Reaction des p-phenylphospholes avec le dicyclopentadienyl-difer-tetracarbonyle,synthese et etude spectrochimique des phosphaferrocenes

In boiling benzene, 1-phenyl-3,4-dimethylphosphole (L) with [(C₅H₅)Fe(CO)₂]₂ gives mainly a classical σ-complex in which L relaces one terminal CO. In boiling xylene, however, L also gives 3,4-dimethylphosphaferrocene and 2-phenyl-3,4-dimethylphosphaferrocene resulting from a P—Ph bond cleavage followed by a C-phenylation of the phospholyl nucleus in the second case. The same reaction with 1-phenylphosphole yields phosphaferrocene itself and a mixture of 2- and 3-phenylphosphaferrocene. The phosphaferrocenes thus prepared are exclusively acetylated at the phospholyl nucleus by the CH₃CGClAlCl₃ complex in CH₂Cl₂.With the unsubstituted phosphaferrocene, the acetylation takes place at the 2 and 3 positions (ratio $\text{2}\text{3}$ ～ $\text{85}\text{15}$) ¹H, ¹³C, ¹³P NMR and mass spectral data are given. The phosphaferrocene system is characterized by a very large ¹J(P—C) coupling (～60 Hz) and a very shielded phosphorus atom.

Carbon-13-nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of 5-coordinate tris-olefin complexes of rhodium(I)

Studies of the ¹³C N.M.R. spectra of the series RhX[P(Ch₂CH₂CHCH₂)₃] and RhX[P(CH₂CH₂CH₂CHCH₂)₃] where x  Cl or Br have revealed that (a) the J(¹⁰³Rh-¹³C) (olefin) for the complexes studied is only $\text{1}\text{2}$ ? $\text{1}\text{3}$ that found for square-planar complexes, and (b) the fluxional character in the olefinic carbons observed for the compounds RhX[P(CH₂CH₂CHCH₂)₃] is related to the partial rotation of the olefin about the rhodium-olefin bond.     

CH3O(X2E) production from 266 nm photolysis of methyl nitrite and reaction with NO

The CH₃O($\text{X}$²E) radical produced by the 266 nm photolysis of CH₃ONO is characterized by laser-induced fluorescence. Using a flowing gas cell the reaction rate of CH₃O($\text{X}$²E) with NO is measured to be (2.08 ± 0.12) × 10^?11 cm³ s^?1 molecule^?1 based upon disappearance of CH₃O and appearance of HNO detected by laser induced fluorescence. Upper limits for CH₃O reactions with CH₄, CO, N₂O, NH₃, CH₃OH, (CH₃)₃CH and CH₂CHCH₂CH₃ are reported. These reactions are all too slow to measure under our experimental conditions.     

Cleavage of iron2-alkenyl and iron2-alkynyl bonds by mercury(II) chloride

Reactions of HgCl₂ with η⁵-C₅H₅Fe(CO)₂R (R  CH₂CHCH₂ and CH₂C(CH₃)CH₂) in THF at 25°C rapidly afford $\text{1}\text{1}$ adducts of the two reactants. These adducts were converted to the corresponding PF₆^? salts, [η⁵-C₅H₅Fe(CO)₂(η²-CH₂C(R)CH₂HgCl)]⁺ PF₆^? (R  H and CH₃), for characterization. Slower reactions with cleavage of the ironcarbon σ bond and elimination of the R group from η⁵-C₅H₅Fe(CO)₂R occur for R  CH₂CHC(CH₃)₂, CH₂CHCHC₆H₅, and CH₂CCC₆H₅. Both elimination and $\text{1}\text{1}$ adduct formation are observed when R  CH₂CHCHCH₃. The kinetics of the cleavage reactions are presented and possible mechanisms for both cleavage and $\text{1}\text{1}$ adduct formation are discussed.

