Microwave-Assisted Synthesis of Coordination and Organometallic Compounds

“…Among fundamental generalizing publications on MW-fabricated metal carbonyls, we note a review on Group 6 metals, describing, in particular, metal carbonyls synthesis in a conventional MW-oven (Holder, 2005), and a report (Ardon et al, 2004) ], where dppe = 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane, pip = piperidine}. Also, mixed carbonyl-arene complexes are known; thus, the microwaveassisted synthesis of (η 6 -arene)tricarbonylchromium complexes from hexacarbonylchromium and arenes gave high yields of (η 6 -arene)chromium tricarbonyl complexes (Lee et al, 2006).…”
