Synthesis and selective silylation of ω-hydroxy functionalized (η-alkenyl)carbene complexes of chromium(0) and tungsten(0) Part 11. The chemistry of metallacyclic alkenylcarbene complexes

Tungsten(0) carbene complexes of the type (OC)₅WC(NMeCH₂CHCHCH₂OH)R 2 (R=Me: 2a; R=Ph: 2b) were generated by aminolysis of (OC)₅WC(OMe)R with cis-NHMeCH₂CHCHCH₂OH. Like their Cr-congeners 1, complexes 2 exist at room temperature as mixtures of Z- and E-isomers with regard to the C-N bond. The metallacyclic complexes (OC)₄WC(η²-NMeCH₂CHCHCH₂OH)R (4) were obtained in good yields upon photo-decarbonylation of 2. Deprotonation/silylation of the complexes (OC)₄MC(η²-NMeCH₂CHCHCH₂OH)Me (M=Cr: 3a; M=W: 4a) with one equivalent of ⁿBuLi/Me₃SiCl gave (OC)₄MC(η²-NMeCH₂CHCHCH₂OSiMe₃)CH₃ (M=Cr: 5; M=W: 6), whereas with two equivalents of ⁿBuLi/Me₃SiCl complexes (OC)₄MC(η²-NMeCH₂CHCHCH₂OSiMe₃)CH₂SiMe₃ (M=Cr: 7; M=W: 8) were formed. Hydrolysis of the latter yielded selectively (OC)₄MC(η²-NMeCH₂CHCHCH₂OH)CH₂SiMe₃ (M=Cr: 9; M=W: 10). The complexes 1-10 were analyzed in solution by one- and two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy (¹H, ¹³C, ²⁹Si, ¹H/¹H COSY, ¹H/¹H NOESY, ¹³C/¹H HETCOR).     

Trimethylsilylcyclopentadienylchromium(III) complexes with diphenyl-2-pyridylphosphine: synthesis, structural characterisation and catalytic behaviour of [(C6H5)2PC5H4NH][(η-Me3SiCp)CrCl3]

Reaction of CrCl₃ with LiCpSiMe₃ in THF leads to the formation of a solvated intermediate, [(η⁵-Me₃SiCp)CrCl₂(THF)], which in turn reacts with diphenyl-2-pyridylphosphine to yield the complex [(C₆H₅)₂PC₅H₄NH][(η⁵-Me₃SiCp)CrCl₃] (1) in 66% yield. As a secondary product was isolated the neutral complex [(η⁵-Me₃SiCp)CrCl₂{(C₆H₅)₂PC₅H₄N}] (2) in 5% yield. The structure of complex 1 has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. In the anion the metal centre shows a pseudo-octahedral geometry with the centroid of the trimethylsilylcyclopentadienyl ligand occupying the centre of three octahedral sites, and three chloride atoms completing the co-ordination sphere. Complex 1 in the presence of MAO leads to the formation of an active catalyst for the polymerization of ethylene.     

Copper-catalyzed dimerization of chromium Fischer carbene complexes: synthesis of dialkoxytrienes and their Nazarov-type cyclization to 2-alkoxy-2-cyclopentenones

Fischer carbene complexes 1 underwent a clean ligand dimerization reaction yielding functionalized olefins and trienes 4 in the presence of copper (I) catalysts. If treated with trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), trienes 4c, d, f undergo a cyclization process (Nazarov reaction) which furnishes cyclopentenone derivatives 6c, d, 7c, d and 8 in good yields. Finally, the Fischer aminocarbene 9 efficiently cyclodimerizes to the substituted arene 10 in the presence of CuBr.     

Room temperature photoluminescence of amorphous BaxSr1−xTiO3 doped with chromium

ABO₃ amorphous materials, such as BaTiO₃ (BT), SrTiO₃ (ST), PbTiO₃ (PT), and Ba_xSr_1−xTiO₃ (BST) have recently attracted a good deal of attention due to their ferroelectric and electro-optical properties. Intense photoluminescence at room temperature was observed in amorphous titanate doped with chromium (Ba_xSr_1−xTi_1−yCr_yO₃) prepared by the polymeric precursor method. Results indicated that substantial luminescence at room temperature was achieved with the addition of small Cr contents to amorphous Ba_xSr_1−xTi_1−yCr_yO₃. Further addition of Cr or crystallization were deleterious to the intensity of the luminescent peak obtained for excitation using λ=488.0 nm.