Proton and carbon nuclear magnetic resonance study on some n- and o-acyl derivatives of monohydroxypyridines

Comparative study on the proton and carbon NMR spectra for a series of $\text{N}$- and $\text{O}$-acyl substituted monohydroxypyridines (C₅H₄NO$\text{R}$: $\text{R}$=-H, -CHO, -COCH₃, -COC(CH₃)₃, -COCF₃, -COC₆H₅, -SO₂CH₃, -SO₂C₆H₄CH₃ is reported. p]Characteristic ¹H, ¹³ NMR and IR spectral features allow simple and unambiguous distinction between the isomeric $\text{N}$- and/or $\text{O}$-acyl-derivatives of 2-, 3- and 4-hydroxypyridines, so that both forms can clearly be identified when tautomeric equilibria occur, since the tautomerism rate is slow on the NMR time scale     

The chemical oxidation and electronic spectra of the complexes trans-[M(CNR)2(Ph2PCH2CH2PPh2)2] (M = Mo or W)

Oxidation of the complexes $\text{trans}$-[M(CNR)₂(dppe)₂] (A) (M = Mo or W; R = Me, Bu^t or CH₃C₆H₄-$\text{4}$; dppe = Ph₂PCH₂CH₂PPh₂) with diiodine or silver (I) salts gives the paramagnetic cations $\text{trans}$-[M(CNR)₂(dppe)₂]⁺, (M = Mo, R = CH₃C₆H₄-$\text{4}$; M = W, R = Bu^t) and $\text{trans}$-[M(CNR)₂(dppe)₂]²⁺ (M = Mo, R = Me or CH₃C₆H₄-$\text{4}$; M = W, R = Me or Bu^t). Mixtures of products are generally produced when dichlorine or dibromine are the oxidising agents, however pure salts, the seven-coordinate complex cations [MX(CNC₆H₄CH₃-$\text{4}$)₂(dppe)₂]⁺ (B, X = Cl or Br) have been isolated. A simple molecular orbital scheme is proposed for complexes (A) and used to discuss their electronic spectra and their oxidation.

The electric moments and static polarizabilities of BH(1σ²2σ²3σ², X¹Σ⁺) and CH⁺ (1σ²2σ²3σ², X¹Σ⁺) were calculated at the experimental internuclear separation in the LCAO SCF MO approximation. Most of the molecular properties reported in this paper for BH and CH⁺ appear for the first time and should be close to the Hartree—Fock limit. All tensors up to the fourth rank have been included in this study.

Synthesis,Reactions and Catalytic Activities of a Cationic Acrylonitrile-Rhodium(I) Complex

Reaction of RhCl (CO)(Ph₃P)₂(Ph₃P = triphenylphosphine) with AgClO₄ in acrylonitrile at 30°C produces a new cationic rhodium(I) complex, [Rh(CH₂CHCN)(CO) (Ph₃P)₂]ClO₄ ($\text{1}$) and AgCl. The ¹H-NMR and IR spectra of $\text{1}$ suggest that acrylonitrile is coordinated to rhodium through the π-system of the vinyl group. The complex $\text{1}$ reacts with molecular hydrogen to give a propionitrile-rhodium(I) complex, [Rh(CH₃ CH₂CN) (CO)(Ph₃P)₂ClO₄($\text{2}$) where the coordination of propionitrile through nitrogen is suggested by the ¹H-NMR and IR spectral data. The coordinated acrylonitrile in $\text{1}$ is readily replaced with triphenylphosphine and propionitrile to give [Rh(CO)(Ph₃P)₃] ClO₄ and $\text{2}$, respectively. The complex $\text{1}$ is catalytically active for the hydrogenation and polymerization of acrylonitrile at 25°C under the atmospheric pressure of hydrogen.     

Yield of I(2Psol:12) in the photodissociation of CH2I2

The production of I(²P_{$\text{1}\text{2}$}) in the photolysis of CH₂I₂ has been studied optoacoustically at excitation wavelengths between 365.5 and 247.5 nm. Bands found at 32200 and 47000 cm^?1 correlate with I(²P_{$\text{3}\text{2}$}) whilst those at 34700 and 40100 cm^?1, which correlate with I(²P_{$\text{1}\text{2}$}), give final ²P_{$\text{3}\text{2}$}/²P_{$\text{1}\text{2}$} ratios of 1.75 and 1.1, respectively, after curve crossing.     

Photodissociation of alkyl bromides

The branching ratios for the production of Br(4²P_{$\text{1}\text{2}$}) following the broadband flash photolysis of the alkyl bromides, CH₃Br and C₂H₅Br, and the perfluorinated molecules, CF₃Br, C₂F₅ Br and n-C₃F₇ Br, have been determined using time-resolved atomic absorption spectroscopy. The production of electronically excited bromine atoms is shown to be inefficient in the case of the alkyl bromides while the perfluorinated molecules yield decreasing amounts of Br(4²P_{$\text{1}\text{2}$}) as the molecular complexity increases, i.e., CF₃Br > C₂F₅Br > C₃F₅Br > C₃F₇. It is also shown that the hydrogenated bromides deactive electronically excited atoms almost two orders of magnitude faster than do the perfluorinated bromides.     

