Regioselective ortho‐Metallation of 2‐Diphenylphosphanylpyridine and (2‐(2‐Diphenylphosphanyl)phenyl)‐1‐3‐dioxalane with Methyltetrakis(trimethylphosphane)cobalt(I)

Co(CH₃)(PMe₃)₄ forms 100 % regioselectively with (2‐(2‐diphenylphosphanyl)phenyl)‐1,3‐dioxalane and 2‐diphenylphosphanyl‐pyridine, by elimination of methane, the four‐membered metallacycles Co{(C₃O₂HC₆H₃)P(C₆H₅)₂}(PMe₃)₃ ( 1 ) and Co{(CNC₄H₃)P(C₆H₅)₂}(PMe₃)₃ ( 4 ). The regioselectivity is independent of the steric requirement of the ortho substituent in the 2‐diphenylphosphanylaryl‐ligands. Oxidative addition with iodomethane transforms 1 and 4 into octahedral, diamagnetic low‐spin d⁶ complexes Co(CH₃)I‐{(C₃O₂HC₆H₃)P(C₆H₅)₂}(PMe₃)₂ ( 2 ) and Co(CH₃)I‐{(CNC₄H₃)P(C₆H₅)₂}(PMe₃)₂ ( 5 ). Under an atmosphere of carbon monoxide, insertion into the Co‐C bond results in ring expansion by forming the new assembled phosphanylbenzoyl complexes Co{(C₄O₃HC₆H₃)‐P(C₆H₅)₂}CO(PMe₃)₂ ( 3 ) and Co{(OCNC₄H₃)P(C₆H₅)₂}CO(PMe₃)₂ ( 6 ). The three different types of cobaltacycles are supported by X‐ray diffraction of 1 , 3 , 5 and 6 .

Frequency– and Time-domain BEM Analysis of Rigid Track on a Half-Space with Vibration Barriers

The rapid development of high-speed trains like the TGV or the ICE in recent years results in high dynamic loads causing vibrations which propagate from the train-track structure into the ground and further into nearby buildings. In this context it is important to develop rigid tracks with improved dynamic behaviour and to investigate possible means of vibration reduction. The boundary element method in frequency and time domain is used to simulate train-track structures subjected to dynamic loading and the reduction of vibrations which for instance can be achieved via a trench running parallel to the rigid track. In this context the non-causality error, which arises when the time-domain BEM algorithm is applied to mathematically concave domains, is discussed and the substructure method is proposed as a solution to this problem. A two-layered cylindrical elastic structure on a half-space with a trench is added as an example of a possible application.