Synthesis and structure of mixed-metal thiolate complex Cp′Cr(CO)2(μ-SBu)Pt(PPh3)2: Side-on-coordination of Cr–S double bond with platinum

The reaction of [Cp′Cr(CO)₂(μ-SBu)]₂ (1) (Cp′ = MeC₅H₄) with (PPh₃)₂Pt(PhCCPh) gives Cp′Cr(CO)₂(μ-SBu)Pt(PPh₃)₂ (2) which could be regarded as a product of the substitution of acetylene ligand at platinum by a monomeric chromium–thiolate fragment. According to the X-ray diffraction analysis 2 contains single Cr–Pt (2.7538(15)) and Pt–S (2.294(2) Å) bonds while Cr–S bond (2.274(3) Å) is shortened in comparison with ordinary Cr–S bonds (2.4107(4)–2.4311(4) Å) in 1. The bonding between Cr–S fragment and platinum atom is similar to the olefine coordination in their platinum complexes.

Organically nanoporous silica gel based on carbon paste electrode for potentiometric detection of trace Cr(III)

A new ion-selective electrode (ISE) for the detection of trace chromium(III) was designed by using 2-acetylpyridine and nanoporous silica gel (APNSG)-functionalized carbon paste electrode (CPE). The presence of APNSG acted as not only a paste binder, but also a reactive material. With 7.5 wt% APNSG proportions, the developed electrode exhibited wide dynamic range of 1.0 × 10⁻⁸ to 1.0 × 10⁻³ M toward Cr(III) with a detection limit of 8.0 × 10⁻⁹ M and a Nernstian slope of 19.8 ± 0.2 mV decade⁻¹. The as-prepared electrode displayed rapid response (∼55 s), long-time stability, and high sensitivity. Moreover, the potentiometric responses could be carried out with wide pH range of 1.5-5.0. In addition, the content of Cr(III) in food samples, e.g. coffee and tea leaves, has been assayed by the developed electrode, atomic absorption spectrophotometer (AAS) and atomic emission spectrometer (ICP-AES), respectively, and consistent results were obtained. Importantly, the response mechanism of the proposed electrode was investigated by using AC impedance and UV-vis spectroscopy.     

Why does poly(acrylic acid) addition improve the quality of holograms recorded in dichromated poly(vinyl alcohol)?

Holographic measurements have shown that the addition of 0.5% of poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) can improve the quality of holograms recorded in poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) doped with ammonium dichromate (ADC). The purpose of this paper is to explain this improvement. First, an analytical approach investigated the structural and architectural modification of the polymeric matrix and the fate of the various chromium species within PVA/PAA/ADC films. The addition of PAA in dichromated PVA led to a pre-reticulation of the polymeric matrix. This process increased with the amount of PAA.Second, an analytical approach focused on the evolution of PVA/PAA/ADC films upon irradiation at 365 nm, which is representative of hologram formation. The improvement brought by the presence of 0.5% of PAA in PVA/ADC was assigned to an additional source of crosslinking through the formation of covalent bonds. This process paralleled the crosslinking through coordination bonds involving Cr(V) and PVA units. At 0.5% of PAA, the mobility of the medium before exposure was sufficient to allow the migration of the species involved in the reticulation process during hologram formation, whereas higher concentrations of PAA inhibited this migration.     

Chromium(III) complexes with terdentate 2,6-bis(azolylmethyl)pyridine ligands: Synthesis, structures and ethylene polymerization behavior

Reactions of 2,6-bis(bromomethyl)pyridine with 3,5-dimethylpyrazole and 1H-indazole yield the terdentate ligands 2,6-bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-ylmethyl)pyridine (5) and 2,6-bis(indazol-2-ylmethyl)pyridine (6). The molecular structure of the new compound 6 was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. These ligands react with the CrCl₃(THF)₃ complex in THF to form neutral complexes of general formula [CrCl₃{2,6-bis(azolylmethyl)pyridine-N,N,N}] (7, 8) which are isolated in high yields as stable green solids and characterized by means of elemental analysis, magnetic moments, IR, and mass spectroscopy. Theoretical calculations predict that the thermodynamically preferred structure of the complexes is the fac configuration. After reaction with methylaluminoxane (MAO) the chromium(III) complexes are active in the polymerization of ethylene.
