  2. Organoiron chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organoiron_chemistry

    Organoiron chemistry is the chemistry of iron compounds containing a carbon-to-iron chemical bond. [1] [2] Organoiron compounds are relevant in organic synthesis as reagents such as iron pentacarbonyl, diiron nonacarbonyl and disodium tetracarbonylferrate.

  3. Iron compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_compounds

    Iron shows the characteristic chemical properties of the transition metals, namely the ability to form variable oxidation states differing by steps of one and a very large coordination and organometallic chemistry: indeed, it was the discovery of an iron compound, ferrocene, that revolutionalized the latter field in the 1950s. [1]

  4. Fenton's reagent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fenton's_reagent

    Transition-metal ions such as iron and copper can donate or accept free electrons via intracellular reactions and so contribute to the formation, or at the contrary to the scavenging, of free radicals. Superoxide ions and transition metals act in a synergistic way in the appearance of free radical damages. [18]

  5. Aluminothermic reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminothermic_reaction

    Aluminothermic reactions are exothermic chemical reactions using aluminium as the reducing agent at high temperature. The process is industrially useful for production of alloys of iron. [1] The most prominent example is the thermite reaction between iron oxides and aluminium to produce iron itself: Fe 2 O 3 + 2 Al → 2 Fe + Al 2 O 3

  6. Lewis acid catalysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_Acid_Catalysis

    The first reaction shown below, from the synthesis of taxane skeleton, uses a copper-based catalyst supported by a chiral phosphoramidite ligand for a conjugate carbonyl addition reaction. [64] The second reaction, from the synthesis of ent-hyperforin, uses an iron-PyBOX catalyst for an asymmetric Diels-Alder reaction. [65]

  7. Organometallic chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organometallic_chemistry

    A steel bottle containing MgCp 2 (magnesium bis-cyclopentadienyl), which, like several other organometallic compounds, is pyrophoric in air.. Organometallic compounds are distinguished by the prefix "organo-" (e.g., organopalladium compounds), and include all compounds which contain a bond between a metal atom and a carbon atom of an organyl group. [2]

  8. Metal carbonyl - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_carbonyl

    The iron pentacarbonyl was used for the production of high-purity iron, so-called carbonyl iron, and iron oxide pigment. [40] Not until 1927 did A. Job and A. Cassal succeed in the preparation of chromium hexacarbonyl and tungsten hexacarbonyl, the first synthesis of other homoleptic metal carbonyls. [citation needed]

  9. Chemical synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_synthesis

    Medicine: Organic synthesis plays a vital role in drug discovery, allowing chemists to develop and optimize new drugs by modifying organic molecules. [9] Additionally, the synthesis of metal complexes for medical imaging and cancer treatments is a key application of chemical synthesis, enabling advanced diagnostic and therapeutic techniques. [10]
