Osmium Pentacarbonyl
Osmium pentacarbonyl is the organoosmium compound with the formula Os(CO)5. It is the simplest isolatable carbonyl complex Metal carbonyls are coordination complexes of transition metals with carbon monoxide ligands. Metal carbonyls are useful in organic synthesis and as catalysts or catalyst precursors in homogeneous catalysis, such as hydroformylation and Reppe ch ... of osmium. Osmium pentacarbonyl is a colorless volatile liquid that is obtained by treating solid triosmium dodecacarbonyl under 200 atmospheres of carbon monoxide at 280-290 °C. In contrast, also at 200 atm of CO, solid Ru3(CO)12 converts to Ru(CO)5 at milder temperature of 160 °C. Reactions Samples of Os(CO)5 convert back to the trioosmium cluster upon heating to 80 °C. The analogous conversion of Ru(CO)5 back to Ru3(CO)12 occurs at room temperature. Chlorination of the pentacarbonyl gives a cationic pentacarbonyl complex: :Os(CO)5 + Cl2 → s(CO)5Clsup>+Cl− Upon UV irradiat ...

Organoosmium Compound
Organoruthenium chemistry is the chemistry of organometallic compounds containing a carbon to ruthenium chemical bond. Several organoruthenium catalysts are of commercial interest and organoruthenium compounds have been considered for cancer therapy. The chemistry has some stoichiometric similarities with organoiron chemistry, as iron is directly above ruthenium in group 8 of the periodic table. The most important reagents for the introduction of ruthenium are ruthenium(III) chloride and triruthenium dodecacarbonyl. In its organometallic compounds, ruthenium is known to adopt oxidation states from -2 ( u(CO)4sup>2−) to +6 ( uN(Me)4sup>−). Most common are those in the 2+ oxidation state, as illustrated below.

Carbonyl Complex
Metal carbonyls are coordination complexes of transition metals with carbon monoxide ligands. Metal carbonyls are useful in organic synthesis and as catalysts or catalyst precursors in homogeneous catalysis, such as hydroformylation and Reppe chemistry. In the Mond process, nickel tetracarbonyl is used to produce pure nickel. In organometallic chemistry, metal carbonyls serve as precursors for the preparation of other organometallic complexes. Metal carbonyls are toxic by skin contact, inhalation or ingestion, in part because of their ability to carbonylate hemoglobin to give carboxyhemoglobin, which prevents the binding of oxygen. Nomenclature and terminology The nomenclature of the metal carbonyls depends on the charge of the complex, the number and type of central atoms, and the number and type of ligands and their binding modes. They occur as neutral complexes, as positively-charged metal carbonyl cations or as negatively charged metal carbonylates. The carbon monoxide liga ...

Triosmium Dodecacarbonyl
Triosmium dodecacarbonyl is a chemical compound with the formula Os3(CO)12. This yellow-colored metal carbonyl cluster is an important precursor to organo-osmium compounds. Many of the advances in cluster chemistry have arisen from studies on derivatives of Os3(CO)12 and its lighter analogue Ru3(CO)12. Structure and synthesis The cluster has D3h symmetry, consisting of an equilateral triangle of Os atoms, each of which bears two axial and two equatorial CO ligands. Each of the three osmium centers has an octahederal structure with four CO ligands and the other two osmium atoms. The Os–Os bond distance is 2.88 Â (288 pm). Ru3(CO)12 has the same structure, whereas Fe3(CO)12 is different, with two bridging CO ligands resulting in C2v symmetry. Os3(CO)12 is prepared by the direct reaction of OsO4 with carbon monoxide at 175 °C under high pressures: : 3 OsO4 + 24 CO → Os3(CO)12 + 12 CO2 The yield is nearly quantitative. Reactions The chemical properties of O ...

Carbon Monoxide
Carbon monoxide (chemical formula CO) is a colorless, poisonous, odorless, tasteless, flammable gas that is slightly less dense than air. Carbon monoxide consists of one carbon atom and one oxygen atom connected by a triple bond. It is the simplest molecule of the oxocarbon family. In coordination complexes the carbon monoxide ligand is called carbonyl. It is a key ingredient in many processes in industrial chemistry. The most common source of carbon monoxide is the partial combustion of carbon-containing compounds, when insufficient oxygen or heat is present to produce carbon dioxide. There are also numerous environmental and biological sources that generate and emit a significant amount of carbon monoxide. It is important in the production of many compounds, including drugs, fragrances, and fuels. Upon emission into the atmosphere, carbon monoxide affects several processes that contribute to climate change. Carbon monoxide has important biological roles across phylogenetic ...

Triruthenium Dodecacarbonyl
Triruthenium dodecacarbonyl is the chemical compound with the formula Ru3(CO)12. Classified as metal carbonyl cluster, it is a dark orange-colored solid that is soluble in nonpolar organic solvents. The compound serves as a precursor to other organoruthenium compounds. Structure and synthesis The cluster has ''D3h'' symmetry, consisting of an equilateral triangle of Ru atoms, each of which bears two axial and two equatorial CO ligands. Os3(CO)12 has the same structure, whereas Fe3(CO)12 is different, with two bridging CO ligands, resulting in C2v symmetry. Ru3(CO)12 is prepared by treating solutions of ruthenium trichloride with carbon monoxide in the presence of a base. Dichlororuthenium tricarbonyl dimer is an intermediate. The stoichiometry of the reaction is uncertain, one possibility being the following: :6 RuCl3 + 33 CO + 18 CH3OH → 2 Ru3(CO)12 + 9 CO(OCH3)2 + 18 HCl Reactions The chemical properties of Ru3(CO)12 have been widely studied, and the cluster ...

Ruthenium Pentacarbonyl
Ruthenium pentacarbonyl is the organoruthenium compound with the formula Ru(CO)5. It is a colorless, light-sensitive liquid that readily decarbonylates upon standing at room temperature. It is of academic interest as an intermediate for the synthesis of metal carbonyl complexes. Preparation Ru(CO)5 was originally prepared by carbonylation of ruthenium salts in the presence of a reducing agent.W. Manchot, Wilhelm J. Manchot "Darstellung von Rutheniumcarbonylen und -nitrosylen" Zeitschrift für Anorganische und Allgemeine Chemie 1936, volume 226, pp. 385-415. A more recent preparation involves photolysis Photodissociation, photolysis, photodecomposition, or photofragmentation is a chemical reaction in which molecules of a chemical compound are broken down by photons. It is defined as the interaction of one or more photons with one target molecule. ... of triruthenium dodecacarbonyl in the presence of carbon monoxide:Adams, R. D.; Barnard, T. S.; Cortopassi, J.

Os2(CO)9
OS/2 (Operating System/2) is a series of computer operating systems, initially created by Microsoft and IBM under the leadership of IBM software designer Ed Iacobucci. As a result of a feud between the two companies over how to position OS/2 relative to Microsoft's new Windows 3.1 operating environment, the two companies severed the relationship in 1992 and OS/2 development fell to IBM exclusively. The name stands for "Operating System/2", because it was introduced as part of the same generation change release as IBM's "IBM Personal System/2, Personal System/2 (PS/2)" line of second-generation personal computers. The first version of OS/2 was released in December 1987 and newer versions were released until December 2001. OS/2 was intended as a protected mode, protected-mode successor of IBM PC DOS, PC DOS. Notably, basic system calls were modeled after MS-DOS calls; their names even started with "Dos" and it was possible to create "Family Mode" applications – text mode ap ...
