Metalation in the presence

Evidence for the solvated electron e (aq) can be obtained reaction of sodium vapour with ice in the complete absence of air at 273 K gives a blue colour (cf. the reaction of sodium with liquid ammonia, p. 126). Magnesium, zinc and iron react with steam at elevated temperatures to yield hydrogen, and a few metals, in the presence of air, form a surface layer of oxide or hydroxide, for example iron, lead and aluminium. These reactions are more fully considered under the respective metals. Water is not easily oxidised but fluorine and chlorine are both capable of liberating oxygen ... 

Alkyltin Intermedia.tes, For the most part, organotin stabilizers are produced commercially from the respective alkyl tin chloride intermediates. There are several processes used to manufacture these intermediates. The desired ratio of monoalkyl tin trichloride to dialkyltin dichloride is generally achieved by a redistribution reaction involving a second-step reaction with stannic chloride (tin(IV) chloride). By far, the most easily synthesized alkyltin chloride intermediates are the methyltin chlorides because methyl chloride reacts directiy with tin metal in the presence of a catalyst to form dimethyl tin dichloride cleanly in high yields (21). Coaddition of stannic chloride to the reactor leads directiy to almost any desired mixture of mono- and dimethyl tin chloride intermediates ... 

Lithium Amide. Lithium amide [7782-89-0], LiNH2, is produced from the reaction of anhydrous ammonia and lithium hydride. The compound can also be prepared by the removal of ammonia from solutions of lithium metal in the presence of catalysts (54). Lithium amide starts to decompose at 320°C and melts at 375°C. Decomposition of the amide above 400°C results first in lithium imide, Li2NH, and eventually in lithium nitride, Li N. Lithium amide is used in the production of antioxidants (qv) and antihistamines (see HiSTAMlNE AND HISTAMINE ANTAGONISTS). 

Silane reacts with methanol at room temperature to produce methoxymonosilanes such as Si(OCH2)4 [78-10-4] HSi(OCH2)3, and H2Si(OCH3)2 [5314-52-3] but not H SiOCH [2171 -96-2] (23). The reaction is catalyzed by copper metal. In the presence of alkoxide ions, SiH reacts with various alcohols, except CH OH, to produce tetraalkoxysHanes and hydrogen (24). 

Tiichloiomethanesulfenyl chloiide can be reduced to thiophosgene by metals in the presence of acid and by various other reducing agents. The sulfur-bonded chlorine of trichloromethanesulfenyl chloride is most easily displaced by nucleophilic reagents, but under some conditions, the carbon-bound chlorines are also reactive (54). 

New chelating ion-exchange resins are able to selectively remove many heavy metals in the presence of high concentrations of univalent and divalent cations such as sodium and calcium. The heavy metals are held as weaMy acidic chelating complexes. The order of selectivity is Cu > Ni > Zn > Co > Cd > Fe + > Mn > Ca. This process is suitable for end-of-pipe polishing and for metal concentration and recovery. 

Boric oxide is an excellent Lewis acid. It coordinates even weak bases to form four-coordinate borate species. Reaction with sulfuric acid produces H[B(HSO 4] (18). At high (>1000° C) temperatures molten boric oxide dissolves most metal oxides and is thus very corrosive to metals in the presence of oxygen. 

Cobalt(II) acetylacetonate [14024-48-7] cobalt(II) ethyUiexanoate [136-52-7] cobalt(II) oleate [14666-94-5] cobalt(II) linoleate [14666-96-7] cobalt(II) formate [6424-20-0], and cobalt(II) resinate can be produced by metathesis reaction of cobalt salt solutions and the sodium salt of the organic acid, by oxidation of cobalt metal in the presence of the acid, and by neutralization of the acid using cobalt carbonate or cobalt hydroxide.

The reverse reaction to give the gaseous species AlX(g) at high temperature accounts for the enhanced volatility of AIF3 when heated in the presence of A1 metal, and the ready volatilization of A1 metal in the presence of AICI3. Using calculations of the type outlined on p. 82 the standard heats of formation of the crystalline monohalides AIX and their heats of disproportionation have been estimated as ... 

