Equilibrium constants for the binding of ethyl (EIC), n-butyl (BIC), p-toluenesulphonylmethyl (TMIC) and 2,6-dimethylphenyl isocyanides (DIMPI) to an imidazole-haem complex in toluene and aqueous detergent micelle solutions were determined. In contrast to an earlier study, which indicated that the large affinities of myoglobin for binding DIMPI and 2,6-diethylphenylisocyanide (DEPI) relative to...

Irradiation of a toluene solution containing cyclopentadienone tricarbonyl iron complexes and isocyanides with blue LEDs afforded the formation isolation 12 triisocyanide complexes, two which, namely tris(2,6-dimethylphenyl isocyanide)(η 4 -tetraphenylcyclopenatedienone)iron, [Fe(C 9 H N) 3 (C 29 20 O)], tris(naphthalen-2-yl -tetraphenylcyclopenatedienone)iron acetone hemisolvate, 11 7 O)] 2 ·C...
