Crystal Structure Of Tris(2-Hydroxyethyl)Ammonium Bromide, Veysel T. Yilmaz, Hasan İçbudak, Halis Ölmez, R. Alan Howie Jan 1996

Crystal Structure Of Tris(2-Hydroxyethyl)Ammonium Bromide, Veysel T. Yilmaz, Hasan İçbudak, Halis Ölmez, R. Alan Howie

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The crystal structure of tris(2-hydroxyethyl)ammonium bromide, [HN(CH_{2}CH_{2}OH)_{3}]Br, was determined as rhombohedral by single crystal X-ray diffractometer. The final R value was found to be 0.032 for 576 observed reflections. The crystal consists of layers of hydrogen-bonded cations, [HN(CH_{2}CH_{2}OH)_{3}]^{+} and anions, Br^{-}. Within a layer every cation donates and every anion accepts three hydrogen bonds. In the cation, trifurcated intramolecular hydrogen bonds are formed due to the surrounding of the hydrogen atom bonded to the N atom by the 2-hydroxyethyl groups.

Chelate Ring-Closure Kinetics Of Cr(Co)_5 (Dppm) Studied By ^{31}P-Nmr Spectroscopy, Saim Özkar, Ceyhan Kayran, Ayşin Tekkaya

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

^{31}P-NMR spectroscopy was used to study the kinetics of the chelate ring-closure reaction in CR(CO)_5 (DPPM) where DPPM is bis (diphenylphosphino) methane. DPPM is potentially a bidentate ligand, but in this complex it is coordinated to the transition metal in a monodentate fashion and therefore can undergo chelation. The thermal chelate ring-closure reaction was carried out in an NMR sample tube at a constant temperature and the course of the reaction was quantitatively followed by taking ^{31}P-NMR spectra in appropriate time intervals. Kinetic results have shown that the chelate ring-closure reaction of Cr(CO)_5 DPPM is of zero-order. Activation parameters were …
