New ligands for gold : bonding mode and structural complex characterisation
(Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2008-12)
Novel gold(I) trithiophosphite complexes were synthesised by utilising the ligands P(SR)3 (R
= Me, Ph) and 1,2-bis(1,3,2-dithiaphospholan-2-ylthio)ethane (2L). Reaction with (tht)AuCl
or (tht)AuC6F5 readily yielded the ...
High resolution NMR studies concerning the solvation/hydration and coordination chemistry of Pt (II/IV) compounds
(Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2005-12)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Pt(JV) complexes with S, 0-donating aroylthioureas have been synthesized by oxidative addition of
elemental halogens to the Pt(JJ) precursors, leading to the first-reported crystal structures of Pt(JV) ...
Carbene ligand and complex design directed towards application in synthesis and homogeneous catalysis
(Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2008-12)
Alkylated acetonitrile that forms during the synthesis of the sulfonium salt, [(Me3)2(MeS)S][BF4], is
involved in the formation of new , -unsaturated Fischer-type carbene complexes from
(CO)5M=C(OMe)CH2Li (M = Cr, W). ...
A DFT study of the catalytic hydrocyanation of ethylene with nickel complexes
(Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2005-12)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: DFT calculations employing the B3LYP functional were done to investigate the mechanism for the Ni-catalyzed hydrocyanation of ethylene as proposed by Tolman. Although this reaction is an important industrial ...
