Transition metals ligand types

This treatment of coordination polymerization with Ziegler type catalysts is independent of whether the growing polymer end is attached to a Group I—III metal or to a transition metal. Both types can be obtained depending upon the alkylating ability of the alkyl metal with respect to the transition metal component. In both cases the ionic character of the M-R bond can vary appreciably with the cation electronegativity, i. e., with the metal, its oxidation state and ligands. The...

Some C-H bonds of transition metal ligands are found to have an agostic interaction of type 12, where a C-H bond is oriented in a manner to intramolecularly bind to the metal. 

A new family of hybrid organic-inorganic catalysts with dispersed active sites inside ordered mesoporous materials has been prepared by anchorage of transition-metal ligands of Schiff base-type and chiral amino alcohols like (li ,2S)-ephedrine on micelle-templated silicas [180]. Metalation of the grafted ligands with manganese was followed by UV-VIS spectroscopy. 

As is well known, the- efficiencies of Ziegler-Natta catalysts are influenced by the nature and valence state of the transition metal, the types of ligands attached to the metal, and the catalyst morphology. Varying the ligands linked to the metal can change the distribution of the electron density of the metal (i.e., the bond polarity) in the active species, so that the catalyst activity is affected. 

Scheme 9.3b shows three 4e-binders that serve as double connectors. A typical one is a diamine molecule like H2N(CH2)2NH2 that uses its two amino centers to form two bonds to a TM. Chemists call such ligands bidentate, namely a ligand that has two teeth to bite on the transition metal. Another type of bidentate ligand is the one... 

Section 14 14 Transition metal complexes that contain one or more organic ligands offer a rich variety of structural types and reactivity Organic ligands can be bonded to a metal by a ct bond or through its it system Metallocenes are transition metal complexes m which one or more of the ligands is a cyclopentadienyl ring Ferrocene was the first metallocene synthesized Its electrostatic potential map opens this chapter... 

Carbon monoxide [630-08-0] (qv), CO, the most important 7T-acceptor ligand, forms a host of neutral, anionic, and cationic transition-metal complexes. There is at least one known type of carbonyl derivative for every transition metal, as well as evidence supporting the existence of the carbonyls of some lanthanides (qv) and actinides (1) (see AcTINIDES AND THANSACTINIDES COORDINATION COMPOUNDS). 

The cationic aqua complexes prepared from traws-chelating tridentate ligand, R,R-DBFOX/Ph, and various transition metal(II) perchlorates induce absolute enantio-selectivity in the Diels-Alder reactions of cyclopentadiene with 3-alkenoyl-2-oxazoli-dinone dienophiles. Unlike other bisoxazoline type complex catalysts [38, 43-54], the J ,J -DBFOX/Ph complex of Ni(C104)2-6H20, which has an octahedral structure with three aqua ligands, is isolable and can be stored in air for months without loss of catalytic activity. Iron(II), cobalt(II), copper(II), and zinc(II) complexes are similarly active. 

Recently some information became available on a new type of highly active one-component ethylene polymerization catalyst. This catalyst is prepared by supporting organometallic compounds of transition metals containing different types of organic ligands [e.g. benzyl compounds of titanium and zirconium 9a, 132), 7r-allyl compounds of various transition metals 8, 9a, 133), 7r-arene 134, 185) and 71-cyclopentadienyl 9, 136) complexes of chromium].
