Benzoic acid and naphthoic acid are formed by the oxidative carbonylation by use of Pd(OAc)2 in AcOH. t-Bu02H and allyl chloride are used as reoxidants. Addition of phenanthroline gives a favorable effect[360], Furan and thiophene are also carbonylated selectively at the 2-position[361,362]. fndole-3-carboxylic acid is prepared by the carboxylation of 1-acetylindole using Pd(OAc)2 and peroxodisulfate (Na2S208)[362aj. Benzoic acid derivatives are obtained by the reaction of benzene derivatives with sodium palladium mal-onate in refluxing AcOH[363]. 

This experiment describes the use of FIA for determining the stoichiometry of the Fe +-o-phenanthroline complex using the method of continuous variations and the mole-ratio method. Directions are also provided for determining the stoichiometry of the oxidation of ascorbic acid by dichromate and for determining the rate constant for the reaction at different pH levels and different concentration ratios of the reactants. 

In analogy to the situation for bipyridine, the blue tris(l,10-phenanthroline)iron(3+) ion [1347949-7], [Fe(phen)2], must be obtained by oxidation of the corresponding iron(II) ion. [Fe(phen)2] has an absorption maximum at 590 nm, an absorptivity of 600 (Mem), and a formation constant of 10 . In solutions of pH > 4, this species is reduced to the iron(II) complex. The reduction is instantaneous in alkaline solution. At pH < 2, protons compete with iron(III) for the phenanthroline nitrogens and coordination is incomplete. [Fe(phen)2] is used most often in solution as an oxidant, but the trichloride [40273-22-1] and the triperchlorate monohydrate [20774-81-6] salts have been prepared. 

Like mthenium, amines coordinated to osmium in higher oxidation states such as Os(IV) ate readily deprotonated, as in [Os(en) (NHCH2CH2NH2)] [111614-75-6], This complex is subject to oxidative dehydrogenation to form an imine complex (105). An unusual Os(IV) hydride, [OsH2(en)2] [57345-94-5] has been isolated and characterized. The complexes of aromatic heterocycHc amines such as pyridine, bipytidine, phenanthroline, and terpyridine ate similar to those of mthenium. Examples include [Os(bipy )3 [23648-06-8], [Os(bipy)2acac] [47691-08-7],... 

Although gravimetric methods have been used traditionally for the determination of large amounts of tellurium, more accurate and convenient volumetric methods are favored. The oxidation of teUurium(IV) by ceric sulfate in hot sulfuric acid solution in the presence of chromic ion as catalyst affords a convenient volumetric method for the determination of tellurium (32). Selenium(IV) does not interfere if the sulfuric acid is less than 2 N in concentration. Excess ceric sulfate is added, the excess being titrated with ferrous ammonium sulfate using o-phenanthroline ferrous—sulfate as indicator. The ceric sulfate method is best appHed in tellurium-rich materials such as refined tellurium or tellurium compounds. 

Wet-Chemical Determinations. Both water-soluble and prepared insoluble samples must be treated to ensure that all the chromium is present as Cr(VI). For water-soluble Cr(III) compounds, the oxidation is easily accompHshed using dilute sodium hydroxide, dilute hydrogen peroxide, and heat. Any excess peroxide can be destroyed by adding a catalyst and boiling the alkaline solution for a short time (101). Appropriate ahquot portions of the samples are acidified and chromium is found by titration either using a standard ferrous solution or a standard thiosulfate solution after addition of potassium iodide to generate an iodine equivalent. The ferrous endpoint is found either potentiometricaHy or by visual indicators, such as ferroin, a complex of iron(II) and o-phenanthroline, and the thiosulfate endpoint is ascertained using starch as an indicator. 

One of the best oxidation-reduction indicators is the 1,10-phenanthroline-iron(II) complex. The base 1,10-phenanthroline combines readily in solution with iron(II) salts in the molecular ratio 3 base l iron(II) ion forming the intensely red l,10-phenanthroline-iron(II) complex ion with strong oxidising agents the iron(III) complex ion is formed, which has a pale blue colour. The colour change is a very striking one ... 

The standard or formal potential of ferroin can be modified considerably by the introduction of various substituents in the 1,10-phenanthroline nucleus. The most important substituted ferroin is 5-nitro-l,10-phenanthroline iron(II) sulphate (nitroferroin) and 4,7-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline iron(II) sulphate (dimethylferroin). The former (E° = 1.25 volts) is especially suitable for titrations using Ce(IV) in nitric or perchloric acid solution where the formal potential of the oxidant is high. The 4,7-dimethylferroin has a sufficiently low formal potential ( e = 0.88 volt) to render it useful for the titration of Fe(II) with dichromate in 0.5 JVf sulphuric acid. 

In the Meisenheimer reaction of quinoline 1-oxides chlorine atoms usually enter the 2-and 4-positions, but not exclusively. 2,4-Dibromoquinoline 1-oxide was 6-chlorinated (57MI1), and the 5- and 6-nitroquinoline 1-oxides were 3-chlorinated to some extent (44JOC302). This reaction with phosphoryl chloride-phosphorus pentachloride has also been used in the preparation of chlorinated phenanthrolines (88YZ1148). 

Prior equilibria. The oxidation of tris-( 1, lO-phenanthroline)iron(II) ion by permanganate ion is characterized by this rate law 18... 

Oxidative Heck arylation of enamides with arylboronic acids, using oxygen gas as a reoxidant for Pd(0) and 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline as a chelating regiocontrolling ligand, yielded a (= internally) arylated reaction product as the major compound with a very good a//3 selectivity [92]. Microwave irradiation with prepressurized sealed vials proved useful in reducing the reaction time (Scheme 82).
