinc phosphite ZnPHO₃ and dihydrogen diorthophosphite ZnH₂P₂H₂O₆ and then after loss of water of constitution dihydrogen diorthophosphite converts to zinc diphosphite ZnP₂H₂O₅. The results of the thermal decomposition study were confirmed by X-ray investigation. Anhydrous zinc dihydrogen triorthophosphite Zn₂H₂P₃H₃O₉ and zinc diphosphite ZnP₂H₂O₅ were hitherto unknown. Infrared spectra confirmed the existence of hydrogen bonding in all the phosphites studied and in the case of zinc phosphite ZnPHO₃·2.5 H₂O exhibited a symmetry decrease of the anion PHO₃ ^2– from the point group C_3v to C_s. In the crystal lattice of ZnPHO₃·2.5 H₂O hydrogen bonding by water molecules participates, with polyorthophosphites hydrogen bonding shares in the production of anions and in the case of their hydrates there is in addition hydrogen bonding by water molecules.

Versatile coordinating behaviour of bis(acylhydrazone) ligands derived from imino- and methyl-iminodiacetic acid diethyl ester. Antimicrobial properties of their trinuclear copper(II) complexes

The coordinating properties of a new bis(pyridylhydrazone) ligand derived from iminodiacetic acid diethyl ester and 2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde (picolinaldehyde) H₃Imdp and of the bis(salicylhydrazone) H₅Imds and H₄MeImds ligands derived, respectively, from iminodiacetic acid diethyl ester and from methyl-iminodiacetic acid diethyl ester and salicylaldehyde were considered, by means of analytical and spectroscopic methods, towards first row transition metal ions. These ligands showed various coordination modes in complexation with Cu(II), Co(II), Mn(II) and Zn(II) ions. In particular, we have synthesized and characterized, by analytical, ¹H NMR and IR techniques, tri-, di- and mononuclear metal complexes of formula Co₃(HImdp)(NO₃)₄·2H₂O, Cu₃(HImdp)(NO₃)₄·C₂H₅OH·H₂O, Cu₃(HImdp)Cl_4, Zn₂(H₃Imdp)(ClO₄)₄·2H₂O, Co₃(HImds)Cl₂·CH₃OH·H₂O, Zn₂(H₃Imds)Cl₂·2H₂O, Co(H₄Imds)NO₃·2H₂O, Mn(H₄Imds)Cl·CH₃OH·H₂O, Cu(H₃Imds)·CH₃OH·H₂O and Cu(H₂MeImds)^.CH₃OH·3H₂O. Antibacterial, antifungal and antiprotozoal properties of H₅Imds and H₃Imdp together with three copper(II) trinuclear species of H₅Imds of formula Cu₃(HImds)(NO₃)₂^.2CH₃OH·2H₂O, Cu₃(HImds)(ClO₄)₂^.EtOH·2H₂O and Cu₃(HImds)SO₄·4H₂O are also discussed. The H₅Imds ligand and their trinuclear copper(II) complexes showed good activities versus Trichomonas vaginalis, Staphylococcus epidermidis and Acanthamoeba castellanii.     

Structure and bonding of MCB5H7 and its sandwiched dimer CB5H6M-MCB5H6 (M = Si, Ge, Sn): Isomer stability and preference for slip distorted structure

We find sandwiched metal dimers CB₅H₆M-MCB₅H₆ (M = Si, Ge, Sn) which are minima in the potential energy surface with a characteristic M-M single bond. The NBO analysis and the M-M distances (Å) (2.3, 2.44 and 2.81 for M = Si, Ge, Sn) indicate substantial M-M bonding. Formal generation of CB₅H₆M-MCB₅H₆ has been studied theoretically. Consecutive substitution of two boron atoms in B₇H⁻²₇ by M (Si, Ge, Sn) and carbon, respectively followed by dehydrogenation may lead to our desired CB₅H₆M-MCB₅H₆. We find that the slip distorted geometry is preferred for MCB₅H₇ and its dehydrogenated dimer CB₅H₆M-MCB₅H₆. The slip-distortion of M-M bond in CB₅H₆M-MCB₅H₆ is more than the slip distortion of M-H bond in MCB₅H₇. Molecular orbital analysis has been done to understand the slip distortion. Larger M-M bending (CB₅H₆M-MCB₅H₆) in comparison with M-H bending (MCB₅H₇) is suspected to be encouraged by stabilization of one of the M-M π bonding MO’s. Preference of M to occupy the apex of pentagonal skeleton of MCB₅H₇ over its icosahedral analogue MCB₁₀H₁₁ has been observed.     

Thermodynamic Properties of the n-Alkanes C19H40 to C26H54 and Their Binary Phase Diagrams

The shapes of the C₂₂H₄₆-C₂₄H₅₀ and C₂₃H₄₈-C₂₄H₅₀ binary phase diagrams were analyzed. In the C₂₂H₄₆-C₂₄H₅₀ binary system the increased stability of the binary compounds with increasing temperature can be explained by the much larger heat capacity and entropy of the binary compounds compared to that of the components C₂₂H₄₆ and C₂₄H₅₀. In the C₂₃H₄₈-C₂₄H₅₀ system this effect is much less pronounced. The measured enthalpy data of n-alkanes C₁₉H₄₀ to C₂₄H₅₀ and of the binary system C₂₂H₄₆-C₂₄H₅₀ were analyzed to obtain the ‘excess’ heat capacity per atom of carbon {[C _p/(Rm)]-3} (Rm being the number of carbon atoms). The ‘excess’ heat capacity per carbon atom is the value of the heat capacity above the Debye high temperature value of 3R. At low temperatures (below 280 K) one is in the Debye temperature θ_D region. At higher temperatures the large ‘excess’ heat capacity of the solids explains the movements in the carbon chains. In the liquid the excess heat capacity is small and corresponds numerically to the anharmonic vibrations in low melting metals. In contrast to metals, where the difference in heat capacity between liquid and solid below the melting point is positive C _p(L-s)>0, in the alkanes studied it is strongly negative C _p(L-s)?0. This explains the shape of the binary phase diagrams C₂₂H₄₆-C₂₄H₅₀, C₂₄H₅₀-C₂₆H₅₄, C₂₂H₄₆-C₂₃H₄₈ and C₂₃H₄₈-C₂₄H₅₀.     

