Popis: |
The photochemistry of (μ2-CRCR')Co2(CO)6 complexes (R = pyrenyl, R' = H; R = pyrenyl, R' = ferrocenyl; R = ferrocenyl, R = H) was investigated by ps-time-resolved infrared spectroscopy at room temperature in dichloromethane solution. The main focus of these studies was to determine the primary photoprocess relevant to the light assisted Pauson-Khand reaction. These studies were supported by spectro-electrochemical investigations and density functional calculations which suggest that the primary process to initiate the Pauson-Khand reaction involves a homolytic cleavage of the Co-Co bond forming a high-spin diradical species and not CO-loss as previously thought. |
