Resumen
Los polímeros de cobaltocenio muestran escisión selectiva de la cadena principal bajo fuerza, a diferencia de sus contrapartes de ferroceno. Los counteriones facilitan un mecanismo de disociación único, lo que permite nuevas aplicaciones mecanoquímicas para estos compuestos organometálicos robustos.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Química de los polímeros
- Química organometálica
- Mecanoquímica
Sus antecedentes:
- Los mecanóforos de metalloceno son conocidos por su estabilidad térmica y química.
- Su respuesta a la fuerza es un área de investigación activa.
- Los compuestos de cobaltocenio, aunque isoelectrónicos al ferroceno, presentan desafíos de estabilidad.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Investigar la mecanoquímica de las cadenas principales de polímeros que contienen cobaltocenio.
- Para superar los problemas de estabilidad en los derivados de cobaltocenio para estudios mecanicos.
- Para dilucidar el mecanismo de disociación inducida por la fuerza de los mecanóforos de cobaltocenio.
Principales métodos:

- Cálculos computacionales, específicamente CoGEF (Campo de fuerza computacional generalizado).
- Síntesis y caracterización de polímeros modificados de cobaltocenio.
Principales resultados:
- Los cobaltocenos ligados al éster eran inestables; los enlaces C-alquilo conferían la estabilidad necesaria.
- Los mecanóforos de cobaltocenio se someten a una escisión selectiva de la cadena principal bajo la fuerza sonomecánica.

Color in Coordination Complexes
When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human...

Coordination compounds and complexes exhibit different colors, geometries, and magnetic behavior, depending on the metal atom/ion and ligands from which they are composed. In an attempt to explain the bonding and structure of coordination complexes, Linus Pauling proposed the valence bond theory, or VBT, using the concepts of hybridization and the overlapping of the atomic orbitals. According to VBT, the central metal atom or ion (Lewis acid) hybridizes to provide empty orbitals of suitable...

The hemoglobin in the blood, the chlorophyll in green plants, vitamin B-12, and the catalyst used in the manufacture of polyethylene all contain coordination compounds. Ions of the metals, especially the transition metals, are likely to form complexes.
In these complexes, transition metals form coordinate covalent bonds, a kind of Lewis acid-base interaction in which both of the electrons in the bond are contributed by a donor (Lewis base) to an electron acceptor (Lewis acid). The Lewis acid in...

Crystal Field Theory
To explain the observed behavior of transition metal complexes (such as colors), a model involving electrostatic interactions between the electrons from the ligands and the electrons in the unhybridized d orbitals of the central metal atom has been developed. This electrostatic model is crystal field theory (CFT). It helps to understand, interpret, and predict the colors, magnetic behavior, and some structures of coordination compounds of transition metals.

Isomerism in Complexes
Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula. Structural isomerism of coordination compounds can be divided into two subcategories, the linkage isomers and coordination-sphere isomers.
Linkage isomers occur when the coordination compound contains a ligand that can bind to the transition metal center through two different atoms. For example, the CN− ligand can bind through the carbon atom or through the nitrogen atom. Similarly, SCN− can...

In most main group element compounds, the valence electrons of the isolated atoms combine to form chemical bonds that satisfy the octet rule. For instance, the four valence electrons of carbon overlap with electrons from four hydrogen atoms to form CH4. The one valence electron leaves sodium and adds to the seven valence electrons of chlorine to form the ionic formula unit NaCl (Figure 1a). Transition metals do not normally bond in this fashion. They primarily form coordinate covalent bonds, a...