Tuning Pore Polarization to Boost Ethane/Ethylene Separation Performance in Hydrogen-Bonded Organic Frameworks

Hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks (HOFs) show great potential in energy-saving C₂H₆/C₂H₄ separation, but there are few examples of one-step acquisition of C₂H₄ from C₂H₆/C₂H₄ because it is still difficult to achieve the reverse-order adsorption of C₂H₆ and C₂H₄. In this work, we boost the C₂H₆/C₂H₄ separation performance in two graphene-sheet-like HOFs by tuning pore polarization. Upon heating, an in situ solid phase transformation can be observed from HOF-NBDA(DMA) (DMA=dimethylamine cation) to HOF-NBDA , accompanied with transformation of the electronegative skeleton into neutral one. As a result, the pore surface of HOF-NBDA has become nonpolar, which is beneficial to selectively adsorbing C₂H₆. The difference in the capacities for C₂H₆ and C₂H₄ is 23.4 cm³ g⁻¹ for HOF-NBDA , and the C₂H₆/C₂H₄ uptake ratio is 136 %, which are much higher than those for HOF-NBDA(DMA) (5.0 cm³ g⁻¹ and 108 % respectively). Practical breakthrough experiments demonstrate HOF-NBDA could produce polymer-grade C₂H₄ from C₂H₆/C₂H₄ (1/99, v/v) mixture with a high productivity of 29.2 L kg⁻¹ at 298 K, which is about five times as high as HOF-NBDA(DMA) (5.4 L kg⁻¹). In addition, in situ breakthrough experiments and theoretical calculations indicate the pore surface of HOF-NBDA is beneficial to preferentially capture C₂H₆ and thus boosts selective separation of C₂H₆/C₂H₄.     

Gasphasen-Reaktionen. 92. Thermische HCl-Abspaltung aus Alkyldichlorphosphanen (H3C/H)3C?PCl2 zu Phosphaalkenen (H3C/H)2CPCl und Phosphaalkinen (H3C/H)C≡P

Gasphase Reactions. 92 Thermal Elimination of HCl from Alkyldichlorophosphanes (H₃C/H)₃C? PCl₂ to Phosphaalkenes (H₃C/H)₂C?PCl and Phosphaalkines (H₃C/H)C≡P The alkyldichlorophosphanes H₃C? PCl₂, ClH₂? PCl₂, (H₃C)H₂C? PCl₂ and (H₃C)₂HC? PCl₂ split off HCl on heating in a gasflow under reduced pressure. PE spectroscopic gas analysis proves that under these conditions the short-lived phosphaalkenes H₂C?PCl, (H₃C)H₂C?PCl and – catalyzed by [MgCl₂? MgO/SiO₂]_∞ – (H₃C)₂C?PCl as well as the phosphaalkines HC≡P and (H₃C)C≡P are formed, all of which can be isolated by low temperature condensation. Based on the PES ionization patterns recorded and on the MNDO calculations for their assignment, the π_CP multiple bonds are discussed. The presumable pathway of the HCl elimination is rationalized for (H₃C)H₂C? PCl₂ by an approximate MNDO energy hypersurface.     

Mobilities of some positive and negative hydrogen ions in He and H2

Mobilities of H⁺ and H^? in He and in H₂, and of H⁺₂ and H⁺₃ in He, are calculated from ion-neutral potentials derived from theory and ion-beam scattering. Agreement with experiment is reasonable except for H^? in H₂ and H⁺₂ in He, which present unexplained puzzles.     

Übergangsmetall—carbin-komplexe : LIX. Keteniminyl-komplexe des mangans und rheniums durch addition von isocyaniden an kationische carbin-komplexe

Dicarbonylcyclopentadienylphenylcarbynemanganese tetrachloroborate, [C₅H₅(CO)₂MnCC₆H₅] [BCl₄], reacts with the isocyanides CH₃NC, cyclo-C₆H₁₁NC and t-C₄H₉NC, affording the thermolabile, dark green keteniminyl-complexes [C₅H₅(CO)₂MnC(C₆H₅)CNR] [BCl₄] (R′  CH₃, cyclo-C₆H₁₁, t-C₄H₉). A clear stabilisation results when SbCl₆^- replaces BCl₄^- as counterion, for example in the salt [C₅H₅(CO)₂MnC(C₆H₅)CNC₄H₉] [SbCl₆]. The product obtained by the reaction of [C₅H₅(CO)₂ReCCH₃] [BCl₄] with t-C₄H₉NC is extremely labile and could up to now only be examined using infrared technique.Under carefully controlled conditions, the t-C₄H₉ group splits off the manganese product [C₅H₅(CO)₂MnC(C₆H₅)CNC₄H₉] [BCl₄], yielding the carbene complex C₅H₅(CO)₂MnC(C₆H₅)CN. Decomposition can be reversed by N-alkylation of the carbene complex with t-C₄H₉Cl/SbCl₅, establishing an alternative synthetic route towards [C₅H₅(CO)₂MnC(C₆H₅)CNC₄H₉][SbCl₆].
