Abstract:
The title compound, [Cr(C(26)H(26)P(2)Si)(CO)(4)], was obtained by the reaction of Ph(2)PSiMe(2)PPh(2) with Cr(CO)(6) in refluxing toluene by ligand exchange. The CrC(4)P(2) coordination geometry at the Cr atom is distorted octa-hedral, with a P-Cr-P bite angle of 80.27 (1)°.

β-Dicarbonyl Compounds via Crossed Claisen Condensations
Crossed Claisen condensations are base-promoted reactions between two different ester molecules producing β-dicarbonyl compounds. The reaction involving esters, with both containing α hydrogen, results in a mixture of four different products that are difficult to isolate. This reduces the synthetic utility of the reaction.
Radicals: Electronic Structure and Geometry
This lesson delves into the geometry of a radical, which is influenced by the electronic structure of the molecule. The principle is similar to that of a lone pair, where the unpaired electron influences the geometry at the radical center.
Accordingly, the structure of a trivalent radical lies between the geometries of carbocations and carbanions. An sp2-hybridized carbocation is trigonal planar, while an sp3-hybridized carbanion is trigonal pyramidal. Here, the difference in geometry is...
