Stable mononuclear lead(III) compound: a lead-centered radical.
A Superoxovanadium(V) Complex Linking the Peroxide and Dioxygen Chemistry of Vanadium.
A missing link: A superoxovanadium(V) complex is the first reaction intermediate in the oxidative conversion of a peroxovanadium(V) complex into a vanadyl(IV) complex and molecular oxygen. The superoxo species appears also to play an essential role in the formation of the peroxovanadium(V) complex from the vanadyl(IV) complex and molecular oxygen.
Decacyclene as complexation manifold: synthesis, structure and properties of its Fe2 and Fe4 slipped triple-decker complexes.
Reaction of [(eta(5)-Me4EtC5)Fe(II)Cl(tmeda)] (tmeda = N,N,N'N'-tetramethylethylenediamine) with a polyanion solution of decacyclene (1) results in the formation of the triple-deckers [{(eta(5)-Me4EtC5)Fe}2-mu2-(eta(6):eta(6)-decacyclene)] (3) and [{(eta(5)-Me4EtC5)Fe}4-mu4-(eta(6):eta(6):eta(6):eta(6)-decacyclene)] (4). Metal complexation in 3 and 4 occurs on opposite faces of the pi perimeter in an alternating mode. The decacyclene ring adopts a gently twisted molecular propeller geometry with twofold crystallographic symmetry (C2). Complex 4 crystallizes in the chiral space group C222(1); the investigated crystal only contains decacyclene rings with M chirality. The handedness can be ass…
