Theoretical development of in situ optical particle separator: cross-type optical chromatography.

An in situ separation system, cross-type optical chromatography, is developed theoretically, and an analytic solution of the retention distance is derived. Particle trajectories in the cross-type optical chromatography are calculated for various sizes and materials of the particles and for flow velocities. Further, cross-type optical chromatography assisted by a particle beam generation system is designed.

Pi-bonded quinonoid transition-metal complexes.

Coordination of the carbocyclic ring of hydroquinones to electrophilic transition-metal fragments such as Mn(CO)3+ and Rh(COD)+ produces stable pi-bonded eta6-complexes that are activated to facile reversible deprotonation of the -OH groups. The deprotonations are accompanied by electron transfer to the transition metal, which acts as an internal oxidizing agent or electron sink. With manganese as the metal, the resulting eta5-semiquinone and eta4-quinone complexes have been used to synthesize one- two- and three-dimensional polymeric metal-organometallic coordination networks. With rhodium as the metal, the pi-quinonoid complexes have been demonstrated to play a unique role in multifunctional C-C coupling catalysis and in the synthesis of new organolithium reagents. Both classes of pi-quinonoid complexes appear to have significant applications in nanochemistry by providing an excellent vehicle for templating the directed self-assembly of nanoparticles into functional materials.

An anionic rhodium eta4-quinonoid complex as a multifunctional catalyst for the arylation of aldehydes with arylboronic acids.

The pi-bonded rhodium quinonoid complex, K+[(1,4-benzoquinone)Rh(COD)]-, functions as a good catalyst for the coupling of arylboronic acid and aldehydes to afford diaryl alcohols. The catalysis is heterobimetallic in that both the transition metal and concomitant alkali metal counterion play an integral part in the reaction. In addition, the anionic quinonoid catalyst itself plays a bifunctional role by acting as a ligand to the boronic acid and as a Lewis acid receptor site for the transferring aryl group.
