Chelating dithioethers are promising substances for solvent extraction as they form stable square-planar complexes with PdII. We have modified unsaturated dithioethers, which are known to coordinate PdII, and adapted them to the requirements of industrial practice. The ligands are analogues of 1,2-dithioethene with varying electron-withdrawing backbones and polar end-groups. The crystal structures of several ligands and their palladium complexes were determined as well as their electro- and photochemical properties, complex stability and behaviour in solution. Solvent extraction experiments showed the superiority of some of our ligands over conventionally used extractants in terms of their very fast reaction rates. With highly selective 1,2-bis(2-methoxyethylthio)benzene (4) it is possible to extract PdII from a highly acidic medium in the presence of other base and palladium-group metals.}, language = {en} } @article{BiermannMeierButteetal.2011, author = {Biermann, Ursula and Meier, Michael A.

The formed amount of interesting products of lower molecular weight during the ATMET reaction depends on the ratio of MA and triglyceride, reaction time, and temperature. We isolated the dimeric metathesis product 2 and synthesized the respective partially hydrogenated dimer 3 regioselectivly in a seven step reaction sequence starting from 10-undecenoic acid 7 and glycerol. Product 3 was unambiguously characterized by (13)C and (1)H NMR and MS as well as the further intermediate products of the seven step reaction including 10,11 bromo-undecanoic acid 8, the respective brominated 1,3-diglyceride 9, the brominated 1,3-triglyceride 6, and the self-metathesis products 4 and 5 which were isolated and purified.}, language = {en} }
