Axial coordination

Finally, the concentrated localized AE events are represented on the monitor in the form of a histogram "number of localized AE events vs axial coordinate", which is automatically updated at user-defined time intervals. 

Dimensionless variables can be defined for time, the axial coordinate, and velocity ... 

Note that 0" < A< 60". The invariants A , and form a cylindrical coordinate system relative to the principal coordinates, with axial coordinate / A equally inclined to the principal coordinate axes, with radial coordinate /3t, and with angular coordinate The plane A" = 0 is called the II plane. Because the principal values can be ordered arbitrarily, the representation of A through its invariants in n plane coordinates has six-fold symmetry. 

An even more difficult problem occurs if the bar is not prismatic, i.e., if the moment of inertia is not constant along the length. We must then solve for l(x) where x is the axial coordinate of the bar. This optimization of cross-section distribution has been addressed only for problems with fixed E and L, not the general column design problem. 

The mechanism through which catalytic metal carbene reactions occur is outlined in Scheme 2. With dirhodium(II) catalysts the open axial coordination site on each rhodium serves as the Lewis acid center that undergoes electrophilic addition to the diazo compound. Lewis bases that can occupy the axial coor-... 

The role of the rhodium is probably two-fold. Initially due to its Lewis acidity it reversibly forms a complex with the nitrile nitriles are known to complex to the free axial coordination sites in rhodium(II) carboxylates as evidenced by the change of colour upon addition of a nitrile to a solution of rhodium(II) acetate, and by X-ray crystallography. Secondly the metal catalyses the decomposition of the diazocarbonyl compound to give a transient metallocarbene which reacts with the nitrile to give a nitrile ylide intermediate. Whether the nitrile ylide is metal bound or not is unclear. 

Each heme unit in myoglobin and hemoglobin contains one ion bound to four nitrogen donor atoms in a square planar arrangement. This leaves the metal with two axial coordination sites to bind other ligands. One of these sites is bound to a histidine side chain that holds the heme in the pocket of the protein. The other axial position is where reversible binding of molecular oxygen takes place. 

CPOs are best characterized by the following three features 1) axial coordination to the incorporated metals, 2) specific nano-sized space created by rigid porphyrin panels, and 3) specific (photo-induced) redox reactions associated with the porphyrin s rr-electron system. In this chapter, some examples are reviewed based on these properties. 

Afonso, Gois, and co-workers followed this report with an unexpected decarbonylation of diazo-acetamides (Scheme 9.14) using 43-NHC (Fig. 9.8) [58]. The reaction generated three different products, with low selectivity for the decarbonylated product. The authors tested other substrates with different R groups and bulk at the amine position but found no correlation to the amount of decarbonylation product formed. However, 43-IPr was more selective than 43-SIPr for the decarbonylation product. The authors attributed the decarbonylation to the axial coordination of the NHC ligand to the dirhodium (11) complexes. 

Cu(3a)2] (BF4)2, [Cu(3a-H)Cl], and [Cu(3a)Br2], where 3a is 2-acetylpyridine N-methylthiosemicarbazone, have been prepared and studied spectroscopically [179], The former complex involves planar bonding by pyridyl and azomethine nitrogen atoms of each ligand and likely involves axial coordination of the thione sulfur atoms since v(d-d) = 15 670 cm , which is at lower energy... 

In 2005, Nguyen et al. reported the first example of asymmetric cyclopropa-nation of olefins with EDA mediated by a combination of a (salen) ruthenium(II) catalyst and a catalytic amount of a chiral sulfoxide (Scheme 6.7). These authors proposed that the mechanism explaining the asymmetric induction involved the axial coordination of the chiral sulfoxide to the ruthenium centre as the key induction step in the reaction stereoselectivity. 

Imamura (11,20,21) synthesized several similar perpendicular dimers exploiting axial coordination of the 4-pyridyl free-base porphyrin to Ru(II)CO (3) and Os(II)CO (4) porphyrins (Fig. 1). The pyridine-ruthenium and pyridine-osmium interactions are much stronger than the pyridine-zinc interaction, and the complexes are perfectly stable in solution and can be isolated by precipitation. One of the ruthenium dimers was characterized by FAB-MS (11). Complexation is accompanied by characteristic changes in JH NMR chemical shift, indicating... 

An extended bipyridinic ligand was synthesized by Tykwinski (34) and was shown by H NMR spectroscopy and single crystal X-ray crystallography to axially coordinate to two Ru(II)(CO) porphyrins (26, Fig. 7). 

The axial coordination of metalloporphyrins to a pyridyl ligand was successfully exploited by two groups to produce porphyrin-stoppered rotaxanes. Sanders (48) assembled a rotaxane by simply mixing the constituent parts. Zn(II), Ru(II)CO, and Rh(II)Cl porphyrins were used as stoppers. Branda (49) reported the stoppering of a pseudorotaxane by adding two equivalents of a Ru(II)CO porphyrin that coordinated to...

In the present case, the electron hopping chemistry in the polymeric porphyrins is an especially rich topic because we can manipulate the axial coordination of the porphyrin, to learn how electron self exchange rates respond to axial coordination, and because we can compare the self exchange rates of the different redox couples of a given metallotetraphenylporphyrin polymer. To measure these chemical effects, and avoid potentially competing kinetic phenomena associated with mobilities of the electroneutrality-required counterions in the polymers, we chose a steady state measurement technique based on the sandwich electrode microstructure (19). 

The Co complexes of the o-phenylenediamine-linked dioxime Hdmg2Ph bearing a variety of monodentate ligands (halides and pseudo halides) in the axial coordination sites have been synthesized.1176 B12 model complexes [RCo(dmg2Ph)(L)]+ (R = Me, Et, Me2CH, Bz, ch L = py, H-im, or PPh3) were prepared by the oxidative addition reactions of the alkyl halide to the in situ-generated monovalent dibromo complex.
