Theoretical Study of Addition Reaction of Carbene and Zigzag Single-walled Carbon Nanotube

The reaction mechanism between (H2C) and (7, 0), zigzag single-walled carbon nanotubes(ZSWCNTs) on two different orientation of C-C have been studied by semi empirical AM!method. The activation barriers of (H2C) adding to (7, 0) ZSWCNT are computed and compared.The effects of diameters of zigzag SWCNT on their binding energies were studied

Alkyne competition in the benzannulation reaction with chromium carbene complexes.

The benzannulation reaction of Fischer carbene complexes is investigated under conditions where the reaction of the carbene complex is occurring in the presence of two different alkynes. A series of competition experiments are examined where the effects of various structural factors are explored by pitting 10 different carbene complexes with 11 different alkynes. Terminal alkynes will react sel...

Carbon monoxide-promoted carbene insertion into the aryl substituent of an N-heterocyclic carbene ligand: Buchner reaction in a ruthenium carbene complex.

In the presence of carbon monoxide, ruthenium carbenes give a net insertion/ring expansion (Buchner reaction) into one of the aromatic rings of the N-heterocyclic carbene ligand. In alkene metathesis applications, the N-heterocyclic carbene ligand is both robust and typically inert to reactions with the metal-bound carbene. This unique reaction is completely regioselective. The complexes obtain...

Cyclopropenylidene carbene ligands in palladium catalysed coupling reactions: carbene ligand rotation and application to the Stille reaction.

Reaction of [Pd(PPh(3))(4)] with 1,1-dichloro-2,3-diarylcyclopropenes gives complexes of the type cis-[PdCl(2)(PPh(3))(C(3)(Ar)(2))] (Ar = Ph 5, Mes 6). Reaction of [Pd(dba)(2)] with 1,1-dichloro-2,3-diarylcyclopropenes in benzene gave the corresponding binuclear palladium complexes trans-[PdCl(2)(C(3)(Ar)(2))](2) (Ar = Ph 7, p-(OMe)C(6)H(4)8, p-(F)C(6)H(4)9). Alternatively, when the reactions ...
