Familiarization with advanced techniques for
syntheses and characterization of coordination compounds and
organomatallic complexes including the use of standard Schlenk and
vacuum line techniques. Crystallization, distillation and sublimation as
purification methods will be practiced. Representative examples as:
- Synthesis and reactivities of organocobaloximes.
- Prepration of tris(acetylacetonato) iron(III).
- Preparation tris(ethylenediammine)cobalt(II) ion and its
resolution into optical antipodes.
- Synthesis of hexaminecobalt(III) chloride and
pentammineaquacobalt(III) chloride.
- Silicones-its preparation and characterization.
- Other silicone polymers and bouncing putty.
- Preparation of an iron (or nickel) nitrosyl complex.
- Synthesis of a cationic iodine complex.
- Synthesis of bis(cyclopentadienyl)iron(II) (ferrocene).
- Dilithiation of ferrocene and synthetic uses of the product in the
preparation of acetyl ferrocene.
- Preparation of bis(cyclopentadienyl) nickel (nickelocene).
- Synthesis of a metal-metal bonded cyclopentadienyl complex of
molybdenum, Cp
Mo(CO)
.
- Synthesis of an arenetricarbonyl chromium(0) complex.
- Preparation of boronic acid from Grignard reagents and trimethyl
borate.
- Preparation of chiral salen based catalysts of Co, Cr derived from
3,5-di-tert-butylsalicylaldehdye and
trans-1,2-diaminocyclohexane,