Acetone is the best solvent for NBR hydrogenation in the presence of palladium carboxylates. No hydrogenation is achieved when chloroform or chlorobenzene are the solvents. Since it is understood that palladium is reduced to colloidal metal in the presence of hydrogen, attempts have also been made to reduce the palladium by hydrazine [76], methylaluminoxane [84], and trialky] aluminum [85] to improve the catalytic activity. 

Redox reactions occur in the reduction of ores (metal oxides) into pure metals and the corrosion (oxidation) of pure metals in the presence of oxygen and water. Rusting iron, 4Fe + 30, + 611,0 —> 4Fe(OH), is a good example of metal oxidation. Strong oxidizing agents can be used as antiseptics (hydrogen peroxide, Fd,0,) or bleaches (sodium hypochlorite, NaOCl). 

The niobium reduction mechanism is also confirmed by the observation of the slow spontaneous reduction of Nb5+ to Nb4+ in a LiF - NaF - KF eutectic melt, even with no added Nb metal. In the presence of a stoichiometric amount of Nb metal, the spontaneous reduction occurs more rapidly [554].

The chemistry of indium metal is the subject of current investigation, especially since the reactions induced by it can be performed in aqueous solution.15 The selective reductions of ethyl 4-nitrobenzoate (entry 1), 2-nitrobenzyl alcohol (entry 2), l-bromo-4-nitrobenzene (entry 3), 4-nitrocinnamyl alcohol (entry 4), 4-nitrobenzonitrile (entry 5), 4-nitrobenzamide (entry 6), 4-nitroanisole (entry 7), and 2-nitrofluorenone (entry 8) with indium metal in the presence of ammonium chloride using aqueous ethanol were performed and the corresponding amines were produced in good yield. These results indicate a useful selectivity in the reduction procedure. For example, ester, nitrile, bromo, amide, benzylic ketone, benzylic alcohol, aromatic ether, and unsaturated bonds remained unaffected during this transformation. Many of the previous methods produce a mixture of compounds. Other metals like zinc, tin, and iron usually require acid-catalysts for the activation process, with resultant problems of waste disposal. 

We have already shown how simultaneous codeposition of two metals in inert-gas matrices can lead to the formation of mixed-metal dimers. As in the case of silver, it was found that irradiation into the atomic absorptions of Cr or Mo results in formation of their respective dimers and trimers (114). In addition to this, however, irradiation into the atomic resonances of the two metals in the presence of each other results (114) in formation of the mixed-metal species CrMo, CrjMo, and CrMo2. It would seem that selective irradiation into the 300-400-nm bands of atomic Cr or Mo excites the 3d 4p, 3dMs 4p , or 4d 5p, ...

NMR spectroscopy has been used to detect hydrides on various oxide-supported metals in the presence of H2 and on La203-supported Ir4, in the absence of H2 [37]. The kinetics of chemisorption of H2 supports the inference of hydride formation by dissociative adsorption of H2 [38].

Historically, AuF has been one of the most elusive of all metal halides. At one time it was believed to be impossible to prepare, and theoretical papers speculating on how it might be observed or predicting spectroscopic and structural properties have been published until recently.3075- 1 The existence of AuF has been confirmed by microwave spectroscopy, the sample has been prepared by laser ablation of Au metal in the presence of a F precursor.3082 The gas-phase structure of Aul has also been determined by microwave spectroscopy.3083... 

The mechanism of the cocatalytic effect is still a matter of investigation. For most of the systems of interest in electrocatalysis, data for characterization of the surface by means of spectroscopic UHV methods are still missing. Also measurements of changes in the electronic properties of the metal in the presence of adatoms in addition to more intensive application of in situ and on-line methods are desirable for a systematic search of new catalytic materials. 

The vibrational spectrum of a metal complex is one of the most convenient and unambigious methods of characterization. However, it has not been possible to study the interactions of metal ions and biological polymers in this way since the number of vibrational bands from the polymer obscure the metal spectrum. The use of laser techniques for Raman spectroscopy now make it very likely that the Raman spectra of metals in the presence of large amounts of biological material will be measured (34). The intensity of Raman lines from metal-ligand vibrations can be...
