Published: May 2005

Reactions of (eta5-C5Me4R)(CO)2(MeCN)WMe (R = Me, Et) with HPh2SiCCtBu gave the novel alkynyl-bridged W-Si complexes, (eta5-C5Me4R)(CO)2W(mu-eta1:eta2-CCtBu)(SiPh2) (R = Me, Et), whose alkynyl ligands bridge the tungsten and silicon atoms in an eta1:eta2-coordination mode. The structures of these complexes were fully characterized, including X-ray crystallography. Treatment of (eta5-C5Me5)(CO)2W(mu-eta1:eta2-CCtBu)(SiPh2) with acetone resulted in acetone insertion into the silicon-alkynyl linkage followed by intramolecular C-H activation of the tBu group to give the chelate-type alkyl-alkene complex, (eta5-C5Me5)(CO)2W(eta1:eta2-CH2CMe2C=CHSiPh2OCMe2).

An anomaly in martensitic transformation (the effect of martensitic two-peak splitting in the temperature-dependent thermal expansion coefficient) in complex alloyed 12% chromium steels Fe-12%Cr-Ni-Mo-W-Nb-V-B (ChS-139), Fe-12%Cr-Mo-W-Si-Nb-V (EP-823) and Fe-12%Cr-2%W-V-Ta-B (EK-181) was investigated in this study. This effect is manifested in steels with a higher degree of alloying (ChS-139). During varying temperature regimes in dilatometric analysis, it was found that the splitting of the martensitic peak was associated with the superposition of two martensitic transformations of austenite depleted and enriched with alloying elements.

Combining Isotope Dilution and Standard Addition-Elemental Analysis in Complex Samples.

April 2021

Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und-prüfung (BAM), Richard-Willstätter-Str.11, 12489 Berlin, Germany.

A new method combining isotope dilution mass spectrometry (IDMS) and standard addition has been developed to determine the mass fractions of different elements in complex matrices: (a) silicon in aqueous tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH), (b) sulfur in biodiesel fuel, and (c) iron bound to transferrin in human serum. All measurements were carried out using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The method requires the gravimetric preparation of several blends (b)-each consisting of roughly the same masses () of the sample solution (x) and of a spike solution (y) plus different masses () of a reference solution (z).

An Air-Stable Heterobimetallic Si M Tetrahedral Cluster.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl

March 2020

Department of Chemistry, Catalysis Research Center and Institute of Silicon Chemistry, Technical University Munich, Lichtenbergstraße 4, 85748, Garching bei München, Germany.

Air- and moisture-stable heterobimetallic tetrahedral clusters [Cp(CO) MSiR] (M=Mo or W; R=SitBu ) were isolated from the reaction of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) stabilized silyl(silylidene) metal complexes Cp(CO) M=Si(SitBu )NHC with a mild Lewis acid (BPh ). Alternatively, treatment of the NHC-stabilized silylidene complex Cp(CO) W=Si(SitBu )NHC with stronger Lewis acids such as AlCl or B(C F ) resulted in the reversible coordination of the Lewis acid to one of the carbonyl ligands. Computational investigations revealed that the dimerization of the intermediate metal silylidyne (M≡Si) complex to a tetrahedral cluster instead of a planar four-membered ring is due to steric bulk.

Complexes with weakly coordinating ligands are often formed in chemical reactions and can play key roles in determining the reactivity, particularly in catalytic reactions. Using time-resolved X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) spectroscopy in combination with time-resolved IR (TRIR) spectroscopy and tungsten hexacarbonyl, W(CO), we are able to structurally characterize the formation of an organometallic alkane complex, determine the W-C distances, and monitor the reactivity with silane to form an organometallic silane complex. Experiments in perfluorosolvents doped with xenon afford initially the corresponding solvated complex, which is sufficiently reactive in the presence of Xe that we can then observe the coordination of Xe to the metal center, providing a unique insight into the metal-xenon bonding.

Article Synopsis
  • - A tungsten silylyne complex reacted with aldehydes to form four-membered metallacycles through a [2+2] cycloaddition at room temperature.
  • - Heating these metallacycles to 70°C caused them to break apart and form carbyne complexes and silanoic esters, similar to reactions seen in alkyne metathesis.
  • - The silanoic ester could further react with pivalaldehyde, resulting in another high-yield cycloaddition product.
