- Weakly-coordinated stable platinum nanocrystals
-
Stable platinum nanocrystals with small diameters (1.0-2.3 nm), that are stable for a long time, with narrow size distributions were easily and reproducibly prepared without any additional stabilizers in glycol, glycerol, the ionic liquids (ILs) 1-n-butyl-3-methyl-imidazolium tetrafluoroborate [BMIm][BF4] and N-butyl-N-trimethyl-ammonium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide [N4111][NTf2] or diphenylmethane (CH2Ph2) by thermal, photolytic or microwave assisted decomposition of the organometallic precursor methylcyclopentadienyl-trimethylplatinum(iv), (MeCp)PtMe3. Decomposition of the easily dispensible, air and moisture stable organometallic Pt(iv) precursor (MeCp)PtMe3 leads to well defined, small, crystalline and longterm stable Pt-nanoparticle (Pt-NP) dispersions without any additional surface-capping ligands. The Pt-NP/IL dispersion was shown to be a highly active catalyst (TOF 96000 h-1 at 0.0125 mol% Pt and quantitative conversion) for the biphasic hydrosilylation of phenylacetylene with triethylsilane, to the distal and proximal products triethyl(2- and1-phenylvinyl)silane.

- Method for producing organometallic compounds
-
This invention relates to liquid cyclopentadienyltrimethylplatinum compounds selected from (isopropylcyclopentadienyl)trimethylplatinum and (tert-butylcyclopentadienyl)trimethylplatinum. This invention also relates to a process for producing a film, coating or powder by decomposing a cyclopentadienyltrimethylplatinum compound precursor selected from (isopropylcyclopentadienyl)trimethylplatinum and (tert-butylcyclopentadienyl)-trimethylplatinum, thereby producing the film, coating or powder. This invention further relates to a one pot method for producing an organometallic compound comprising reacting a metal source compound, an alkylating agent and a cyclopentadienyl compound under reaction conditions sufficient to produce said organometallic compound.
