SYNTHESIS, PROPERTIES AND REACTION MECHANISMS OF PLATINUM METAL COMPOUNDS.

Abstract

Research on the chemistry of metals called noble or platinum metals is reviewed: (1) New Linkage Isomers. Making use of studies on the mechanism of formation of the Co(III) linkage isomers (NH3)5Co-ONO (2) (nitrito) and (NH3)5Co NO2 (2) (nitro), analogous isomers for Rh(III), Ir(III) and Pt(IV) were synthesized and studied. (2) Chloroamminerhodium(III) Complexes. Several new complexes of Rh(III) were prepared and kinet ic study made of their acid and base hydrolysis. (3) Carboxylatopentamminemetal(III) Complexes. Compounds of the type M(NH3)5(RCOO) (2),where MCo(III), Rh(III), Ir(III) and RCOO(-) CH3COO(-), (CH3)3CCOO(-), CF3COO(-), where syn thesized. Kinetic studies show that the rate of hydrolysis of these complexes is acid catalyzed. (4) (Acidoamminegold(III) Complexes. Solution chemistry of the new compounds Au(dien)X X (where dien NH2CH2CH2NHCH2CH2NH2 and X Cl(-), Br(-), I(-)) was investigated in some detail. (Author)
