چکیده

Treatment of carbon-yl(1,2-diphenylpenta-1,3-dien-1-yl-5-yl-idene)bis-(tri-phenyl-phosphane)iridium, [IrCO(-C(Ph)=C(Ph)-CH=CH-CH=)(PPh3)2], with either bromine or iodine produced di-bromido-(1,2-diphenylpenta-1,3-dien-1-yl-5-yl-idene)(tri-phenyl-phosphine)iridium(III), [IrBr2{-C(Ph)=C(Ph)-CH=CH-CH=}(PPh3)], (I), and (1,2-diphenylpenta-1,3-dien-1-yl-5-yl-idene)di-iodido-(tri-phenyl-phosphane)iridium(III), [IrI2{-C(Ph)=C(Ph)-CH=CH-CH=}(PPh3)], (II), respectively, which are two rare examples of 16-electron metalla-benzenes. Structural elucidation of (I) and (II) reveals that these isotypic irida-benzenes are unusual, not only in their electron count, but also in their coordination sphere of the Ir(III) atom where they contain an apparent open coordination site. The crystal structures of (I) and (II) confirm that the mol-ecules are complexes containing five-coordinated Ir(III) with only one tri-phenyl-phosphine group bound to the iridium atom, unambiguously proving that the mol-ecules are indeed 16-electron, high-oxidation-state irida-benzenes. The coordination geometry of the Ir(III) atom in both structures can be best described as a distorted square pyramid with the P, two Br (or I) and one C atom in the basal plane and another C atom in the apical position.

Theoretical investigations on molecular structure, NBO, HOMO-LUMO and MEP analysis of two crystal structures of N-(2-benzoyl-phenyl) oxalyl: A DFT study

The N-(2-benzoyl-phenyl) oxalyl derivatives are important models for studying of three-centered intramolecular hydrogen bonding in organic molecules. The quantum theoretical calculations for two crystal structures of N-(2-benzoyl-phenyl) oxalyl (compounds I and II) were performed by Density Functional Theory (B3LYP method and 6-311+G* basis set). From the optimized structures, geometric paramet...

Regulating the stability of 2D crystal structures using an oxidation state-dependent molecular conformation.

The oxidation state of the phenol-substituted porphyrin TDtBHPP is coupled with its structure so that its 2-electron oxidation leads to a coplanarization of the molecule and a substantial stabilization of its surface self-assembled structures adsorbed at metal substrates.

Catalytic oxidation of toluene over LaBO3 (B= Fe, Mn and Co) and LaCo0.7B′0.3O3 (B′= Fe and Mn) perovskite-type

In this paper, LaBO3 perovskite type catalyst formulations were prepared by sol-gel auto combustion method using citric acid as the fuel. Activity of catalysts was tested in catalytic oxidation of toluene as a model of volatile organic compounds. LaCoO3 perovskite formulation showed the highest activity among LaBO3 (Fe, Mn and Co) perovskite catalysts. So, LaCoO3 perovskite based catalyst was s...
