چکیده

Time-resolved infrared spectroscopy was used to probe the photochemistry of three (μ(2)-alkyne)Co(2)(CO)(6) complexes. The data indicate the formation of a triplet diradical species, with lifetimes in the range 38-71 ps. Theoretical calculations support these experimental findings. No evidence for the CO loss species, (μ(2)-alkyne)Co(2)(CO)(5), was observed, and this is rationalized by the low quantum yield for this process at the excitation wavelengths used.

Nacnac‐Cobalt‐Mediated P4 Transformations

A comparison of P4 activations mediated by low-valent β-diketiminato (L) cobalt complexes is presented. The formal Co0 source [K2 (L3 Co)2 (μ2 :η1 ,η1 -N2 )] (1) reacts with P4 to form a mixture of the monoanionic complexes [K(thf)6 ][(L3 Co)2 (μ2 :η4 ,η4 -P4 )] (2) and [K(thf)6 ][(L3 Co)2 (μ2 :η3 ,η3 -P3 )] (3). The analogue CoI precursor [L3 Co(tol)] (4 a), however, selectively yields the cor...

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of Cobalt(III) Complexes of Salen Type Schiff Bases and Tertiary Phosphanes as Ligands

The new [Co(Salen)(PBu3)2]ClO4, [Co(Salen)(PBu3)2]BF4, [Co(Salpn)(PBu3)2]ClO4 and [Co(Salen)(PMe2Ph)2]ClO4 ( where salen = bis(salisylaldehyde)ethylenediimine)) complexes were synthesiszed and chracterized by IR, UV-Vis, 1H NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. The IR and 1H NMR spectra cofirmed that the synthesised complexes contain Schiff base ligand, phosphane and conter ion and the eleme...

Simultaneous Spectrophotometric Determination of Iron, Cobalt and Copper by Partial Least-Squares Calibration Method in Micellar Medium

Iron, cobalt and copper are metals, which appear together in many real samples, both natural and artificial. Recently a classical univariate micellar colorimetric method has been developed for determination of these metal ions. The organized molecular assemblies such as micelles are used in spectroscopic measurements due to their possible effects on the systems of interest. The ability of mi...
