Acetal complexes

In this experiment the importance of the soluble silver acetate complexes AgCH3COO(flq) and Ag(CH3COO)2 (flq) in describing the solubility of AgCH3COO(s) is investigated. 

Selectivity of propylene oxide from propylene has been reported as high as 97% (222). Use of a gas cathode where oxygen is the gas, reduces required voltage and eliminates the formation of hydrogen (223). Addition of carbonate and bicarbonate salts to the electrolyte enhances ceU performance and product selectivity (224). Reference 225 shows that use of alternating current results in reduced current efficiencies, especiaHy as the frequency is increased. Electrochemical epoxidation of propylene is also accompHshed by using anolyte-containing silver—pyridine complexes (226) or thallium acetate complexes (227,228). 

Snyder and Smith prepared diethyl acetamidomalonate in 40% yield by reduction of diethyl isonitrosomalonate in ethanol over palladium on charcoal followed by direct acetylation of diethyl aminomalonate in the filtrate with acetic anhydride. Ghosh and Dutta used zinc dust instead of palladium. A modification using Raney nickel is described by Akabori et al. Shaw and Nolan reported a 98% yield by conversion of diethyl oximino-malonate-sodium acetate complex. 

Silipo and Hansch 77) have developed correlation equations for the formation of a-cyclodextrin-substituted phenyl acetate complexes (Eq. 13), a-cyclodextrin-RCOO complexes (Eq. 14), and P-cyclodextrin-substituted phenylcyanoacetic acid anion complexes (Eq. 15). 

Another useful class of palladium-catalyzed cycloisomerizations is based on the general mechanistic pathway shown in Scheme 13. In this chemistry, a hydridopalladium acetate complex is regarded as the catalytically active species.27b-29 According to this pathway, coordination of a generic enyne such as 59 to the palladium metal center facilitates a hydropalladation reaction to give intermediate 60. With a pendant alkene, 60 can then participate in a ring-form-... 

The effect of chloride ion on the exchange was found by these workers to be very small, whereas Plane and Taube had estimated a rate coefficient about five times larger in the presence of 10 M chloride ion than in perchlorate solution. Van der Straaten and Aten have studied the exchange in media 1 M with respect to HCl and have estimated a rate coefficient 3.0 x 10 l.mole". sec . The isotopic method ( Cr) and a separation procedure based on the precipitation of Cr(II) as the acetate complex was used. 

Addition of a Co(III) sulphate solution in sulphuric acid to an olefin dissolved in acetic acid results in reduction of Co(III) at a rate commensurate with that observed for aqueous solution and with identical kinetics " Prior treatment of the Co(III) solution with acetic acid, however, causes the rate of reduction of Co(III) to become almost independent of olefin concentration. Evidently a Co(III)-acetate complex is formed in the mixture of acids which oxidises only after a rate-determining dissociation. However, this complex cannot be formed instantly, and uncomplexed Co(III) can attack olefins in acetic acid in a manner similar to that in water. 

Knowledge of stoichiometry of the induced reaction could help to distinguish whether chromium(V) or chromium(IV) species are involved in the oxidation of benzaldehyde. Thus, the Cr(V) hypothesis predicts that for each molecule of benzaldehyde oxidized two molecules of manganese dioxide should be formed, whereas the Cr(IV) predicts that one molecule of manganese dioxide should be formed for each two molecules of benzaldehyde oxidized. Unfortunately, the attempt to determine the stoichiometry of the induced reaction failed because the oxidized manganese species was not precipitated during the reaction presumably due to formation of acetate complexes in the concentrated acetic acid solution. 

The oxidation of phenol, ortho/meta cresols and tyrosine with Oj over copper acetate-based catalysts at 298 K is shown in Table 3 [7]. In all the cases, the main product was the ortho hydroxylated diphenol product (and the corresponding orthoquinones). Again, the catalytic efficiency (turnover numbers) of the copper atoms are higher in the encapsulated state compared to that in the "neat" copper acetate. From a linear correlation observed [7] between the concentration of the copper acetate dimers in the molecular sieves (from ESR spectroscopic data) and the conversion of various phenols (Fig. 5), we had postulated [8] that dimeric copper atoms are the active sites in the activation of dioxygen in zeolite catalysts containing encapsulated copper acetate complexes. The high substratespecificity (for mono-... 

The first test case was the ferrous high-spin state (Fe, S = 2) in the picket-fence porphyrin acetate complex [Fe(CH3COO)(TPpivP)] [13, 23], which is a model for the prosthetic group termed P460 of the multiheme enzyme hydroxyl-amine oxidoreductase from the bacterium Nitrosomonas europeae. Both the picket-fence porphyrin and the protein P460 exhibit an extraordinarily large quadrupole splitting, as observed by conventional Mossbauer studies [56]. 

The zinc acetate complex of tris(3-/-butyl-5-methylpyrazol-l-yl)borate was prepared as a structural model for carbonic anhydrase and comparison with the enzyme active site structures confirmed that the complexes are excellent structural models.239 A mononuclear zinc hydroxide complex can also be formed with the tris(pyrazolyl) borate ligand system as a structural model for carbonic anhydrase.240...

Literature data are available on the electronic structures of two more binuclear technetium complexes [(NHjLlOHLTcf/i-O TcfOH NHj ] (a hypothetical complex with the structure and composition analogous to those of the ethylen-diamminetetra-acetate complex [54,55]) and Tc2(CO)10 (a binuclear complex with strong crystal field ligands [168,169]. We shall consider the results of these calculations in greater detail.

The lead precursor in PbSe film deposition was lead acetate complexed with triethanolamine. The growth rate for PbSe was 0.18-0.16nm/cycle. The films were polycrystalline (i.e., cubic) without preferred orientation. The stoichiometry of SILAR-grown PbSe was found to be 1 1 within the limits of the RBS technique. Impurities detected were 5 at.% of oxygen and 8 at.% of hydrogen.103... 

Rhodium(II) acetate complexes of formula [Rh2(OAc)4] have been used as hydrogenation catalysts [20, 21]. The reaction seems to proceed only at one of the rhodium atoms of the dimeric species [20]. Protonated solutions of the dimeric acetate complex in the presence of stabilizing ligands have been reported as effective catalysts for the reduction of alkenes and alkynes [21].
