Inorganic Linkage Isomerism of the Thiocyanate Ion

Chiral ruthenium complexes with sulfur ligands; X-ray structure of (R)Ru-Ru(NmCp)(CO)(PPh3)SCN (NmCp=neomenthylcyclopentadienyl)

“…It is interesting that in the closely related [RuCp(PPh 3 ) 2 NCS] complex the thiocyanate ligand is N-bonded [8]. We note that it has been suggested that decreasing the electron density at the metal centre favours a change in the bonding from M Á/SCN to MÁ/NCS [9]; this is clearly not the case here since the latter bis(triphenylphosphine) complex is more electron-rich than the carbonyl triphe- Table 1 Selected bond lengths (Å ) and bond angles (8) …”

Rh, Co, Ru and Pd complex catalyzed hydroformylation of ethylene using triphenylphosphine, triphenylarsine and triphenylstibine as ligands

“…Solvents (99.8%) required for the synthesis of complexes were obtained from Ranbaxy Fine Chemicals Ltd., India. Complexes, RhCl(PPh 3 ) 3 [5], RhCl(AsPh 3 ) 3 and RhCl(SbPh 3 ) 3 [6], RuCl 2 (PPh 3 ) 3 , RuCl 3 (AsPh 3 ) 2 · CH 3 OH and RuCl 2 (SbPh 3 ) 3 [7] and PdCl 2 (PPh 3 ) 2 , PdCl 2 (AsPh 3 ) 2 , and PdCl 2 (SbPh 3 ) 2 [8] were synthesized using reported methods and characterized by physicochemical techniques. Cobalt/EPh 3 (E = P, As, Sb) complexes were prepared in-situ using 1:60 molar ratio of the metal to ligand.…”

Synthesis and Self‐Assembly of a Rigid Exotopic Bisphenanthroline Macrocycle: Surface Patterning and a Supramolecular Nanobasket

“…[Pd(Ph 3 P) 2 Cl 2 ], [31] [Pd(Ph 3 P) 4 ], [32] 3, [13] (4-bromophenylethynyl)trimethylsilane [34] and 5-tert-butyl-1,3-diiodo-2-methoxybenzene [35] were prepared according to the literature procedures. Standard inert atmosphere and Schlenk techniques were employed for all the Heck reactions.…”
