Synthesis and luminescence of poly(phenylacetylene)s with pendant iridium complexes and carbazole groups

Poly(phenylacetylene)s containing pendant phosphorescent iridium complexes have been synthesized and their electrochemical, photo- and electroluminescent properties studied. The polymers have been synthesized by rhodium-catalyzed copolymerization of 9-(4-ethynylphenyl)carbazole (CzPA) and phenylacetylenes (C∧N)2Ir(κ2-O,O′-MeC(O)CHC(O)C6H4CCH-4) (C∧N = κ2-N,C1-2-(pyridin-2-yl)phenyl (IrppyPA) or κ2-N,C1-2-(isoquinolin-1-yl)phenyl (IrpiqPA)). In addition, organic poly(phenylacetylene)s with pendant carbazole groups have been synthesized by rhodium-catalyzed copolymerization of CzPA and 1-ethynyl-4-pentylbenzene. Complex (C∧N)2Ir(κ2-O,O′-MeC(O)CHC(O)Ph) (IrpiqPh; C∧N = 2-(isoquinolin-1-yl)phen…

Erosion, screening, and migration of tungsten in the JET divertor

The erosion of tungsten (W), induced by the bombardment of plasma and impurity particles, determines the lifetime of plasma-facing components as well as impacting on plasma performance by the influx of W into the confined region. The screening of W by the divertor and the transport of W in the plasma determines largely the W content in the plasma core, but the W source strength itself has a vital impact on this process. The JET tokamak experiment provides access to a large set of W erosion-determining parameters and permits a detailed description of the W source in the divertor closest to the ITER one: (i) effective sputtering yields and fluxes as function of impact energy of intrinsic (Be,…

Abstract [Au(2-C6H4CH2NMe2)Cl2] reacts with [Hg(2-C6H4CH2NMe2)2] (2/1) or with [Hg(2-C6H4CH2- NMe2)Cl] (1/1) both in the presence of an excess of [Me4N]Cl to give [Au(2-C6H4CH2NMe2)2Cl] (1) which reacts with KCN or AgClO4 to give [Au(2- C6H4CH2-NMe2)2CN] (2) or [Au(2-C6H4CH2- NME2)2]ClO4 (3), respectively. The solution behavior of these complexes is studied by NMR spectroscopy.

Mercurated and Palladated Iminophosphoranes. Synthesis and Reactivity

Reaction of the iminophosphorane Ph3PNC6H4Me-4 (1a) with Hg(OAc)2 and LiCl gives the mercurated iminophosphorane [Hg{C6H3(NPPh3)-2-Me-5}Cl] (2). The latter reacts with NaBr to give [Hg{C6H3(NPPh3)-2-Me-5}Br] (3). 2 reacts with MeC6H4NCO-4 or CX2 (X = O, S) to give [Hg{C6H3(NCNC6H4Me-4‘)-2-Me-5}Cl] (4) or [Hg{C6H3{NCNC6H3(HgCl)-1‘-Me-5‘}-2-Me-5}Cl] (5), respectively. Iminophosphoranes Ph3PNC6H4R-4 (1b) react with Pd(OAc)2 to give the complexes [Pd{κ2-C,N-C6H4(PPh2NC6H4R-4‘)-2}(μ-OAc)]2 (R = Me (6a), MeO (6b)), in which the palladation takes place at one of the phenyl substituents of the PPh3 group.

Mono- and di-nuclear complexes of ortho-palladated and -platinated 4,4′-dimethylazobenzene with bis(diphenylphosphino)methane. More data on transphobia

Abstract Complexes [Pd(κ2-R)(μ-Cl)]2 [κ2-R=κ2-C,N′-C6H3(NNC6H4Me-4′)-2-Me-5 (1)] and [Pd(κ1-R)Cl(κ1-dppm)(κ2-dppm)]TfO [dppm=bis(diphenylphosphino)methane (2)] have been used to prepare new palladium derivatives containing dppm. Thus, complex 1 reacts with one equivalent of dppm to afford [{Pd(κ2-R)Cl}2(μ-dppm)] (3) and with AgClO4 and dppm (1:2:2 molar ratios) to give [Pd(κ2-R)(κ2-dppm)]ClO4 (4·ClO4). The triflate salt of this complex (4·TfO) reacts with PPh3 to yield [Pd(κ1-R)(PPh3)(κ2-dppm)]TfO (5). Dinuclear complexes were obtained by reacting 2, (i) with [AuCl(PPh3)] or [AuCl(tht)] (tht=tetrahydrothiophene) (1:1, −60 °C) and (ii) with 1 (2:1) to give, respectively, [Pd(κ1-R)Cl(μ-dppm…

Overview of the JET results in support to ITER

The 2014–2016 JET results are reviewed in the light of their significance for optimising the ITER research plan for the active and non-active operation. More than 60 h of plasma operation with ITER first wall materials successfully took place since its installation in 2011. New multi-machine scaling of the type I-ELM divertor energy flux density to ITER is supported by first principle modelling. ITER relevant disruption experiments and first principle modelling are reported with a set of three disruption mitigation valves mimicking the ITER setup. Insights of the L–H power threshold in Deuterium and Hydrogen are given, stressing the importance of the magnetic configurations and the recent m…

Synthesis and Reactivity of 2-Aminophenylpalladium(II) Complexes: Insertion Reactions of Oxygen and Carbon Monoxide into Carbon−Palladium Bonds—New Examples of “Transphobia”

Insertion of CO into 2-aminophenylpalladium complexes leads to 2-aminobenzoylpalladium derivatives. When these compounds are forced to coordinate a carbon donor and a phosphane ligand in the trans position, a C−P coupling process or an insertion of oxygen occurs (see scheme). In this case, a dinuclear palladium complex containing a bridging anthranilato ligand is isolated.
