چکیده
The photochemical reaction of Tp'Rh(L)(eta2-PhN=L) [Tp' = tris-(3,5-dimethyl pyrazolyl)borate, L = CNCH(2)CMe(3)] to form the coordinatively unsaturated reactive fragment, [Tp'Rh(L)], in the presence of alkylnitriles has been studied. The [Tp'Rh(L)] complex has been shown to selectively activate the primary C H terminus of acetonitrile, propionitrile, butyronitrile, and valeronitrile. The resulting hydrides showed uncharacteristic stability in the presence of C(6)D(6) and their rates of reductive elimination were monitored by (1)H NMR spectroscopy. Competition reactions permit the establishment of the relative stabilities of the activation products.

The effect of alkyl substituents on the C-phenyl and/or the N-Phenyl ring of benzophenylhydroxamic acid on their molecular structure and hydrogen bonding has been investigated. The predominant configuration in CHCl3 is determined by steric and electronic effects. Substituents on the C-phenyl ring favor the cis configuration, while substituents in the N-phenyl ring favor a trans c...

In this research, a semi empirical approach has been suggested for calculating the activation energyof unimolecular thermal decomposition of vinyl ethers yielding saturated products. The calculationprocedure is based on the use of molecular mechanics (MM) methods. These methods which involvethe construction of the transition state for a molecule mainly consider the formation of a “HydrogenBridg...
