The application of novel multinuclear catalysts derived from dendrimeric ligands in the polymerization and oligomerization of unsaturated hydrocarbons
Malgas, Rehana (University of the Western Cape, 2007)G1 and G2 dendrimeric salicylaldimine ligands containing both substituted and unsubstituted aryl rings were synthesized via a Schiff base condensation of the appropriate salicylaldehyde and the peripheral amino groups of ... -
Development of new dendritic ligands for copper mediated Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization (ATRP) of methyl methacrylate
Moni, Lucky (University of the Western Cape, 2007)A variety of nitrogen based dendritic ligands have been synthesized and used in copper mediated Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization (ATRP) of MMA. These ligands were derived from the commercially available Generation 1 ... -
Immobilized catalysts for alkene oxidation
Malumbazo, Nandi (University of the Western Cape, 2007)Tertiary butyl substituted and unsubstituted Schiff base systems containing N,O donor ligands (Salicylaldimines) with aminotriethoxysilane tail were synthesized and complexed to Copper and Cobalt acetate. The ligands were ... -
An investigation into the synthesis, characterisation and some applications of novel metal-containing polymers and dendrimers of transition metals
Smith, Gregory Stuart (University of the Western Cape, 2003)metal-containing complexes, that exhibit enhanced chemical and physical properties. This thesis describes the synthesis of new metal-containing linear polymers and dendritic molecules. Chapter 1 presents an overview of ... -
The synthesis of the cyclometallated palladium complexes and their applications in olefin oligomerization and in phenylacetylene oligomerization/polymerization
Mungwe, Nothando Wandile (2007)This thesis reports the synthesis of the imine ligands from Schiff base condensation reaction of aldehyde derivatives and equimolar quantities of aniline derivatives. The imine ligands spectrometry. -
The synthesis, characterization and reactivity of some mononuclear hydrocarbyl compounds of iron
Joorst, Genevieve (University of the Western Cape, 1997)Mononuclear hydrocarbyl compounds of the type LnM(CH2)nCH:CH2 (L"M : Cp*Fe(CO)2 and CpFe(CO)2, n: 2-4,6), Cp(CO)zFe(CH2)nOH (n : 4-6,8) and Cp*(CO)2Fe(CH2)+OH have been synthesized. All these compounds have been l3 fully ...
