Cobalt-mediated radical polymerisation of methyl acrylate is effected at moderate temperature by both a square planar bis(beta-ketoaminato)cobalt(II) complex in the presence of V-70 diazo radical initiator, and by a well-defined cobalt(III) alkyl derivative in the absence of a diazo complex. Polymerisation rates suggest that both reversible termination and degenerative transfer mechanisms are o...

Institut Agronomique, Universit6 de Louvain, H~verl6-Louvain (Belgium) ABSTRACT MO~TTMOm~LLONrrE may adsorb cobalt(III)hexammine and cobalt(III)chloropentammine cations, and the C.E.C. determined for these complex cations is of the order of magnitude of that obtained with ammonium. The infrared spectra of these coordination complexes adsorbed by the clay are similar to those observed for the co...

Treatment of [UO(2)(Ar(2)nacnac)Cl](2) with 4 equiv. of Li(C(4)H(5)N(2)) results in the formation of a rare uranyl organometallic complex [Li(MeIm)][UO(μ-O)(Ar(2)nacnac)(μ-C,N-C(4)H(5)N(2))(2)] (2), in moderate yield. Reaction of 2 with 1 equiv. of MCl(2) (M = Fe, Co) yields the bimetallic complexes [MCl(MeIm)][UO(2)(Ar(2)nacnac)(μ-N,C-C(4)H(5)N(2))(2)] (M = Fe, 3; M = Co, 4).

The title complex, [CoNa(CO5P)(H2O)5]n, was obtained by reacting sodium phosphono-formate with cobalt nitrate. The complex contains cobalt(II) and sodium ions, which are bridged by the O atoms of two aqua ligands. The Co(II) ion is octahedrally coordinated by three phosphonoformato ligands (one bi- and the other monodentate) and by two O atoms from the bridging aqua ligands. The sodium cation i...

The evolution and the current trends in a new area of chemistry of organometalloporphyrins, in metalloporphyrin chemistry are reviewed. Synthesis and properties of out of plane, di—nuclear, and "Skewered" metalloporphyrins are described. The new chemistry of metalloporphyrins was initiated by the application of Cr(CO)6, metal carbonyl in general, for insertion of Cr ion (metal ions) into por— p...

A novel one-pot laser-assisted approach is reported herein for the synthesis of ordered carbons with embedded cobalt nanoparticles. The process is based on a UV pulsed laser exposure of an ethanolic solution consisting of green carbon precursors, a structure directing agent and a cobalt salt. Very short irradiation times (5 to 30 min) are only required to polymerize and cross-link carbon precur...

The trinuclear title compound, [Co(3)(CH(3)COO)(4)(C(20)H(22)N(2)O(6))(2)]·2CH(2)Cl(2), contains mixed-valence cobalt ions in the following order Co(III)-Co(II)-Co(III) where all the three cobalt ions are hexa-coordinated. The central cobalt ion is situated on an inversion centre and is in an all-oxygen environment, coordinated by four phenolate O atoms and two O atoms from bridging acetate gro...