Equilibrium and kinetics of reversible capture of solvated electron-sodium+ pairs by 1,1-diphenylethylene in tetrahydrofuran

Solvated electron-Na⁺ pairs, e^?,Na⁺, and 1,1-diphenylethylene reversibly recombine in THF, the capture constant = 3 × 10⁷ M^?1 s^?1 and the detachment constant = 46 s^?1; the e^?,Na⁺, formed by flash-photolysis of Na⁺,$\text{C}\text{?}$(Ph)₂CH₂CH₂$\text{C}\text{?}$(Ph₂, Na⁺ survive for 0.1 s in this solvent at ambient temperature without any detectable decay.     

The quenching of excited iodine atoms by oxygen molecules as studied by opto-acoustic spectroscopy

The opto-acoustic spectrum of I₂ in the presence of various quenching gases — NO, O₂, CH₃I, SO₂, C₃H_S, N₂, and He — has been studied. Of these, the I₂/O₂ spectrum is quite different due to the near-resonant energy transfer I(²P$\text{1}\text{2}$) + O₂(³Σ) → I(²P$\text{3}\text{2}$) + O₂(^IΔ), wherein the resistance of the O₂((^IΔ) species to collisional relaxation severely distorts the acoustic signal. The photochemical production of excited ²P$\text{1}\text{2}$ iodine atoms commences at wavelengths considerably longer than the dissociation limit of the I₂B? state.

By reacting phenyltrifluorsilane with dialkylamines ($\text{1}\text{2}$) C₆H₅SiF₂NR₂(R = CH₃, C₂H₅) was obtained. The IR-, mass-, ¹H and ¹⁹F NMR spectra of the above-mentioned compounds are reported.     

A theoretical investigation of α-substituents on the structure,proton affinities and inversion barriers of silyl anions

Geometries, optimised at the double-zeta level, are reported for silanes SiH₃X and silyl anions SiH₂X^? where X = H, BH₂, CH₃, NH₂, OH and F. The anions are pyramidal with larger out-of-plane angles than their carbanion analogues and inversion barriers are large, varying from 34.3 $\text{kcal}\text{mole}$ for X = H up to 57.3 $\text{kcal}\text{mole}$ when X = F. The silylborane anion is planar at both boron and silicon and has a Si-B bond length shorter by 0.15 than in silylborane. Silyl anions are more stable than methyl anions by between 55 and 66 $\text{kcal}\text{mole}$.     

Oxidation of coordinated olefins: the reactions of Cl2 with trichloro(ehtylene)platinate(II)

The oxidation of [PtCl₃(C₂H₄)]- by Cl₂ in aqueous solution, to yield CH₂ClCH₂OH and [PtCl₄]^2-, has been shown to proceed through the following sequence of steps: [PtCl₃(C₂H₄)] Cl₂Cl [PtCl₅(CH₂CH₂Cl)]^2-$\text{H}{}_2\text{O}\text{(HCl)}$ [PtCl₅(CH₂CH₂OH)]^2- → [PtCl₄^2- + CH₂ClCH₂OHEach of the steps and intermediates in this mechanistic sequence has been identified and characterized.     

Photofragmentation of CH3Br in the A band

CH₃Br is photodissociated in the first continuum. Dissociation takes place into ground state CH₃ and Br [ = Br(²P_{$\text{3}\text{2}$}] or Br* [ = Br(*P_{$\text{1}\text{2}$})]. Time of flight and angular distributions of the CH₃ fragments are measured. The Br*/Br ratios upon excitation at 222 and 193 nm are found to be 1.00 and 0.20 respectively. The anisotropy parameters at these wavelengths are β = 0.28±0.04 and β = ?0.23±0.02, respectively. The total absorption cross section is decomposed into partial absorption cross sections of the ¹Q, ³Q₀ and ³Q₁ states. It appears that excitation at 222 nm takes place to the ³Q₀ and ³Q ₁ states whereas at 193 nm the ¹Q and ³Q₀ states are excited. Contrary to CH₃I, the adiabatic curve crossing between the ³Q₀ and the ¹Q states in Ch₃Br is not important. The dissociation energy of the CBr bond is determined to be D₀(CH₃Br) = 2.87±0.02 eV.
