In the present work, we have developed an efficient catalytic procedure for the chemo-selective acetylation of various substrates like amines, phenols and alcohols into their corresponding acetylated products using acetyl chloride in the presence of catalytic amount of metal acetylacetonates covalently anchored onto amine functionalized silica under solvent-free conditions. The catalysts were c...

Reaction of metal-free N-confused 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-chlorophenyl)porphyrin (H2NTClPP) with metal-free 5,10,15,20-tetrakis[(4-tert-butyl)phenyl]porphyrin (H2TBPP) in the presence of M(III)(acac)3·nH2O (acac = acetylacetonate) in refluxing 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene (TCB) led to the isolation of heteroleptic bis(porphyrinato) rare earth compounds M(III)(HNTClPP)(TBPP) (M = La, Pr) (1, 2) in 6.7-1...

The controlled synthesis of poly(3-hexylthiophene)s (P3HTs) with number-average molecular weights (Mns) up to 350 kg mol(-1) has been realized with Ni(IPr)(acac)2 as the catalyst.

The reaction of [Pt(II)(2-phenylpyridine)(acac)] and benzothiazolium bromide yields the N,S-heterocyclic carbene ligand trans to pyridyl while, surprisingly, a very similar N,N-heterocyclic carbene coordinates predominantly trans to the cyclometallated carbon.

Benzylic zinc reagents prepared by direct insertion of zinc to benzylic chlorides in the presence of LiCl undergo smooth cross-coupling reactions with aromatic chlorides, bromides and tosylates using Ni(acac)(2) and PPh(3) as a catalyst system.

vo2+ and its complexes with ethylenediamine (en), acetylacetonate (acac), 2, 2’-bipyridine(bpy) ligands, immobilized within nanoreactors of al-mcm-41 designated as vo2+/al-mcm-41 or vol2/al-mcm-41, were prepared and characterized by x-ray powder diffraction (xrd), ft-ir, bet nitrogen adsorption-desorption and chemical analysis techniques. vo2+/al-mcm-41 and vol2/al-mcm-41 were found to catalyze...

PCNP diphosphines, in conjunction with Cr(acac)3, are excellent ethylene oligomerisation catalysts high activity and selectivity towards both 1-hexene 1-octene formation.

The reaction of [Rh(μ-Cl)(cod)]2 with diimines, differing in their steric and electronic properties, diphenylphosphine oxide leads to the oxidative addition products, hydrido-phosphinito-Rh(III) complexes {Rh(PPh2OH)(PPh2O)(NN)(H)Cl} (1), stabilized by formation a hydrogen bonded phosphinous acid-phosphinito quasi-chelate [(PO⋅⋅⋅HOP)-κ2P]. Exchange hydride chloride afford {Rh(PPh2OH)(PPh2O)(NN)...

Abstract We report an organic luminescent small molecule, Bis(1-phenylisoquinoline) (acetylacetonate) iridium(III) or Ir(piq) 2 (acac), that can function as a stable and efficient hole selective contact (HSC) for crystalline silicon (c-Si) solar cells. The devices with the (acac) HSC exhibit superior charge transport properties high stability up to 30 days in air without packaging. photovoltaic...
