Molecular organometallics

Because ethyl radicals have been observed in the preceding experiment, which also suggest that these radicals are stable at 50 K, the initial formation of ethyl radicals would undoubtedly lead to the observation of the radicals. A possible mechanism may be proposed by analogy to molecular organometallic chemistry. Negishi et al. have shown that the reaction of zir-conocene dichloride with AlEts hberates ethane and forms a coordinated ethylene according to [129] ...

Note that, while this reaction (as well as alkane hydrogenolysis) involves known elementary steps of molecular organometallic chemistry, it has not been discovered in homogeneous catalysis. One reason might be that highly... 

One should note that these mechanisms imply only well-known elementary steps of molecular organometallic chemistry [167]. 

Overall, this study shows that, like in molecular organometallic chemistry, the chemistry on metal surfaces follows similar elementary steps, and that it is possible to have a molecular understanding of catalytic phenomenon such as paraffin transformations on metal particles.

Equations 10 and 11 indicate that the redox potential of the HQ/BQ couple is shifted in the negative direction when ti6-chemisorbed but shifted in the positive direction when 2,3-ti2-bonded. This orientation-dependent shift in redox potential is not unexpected by analogy with molecular organometallic compounds. For example, the redox potential for the reversible, one-electron reduction of duroquinone in acetonitrile is shifted from -0.90 V (vs. SCE) to -0.69 V in bis (duroquinone) Ni (0) and to -1.45 V in (1,5 — cyclooctadiene) (duroquinone)Ni (0) (22.) ...
