Heterocycle carbonyl pyrazolyl palladium(II) complexes :synthesis, ethylene oligomerisation and polymerisation catalysis
Ojwach, Stephen Otieno (University of the Western Cape, 2004)Reactions of furan, thiophene and alkyl carbonyl chlorides with Unsubstituted and substituted pyrazoles produced the desired pyrazolyl ligands, [R2pyrazole-CO-R/] (R= H, Me, tBu, Ph, R/ = furan, thiophene, Me or tBu) in ... -
Metal complexes based on monomeric and dendrimeric pyrrole-imine ligands as catalytic precursors
Mugo, Jane Ngima (University of the Western Cape, 2007)Over the recent past, organometallic chemistry has grown and the impact of catalytic applications in various chemical technologies has rapidly evolved from the realm of academic laboratories into full-scale industrial ... -
The preparation of binuclear and polynuclear methyl complexes of palladium as catalyst precursors in phenylacetylene polymerization
Sibanyoni, Johannes Mlandu (University of the Western Cape, 2007)This study focused on the development of binuclear and multinuclear catalyst for use in vinylic monomer oligomerization and polymerization. The main objective was to develop new homogeneous catalysts systems with hopefully ...
