Molybdenum ethoxide

Bis(2,4-pentanedionato)chromium, 3326 Molybdenum hexamethoxide, 2596 Potassium /er/-butoxide, 1650 Potassium ethoxide, 0861 Potassium methoxide, 0450... 

When sodium ethoxide is used in place of sodium hydroxide in the carbonylation reaction of benzyl halides with dicobalt octacarbonyl, ethyl esters are produced instead of the acids [15], Esters are also produced directly from iodoalkanes through their reaction with molybdenum hexacarbonyl in the presence of tetra-/i-butylammo-nium fluoride [16]. Di-iodoalkanes produce lactones [16]. The reaction can be made catalytic in the hexacarbonyl by the addition of methyl formate [16]. t-Butyl arylacetic esters are produced in moderate yield (40-60%) under phase-transfer catalytic conditions in the palladium promoted carbonylation reaction with benzyl chlorides [17]. 

The interaction of molybdenum and bismuth ethoxides is also accompanied by ether elimination and the crystallization of a crystalline cubic phase of approximate composition Bi203 3Mo03. The mixed solutions of bismuth and tungsten ethoxides and those of molybdenum and bismuth 2-methoxyethox-ides turned out to be more stable. The occurrence of the interaction between the components was revealed by their tremendously increased solubility in the presence of each other (see Fig. 8.1 h).
