Abstract
En pålitlig, mellan skala framställning av 1,2,3,4,5-pentamethylcyclopentadiene (Cp * H) presenteras, baserade på ändringar av befintliga protokoll som härrör från den första 2-bromo-2-buten litiering följt av syra-medierad dienol cyklisering . Den reviderade syntes och rening av liganden undviker användningen av mekanisk omrörning medan de låter tillgång till signifikanta mängder (39 g) av Cp * H i gott utbyte (58%). Förfarandet ger ytterligare andra fördelar, bland annat en mer kontrollerad släcka av överskott litium under framställningen av mellan heptadienols och en förenklad isolering av Cp * H med tillräcklig renhet för metallisering med övergångsmetaller. Liganden användes därefter för att syntetisera [Cp * MCI 2] 2-komplex av både iridium och rutenium att demonstrera användbarheten av Cp * H framställes och renas enligt vår metod. Det förfarande som beskrivs häri ger väsentliga mängder av en allmänt förekommande underordnad ligand support som används i metallorganisk kemi och samtidigt minimera behovet av specialiserad laboratorieutrustning, vilket ger en enklare och mer lättillgänglig ingångspunkt i kemi 1,2,3,4,5-pentamethylcyclopentadiene.
