Dicobalt octacarbonyl is an organocobalt compound with composition Co 2 (CO) 8.This metal carbonyl is used as a reagent and catalyst in organometallic chemistry and organic synthesis, and is central to much known organocobalt chemistry.
The Boudouard reaction, named after Octave Leopold Boudouard, is the redox reaction of a chemical equilibrium mixture of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide at a given temperature. It is the disproportionation of carbon monoxide into carbon dioxide and graphite or its reverse: [1] 2CO ⇌ CO 2 + C
This reaction is generally carried out on small scale in the course of a complex natural product total synthesis, because although this reaction is very efficient at slightly elevated temperatures (e.g., 80 °C) when stoichiometric rhodium is used, catalyst turnover via extrusion of CO requires dissociation of a very stable rhodium carbonyl ...
In the case of dicobalt octacarbonyl or Co 2 (CO) 8 as a catalyst, pentan-3-one can arise from ethene and CO, in the absence of hydrogen. A proposed intermediate is the ethylene-propionyl species [CH 3 C(O)Co(CO) 3 (ethene)] which undergoes a migratory insertion to form [CH 3 COCH 2 CH 2 Co(CO) 3]. The required hydrogen arises from the water ...
Paul Sabatier (1854-1941) winner of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1912 and discoverer of the reaction in 1897. The Sabatier reaction or Sabatier process produces methane and water from a reaction of hydrogen with carbon dioxide at elevated temperatures (optimally 300–400 °C) and pressures (perhaps 3 MPa [1]) in the presence of a nickel catalyst.
This method is used to produce propionic acid from ethylene using nickel carbonyl as the catalyst: [2] The above reaction is also referred to as hydroxycarbonylation, in which case hydrocarboxylation refers to the same net converstion but using carbon dioxide in place of CO and H 2 in place of water: [8]
x with the aid of a catalyst into diatomic nitrogen (N 2), and water (H 2 O). A reductant, typically anhydrous ammonia (NH 3), aqueous ammonia (NH 4 OH), or a urea (CO(NH 2) 2) solution, is added to a stream of flue or exhaust gas and is reacted onto a catalyst. As the reaction drives toward completion, nitrogen (N 2), and carbon dioxide (CO
Transition metal carbon dioxide complexes undergo a variety of reactions. Metallacarboxylic acids protonate at oxygen and eventually convert to metal carbonyl complexes: [L n MCO 2] − + 2 H + → [L n MCO] + + H 2 O. This reaction is relevant to the potential catalytic conversion of CO 2 to fuels. [5]
