Restricted rotation in unbridged sandwich complexes: rotational behavior of closo-[Co(eta 5-NC4H4)(C2B9H11)] derivatives.

2005

Rotation about the centroid/ metal/centroid axis in ferrocene is facile; the activation energy is 1-5 kcal mol - 1 . The structurally similar sandwich complexes derived from closo-[3-Co(η 5 -NC 4 H 4 )-1,2-C 2 B 9 H 1 1 ] (1) have a different rotational habit. In 1, the cis rotamer in which the pyrrolyl nitrogen atom bisects the carboranyl cluster atoms is 3.5 kcal mol - 1 more stable in energy than the rotamer that is second lowest in energy. This cis rotamer is wide, spanning 216°, and may be split into three rotamers of almost equal energy by substituting the N and the carboranyl carbon atoms adequately. To support this statement, closo-[3-Co(η 5 -NC 4 H 4 )-1,2-(CH 3 ) 2 -1,2-C 2 B 9 H …

Defect-Free Chemical Functionalization of Magnetic Monolayers Based on Coordination Polymers

2018

<p>Chemical functionalization has demonstrated to be a powerful approach to tailor the physical and chemical properties of two-dimensional (2D) materials, to increase their processability and</p> <p>stability, to add new functionalities and, even, to create new 2D materials. However, this post synthetic method – which involves the anchoring of molecules on the surface of an exfoliated 2D crystal – inevitably leads to defective materials, which lack long-range structural order. If defect-free functionalized monolayers are required, a radically new approach needs to be developed. Here we present a pre-synthetic method based on coordination chemistry that affords the isolatio…

Asymmetric hydrogenation of an α-unsaturated carboxylic acid catalyzed by intact chiral transition metal carbonyl clusters – diastereomeric control o…

2020

Twenty clusters of the general formula [(μ-H)2Ru3(μ3-S)(CO)7(μ-P–P*)] (P–P* = chiral diphosphine of the ferrocene-based Walphos or Josiphos families) have been synthesised and characterised. The clusters have been tested as catalysts for asymmetric hydrogenation of tiglic acid [trans-2-methyl-2-butenoic acid]. The observed enantioselectivities and conversion rates strongly support catalysis by intact Ru3 clusters. A catalytic mechanism involving an active Ru3 catalyst generated by CO loss from [(μ-H)2Ru3(μ3-S)(CO)7(μ-P–P*)] has been investigated by DFT calculations. peerReviewed

Anion interaction with ferrocene-functionalised cyclic and open-chain polyaza and aza-oxa cycloalkanes

2016

A family of ferrocene-functionalised receptors of different topologies have been used as receptors for anions. The compounds have been designed to contain both amine nitrogen and ether oxygen atoms and comprises from monoaza to pentaaza derivatives both open-chain (L1, L2, L3) or cyclic (L4, L5) and having from one to five ferrocenyl groups. Solution studies directed to determine the protonation constants of L1, L2 and L3 have been carried out in water (0.1 mol dm3 KNO3, 25 °C) and those of L4 and L5 in 1,4-dioxane-water (70:30 v/v, 0.1 mol dm -3 KNO 3, 25 °C). The protonation behaviour of the receptors can be explained taking into account electrostatic considerations. Speciation studies in…

1,4,8,11-Tetrakis(4-ferrocenyl-3-azabutyl)-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane as a ferrocene-functionalised polyammonium receptor for electrochemical …

1999

The interaction of the ferrocene-functionalised polyaza receptor 1,4,8,11-tetrakis(4-ferrocenyl-3-azabutyl)-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane (L1) with sulfate, phosphate and ATP has been studied potentiometrically in THF–water 70∶30 v/v (0.1 mol dm–3 tetrabutylammonium perchlorate, 25 °C). The molecular structure of the free receptor has been determined by single-crystal X-ray procedures. An electrochemical study on L1 as a function of the pH has been carried out in THF–water 70∶30 v/v in the presence of the sulfate, phosphate and ATP anions. The potential use of L1 as an anion sensing receptor is discussed in terms of the electrochemical and potentiometric data and its behaviour is compar…

{1,1′-Bis[bis(5-methyl-2-furyl)phosphino]ferrocene-κ2P,P′}dichloroplatinum(II) dichloromethane hemisolvate

2005

The synthesis of the title compound, [FePtCl2(C15H14O2P)2]·0.5CH2Cl2, has been achieved by reacting PtCl2(PhCN)2 with the 1,1′-bis­[bis­(5-methyl-2-furyl)phosphino]ferrocene chelating ligand. The environment at the Pt atom can be described as distorted square-planar, with two cis-Cl atoms and two cis-P atoms.

Electrochemical and bioelectrocatalytical properties of novel block-copolymers containing interacting ferrocenyl units

2008

The electrochemical characterization of three different polystyrene-b-polybutadiene block-copolymers, functionalized with diferrocenylsilane units, is reported. The PB-blocks have been functionalized with different fractions of electronicall y communicated, PSm-PB„ p (HSiMeFc2)p units, where m = 615, n = 53, p = 39 (1), m = 375, n = 92, p = 76 (2) and m = 455, n = 204, p = 170 (3). Electrochemical character­ ization has been carried out both in solution and after electrochemical deposition onto platinum electrodes. The bioelectrocatalytical properties of electrodes modified with the polymers in the nicotinamide dinucleotide (NADH) and glucose oxidase (GOx) oxidations have been investigated …

Palladium-Catalyzed Hydroxycarbonylation of Aryl and Vinyl Bromides by Mixed Acetic Formic Anhydride

2006

The palladium-catalyzed hydroxycarbonylation of aryl and vinyl bromides in the presence of acetic anhydride and lithium formate as a carbon monoxide source has been developed. The combination of palladium(II) acetate with 1,1'-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene (dppf) is an efficient catalytic system when the reaction is carried out at 120 °C.
