Kinetics of anionic polymerization of β‐myrcene in hydrocarbon solvents
The process of anionic polymerization of β‐myrcene in hydrocarbon solvents was examined by kinetic studies and quantum chemical calculations. Abstract The kinetics of anionic polymerization of β‐myrcene initiated by sec‐butyllithium were examined in saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbon solvents, i.e. cyclohexane, cyclohexene, 4‐vinylcyclohexene and dl‐

Ba[C(CN)3]2 and Pb[C(CN)3]2: Two Remarkably Different Heavy Main‐Group Metal Bistricyanomethanides
Metathesis reactions of either barium dichloride, BaCl2, or lead dichloride, PbCl2, respectively, with Ag[C(CN)3] in water yielded single crystals of anhydrous Ba[C(CN)3]2 and Pb[C(CN)3]2. Ba[C(CN)3]2 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/n (no. 14) with the lattice parameters a = 437.98(3) pm, b = 1685.36(11) pm, c = 1398.87(9) pm, β = 96.541(

A cyclometalallated palladium complex and its acetate‐bridged dinuclear analogue, both supported by 1,3‐bis(2‐quinolinyl)benzene ligands, are described. The mononuclear (but not the dinuclear) complex is weakly phosphorescent in the deep red region of the spectrum in solution at room temperature, and both compounds phosphoresce in frozen media at 77 K ...
