Bis cyclopentadienyl magnesium

The classic (if not classical) metal sandwich species bis(cyclopentadienyl)iron has the formula [(CH)5]2Fe (CpaFe) and the semisystematic name ferrocene, and so the related magnesium-containing species [(CHfsJaMg (CpaMg) is often accompanied by the name magnesocene. We commence our discussion with this species. 

There are two independent determinations of the solid-phase enthalpy of formation of magnesocene. The first measurement of 66.9 3.3 kJmor results from analysis of the hydrolytic reaction of magnesocene with aqueous H2SO4 (equation 21). 

There are few studies that address relative isomer stability of substituted magnesocenes. For example, the acid-catalyzed transalkylation (alkyl scrambling) studies of disubstituted benzenes would destroy the organometallic of interest. One suggestive

Reaction of an alkyl (usually trimethyl) of Group-IIIb element (Al, Ga, In) with a hydride of a Group-Vb element (P, As, Sb) at 600-800°C and 1 atm. [4i][42] p. doping obtained from addition of diethyl zinc or bis(cyclopentadienyl) magnesium. 

The molar ratio of the III compound to the V compound is typically l/lO.t ] To obtain the desired semiconductor properties, dopants are added such as zinc (from diethyl zinc) or magnesium (from bis(cyclopentadienyl) magnesium) for p doping, and silicon (from silane) or selenium (from hydrogen selenide) for n doping.

Soon after the first synthesis of bis(cyclopentadienyl)magnesium (56), its structure in the solid state, based on X-ray powder diffraction data, was reported . A more refined structure based on a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study was reported later . The structure in the solid state is isostructural with that of ferrocene. The two parallel... 

The substituted cyclopentadienylmagnesium compounds 62a and 62b have been prepared from the corresponding fulvenes (equation 8) and were structurahy characterized in the solid state by X-ray crystallography . The structures are, as expected, (tj -bonded cyclopentadienyl groups) for bis(cyclopentadienyl)magnesium compounds.
