Description/Abstract
Stopped-flow techniques of rapid mixing have been combined with energy dispersive X-ray absorption spectroscopy to monitor the reaction of Ni(dpm)(2) {dpm = (BuC)-C-t(O)CHC(O)Bu-t} by aluminium alkyls (AlEt2X, X = OEt and Et) to form the active species for the catalytic di- and tri-merisation of hex-1-ene. Acquisition times down to ca. 30 ms were achieved on Station 9.3 of the SRS using a photodiode array detector. The EXAFS features of the resulting solution complexes are of the form [Ni(O-O)(R) (alkene)]. In the presence of PPh3, [Ni(O-O)(R)(PPh3)] appears to be the predominant type of species. The reduction of aqueous Fe(III) by hydroquinone was investigated on ID24 at the ESRF by Fe K-edge energy dispersive EXAFS with a CCD camera as detector; spectra were obtained in 1 ms or longer. No intermediate inner sphere complex was detected prior to the formation of aqueous Fe(II). Finally the oxidative addition of CH3SO3CF3 to [IrI2(CO)(2)](-) was monitored on Station 9.3 with a silicon microstrip detector. A single acquisition of 400 mus was feasible, with spectra recorded in multiples of 1.2 ms. In that time, the first stage of the reaction had been completed, with a slower stage thereafter. The results are consistent with the two-stage ionic oxidative addition mechanism.
