Spectroelectrochemical Investigation of Pentacarbonyl ( pyrazine ) metal ( 0 ) ( Metal = Cr , Mo , W ) Complexes of Group 6 Elements
نویسنده
چکیده
The electrochemical behaviour of pentacarbonyl(pyrazine)metal(0) complexes of the group 6 elements was studied by cyclic voltammetry in dichloromethane-(n-Bu)4NBF4 solventelectrolyte couple at –20 C vs. Ag/Ag+ or SCE reference electrode. Constant potential electrolyses of the complexes were carried out at their first oxidation peak potentials and monitored in situ by UV-Vis spectrometry. Electrolysis of W(CO)5pz produces [W(CO)5pz] and a similar electrochemical mechanism is expected both for Cr(CO)5pz and Mo(CO)5pz complexes. In situ low temperature constant current ESR electrolysis also confirmed the production of [W(CO)5pz] after the electron transfer.

Vibrational relaxation of M(C0)6 (M&r, MO, W): Effect of metal mass on vibrational cooling dynamics and non-Boltzmann internal energy distributions
The vibrational relaxation dynamics following the dissociation of CrO from M ( CO) 6 ( M = Cr, MO, W) have been studied with picosecond transient absorption spectroscopy. After dissociation of C=O, the pentacarbonyl species forms a complex with a solvent molecule. The cooling of these solvated pentacarbonyl complexes was monitored from 1 ps to 1 ns and different rates for vibrational relaxation...
متن کاملEPR and DFT studies of the structure of phosphinyl radicals complexed by a pentacarbonyl transition metal.
Paramagnetic complexes M(CO)5P(C6H5)2, with M = Cr, Mo, W, have been trapped in irradiated crystals of M(CO)5P(C6H5)3 (M = Cr, Mo, W) and M(CO)5PH(C6H5)2 (M = Cr, W) and studied by EPR. The radiolytic scission of a P-C or a P-H bond, responsible for the formation of M(CO)5P(C6H5)2, is consistent with both the number of EPR sites and the crystal structures. The g and 31P hyperfine tensors measur...

Neutral group 6B (Cr, Mo, W) pentacarbonyl complexes M(CO)5-L possessing various P-ligands such as phosphines, phosphaalkenes, and phospha-quinomethanes can form radical cations and anions under redox conditions. There is significant interest in whether the radical site is localized on the metal or on a "non-innocent" ligand. Density functional theory was used to predict whether the radicals of...

The group 6 metal mono-, bis- and tris-ferrocenylphosphine complexes [M(CO)5(PH2Fc)] (1a, M = Cr; 1b, M = Mo; 1c, M = W), cis-[M(CO)4(PH2Fc)2] (2a, M = Cr; 2b, M = Mo; 2c, M = W) and fac-[M(CO)3(PH2Fc)3] (3a, M = Cr; 3b, M = Mo; 3c, M = W) [Fc = Fe(η(5)-C5H4)(η(5)-C5H5)] were prepared and fully characterised. IR and NMR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis indicate that Fc...
متن کاملDiversity and design of metal-based carbon monoxide-releasing molecules (CO-RMs) in aqueous systems: revealing the essential trends.
The CO-releasing ability of a diverse library of primary metal carbonyl complexes has been assessed using a deoxymyoglobin-carbonmonoxymyglobin assay. A wide spectrum of rates for the CO-release process was observed in aqueous systems. For octahedral d(6) complexes, the rate was found to decrease in the sequence FeI(2)(CO)(4) > [NEt(4)][V(CO)(6)] > MnBr(CO)(5) > Cr(CO)(6) implying that CO-relea...
