[Rh(CO)2Cl] 2 reacts with 1,3-diphenylcyclopentadienyl sodium or tetraphenylcyclopentadienyl sodium with formation of (l,3-P h2C5H3)Rh(CO ) 2 (1) or (C5HPh4)Rh(CO )2 (2), respectively. The reaction of 1 or 2 with PPh3 yields the corresponding carbonyl(cyclopentadienyl)(triphenylphosphane)rhodium complexes (l,3 -P h 2C5H3)Rh(CO)(PPh3) (3) or (C5HPh4)Rh(CO)(PPh3) (4). The 'H and ' C reported and ...

the difficult to handle and store zinc borohydride, zn(bh4)2, is stabilized by supporting it on polyvinylpyridine. this new mild, efficient, selective, and regenerable polymer supported borohydride reducing agent reduces a variety organic compounds such as, aldehydes, a-b-unsaturated carbonyl compounds, acid chlorides, epoxides, disulfides, as well as reductive acetylation of carbonyl compounds...

infrared spectra of some deuterio analogues of carboxylic acids in heavy water have been investigated and their spectral behavior in carbonyl stretching frequency region have been interpreted in terms of their structural behavior in aqueous solutions. it has been shown that a linear relationship exists between carbonyl stretching frequency of solvated acids at infinite dilution and their pk s .

Carbonyl-carbonyl (C=O···C'=O') interactions are ubiquitous in both small and large molecular systems. This interaction involves delocalization of a lone pair (n) of a donor oxygen into the antibonding orbital (π*) of an acceptor carbonyl group. Analyses of high-resolution protein structures suggest that these carbonyl-carbonyl interactions prefer to occur in pairs, that is, one donor per accep...
