Conjugated dienes, upon complexation with metal carbonyl complexes, are activated for Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction at the akyhc position. Such reactions are increasingly being used in the stereoselective synthesis of acylated dienes. Friedel-Crafts acetylation of...

Ruthenium- and cobalt-catalyzed hydroformylation of internal and terminal alkenes in molten [PBuJBr was reported by Knifton as early as in 1987 [2]. The author described a stabilization of the active ruthenium-carbonyl complex by the ionic medium. An increased catalyst lifetime at low synthesis gas pressures and higher temperatures was observed. 

Two commonly used synthetic methodologies for the synthesis of transition metal complexes with substituted cyclopentadienyl ligands are important. One is based on the functionalization at the ring periphery of Cp or Cp metal complexes and the other consists of the classical reaction of a suitable substituted cyclopentadienyl anion equivalent and a transition metal halide or carbonyl complex. However, a third strategy of creating a specifically substituted cyclopentadienyl ligand from smaller carbon units such as alkylidynes and alkynes within the coordination sphere is emerging and will probably find wider application [22]. 

Two separate publications (125, 126) described the synthesis of a number of carbonyl complexes of vanadium. The mononuclear species V(CO) , n = 1-6, have all been identified by using CO matrix-dilution experiments and mixed CO- CO isotope experiments while main-... 

In the early work on the thermolysis of metal complexes for the synthesis of metal nanoparticles, the precursor carbonyl complex of transition metals, e.g., Co2(CO)8, in organic solvent functions as a metal source of nanoparticles and thermally decomposes in the presence of various polymers to afford polymer-protected metal nanoparticles under relatively mild conditions [1-3]. Particle sizes depend on the kind of polymers, ranging from 5 to >100 nm. The particle size distribution sometimes became wide. Other cobalt, iron [4], nickel [5], rhodium, iridium, rutheniuim, osmium, palladium, and platinum nanoparticles stabilized by polymers have been prepared by similar thermolysis procedures. Besides carbonyl complexes, palladium acetate, palladium acetylacetonate, and platinum acetylac-etonate were also used as a precursor complex in organic solvents like methyl-wo-butylketone [6-9]. These results proposed facile preparative method of metal nanoparticles. However, it may be considered that the size-regulated preparation of metal nanoparticles by thermolysis procedure should be conducted under the limited condition. 

A half-metallocene iron iodide carbonyl complex Fe(Cp)I(CO)2 was found to induce the living radical polymerization of methyl acrylate and f-bulyl acrylate with an iodide initiator (CH3)2C(C02Et)I and Al(Oi- Pr)3 to provide controlled molecular weights and rather low molecular weight distributions (Mw/Mn < 1.2) [79]. The living character of the polymerization was further tested with the synthesis of the PMA-fc-PS and PtBuA-fi-PS block copolymers. The procedure efficiently provided the desired block copolymers, albeit with low molecular weights. 

While the chemistry of metal carbonyl complexes has enjoyed a rather long and colorful history, being extensively studied and widely reviewed (7-3), the synthesis and reactivity of the group 4B (Ti, Zr, Hf) metal carbonyls have developed relatively slowly. Although the first well-characterized group 4B metal carbonyl complex, bis(i7-cyclopentadienyl)-dicarbonyltitanium (1), was reported by Murray of Monsanto Co. in... 

We differentiate between synthesis and formation because in many cases a substrate may be carbonylated resulting in the formation of a given carbonyl complex, however, this may not necessarily be considered as a viable synthetic route to the carbonyl complex in question. The original intent of the investigators may not have been to develop a new route to this carbonyl complex, but rather only to study the reaction of CO with the substrate. 

The second approach consists of synthesizing first the complex MLra 1(L X) with the desired ratio (L )/(M) this complex bears the reactive fragment X which then reacts with the surface of the silica. This method is of limited interest, because the synthesis and isolation of these functionalized complexes is not straightforward. One of the successful examples concerns the synthesis of nickel carbonyl complexes anchored to the surface via two bonds in an attempt to increase the stability through a sort of chelate effect. Initial attempts to achieve this by the methods described in Equation(5) (initial functionalization of silica) and Equation(6) (initial functionalization of complex) failed, as demonstrated by 29Si and 31P CP MAS NMR spectroscopies.51...

Fischer-Tropsch synthesis could be "tailored by the use of iron, cobalt and ruthenium carbonyl complexes deposited on faujasite Y-type zeolite as starting materials for the preparation of catalysts. Short chain hydrocarbons, i.e. in the C-j-Cq range are obtained. It appears that the formation and the stabilization of small metallic aggregates into the zeolite supercage are the prerequisite to induce a chain length limitation in the hydrocondensation of carbon monoxide. However, the control of this selectivity through either a definite particle size of the metal or a shape selectivity of the zeolite is still a matter of speculation. Further work is needed to solve this dilemna. 

DMPO has been used in the synthesis of the first metalloporphyrin nitrone complex (443). On the basis of nitrone ligands (L) (Scheme 2.81) the synthesis of rhodium (I) carbonyl complexes of the type [Rh(CO)2ClL] was carried out. These complexes are used as effective catalysts of methanol carbonylation into acetic acid and its ester (444). 

The tetra-cA-cycIononatetracne 241 is unstable and easily rearranges at 23 °C (t /2 50 min) to the isomeric d.v-8,9-dihydroindcne 242 (equation 77)89. It is interesting, however, that the iron(III) tricarbonyl complex of tetraene 241 is stable for many days at room temperature and isomerizes to the Fe-complex of 242 only upon heating in octane at 101 °C89. The principle of stabilization of the reactive multiple bonds with metal carbonyl complexes is well-known in modem organic synthesis (e.g. see the acylation of enynes90). 

The heteroatom-substituted carbene complexes most frequently used in organic synthesis are carbonyl complexes of the type (CO)5M=C(X)R (M Cr, Mo, W X OR, NR2 R H, alkyl, aryl, vinyl, alkynyl, etc.). To some extent such complexes behave as carboxylic esters or amides, the (CO)5M=C group having electronic properties similar to those of a carbonyl group (Figure 2.16).
