The role of dislocations in the solid-state polymerization of monomers having conjugated triple bonds: A study of 2,4-hexadiyne-1,6-diol bis(p-toluen…
1975
The crystal structure of the monomer bis(p-toluene sulfonate) ester of 2,4-hexadiyne-1,6-diol (pT) is conducive from the viewpoint of both the separation distances and molecular configuration, to polymerization, irrespective of whether initiation is thermal, photochemical, or mechanical. The dislocations present in the monomer and polymer structures have been characterized by employing optical microscopic techniques. The slip system (102)[010] is found to be present in both monomer and polymer crystals but the (010)[001] system is found only in the monomer. On this basis a crystal structure for the monomer is proposed based on existing crystallographic information relating to the structure …
Heterogeneous Dinuclear Rhodium(II) Hydroformylation Catalysts—Performance Evaluation and Silsesquioxane-Based Chemical Modeling
2001
Supported, air stable, and reusable hydroformylation catalysts have been prepared by immobilizing dinuclear rhodium(II) complexes bearing ortho-metalated arylphosphane ligands on amorphous silica and mesoporous MCM-41 supports by phosphane tethers. The oligosilsesquioxane model complex of the catalytic site 1 has been prepared analogously and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.
