摘要:
Substitution reaction of fac-[(FeCN)-C-II()(2)(CO)(3)I] with triphenylphosphine (PPh3) produced mono phosphine substituted complex cis-cis-[Fe-II(CN)(2)(CO)(2)(PPh3)I]. Crystal structure of the product showed that carbonyl positioned trans-to iodide was replaced by PPh3. The substitution reaction was monitored by quantitative infrared spectroscopic method, and the rate law for the substitution reaction was determined to be rate = k[[Fe-II(CN)(2)(CO)(2)(PPh3)I]-][PPh3]. Transition state enthalpy and entropy changes were obtained from Eyring equation k = (k(B)T/h)exp(-Delta H-not equal/RT + Delta S-not equal/R) with Delta H-not equal = 119(4) kJ mol(-1) and Lambda S-not equal = 102(10) J mol(-1) K-1. Positive transition state entropy change suggests that the substitution reaction went through a dissociative pathway. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
