Kim E. Mooney , Ashfaq A. BengaliJournal of Chemical Education2003 80 (9), 1044Synthesis, Kinetics, and Thermodynamics: An Advanced Laboratory Investigation of the Cis-Trans Isomerization of Mo(CO)4(PR3)2
Kim E. Mooney , Ashfaq A. BengaliJournal of Chemical Education2003 80 (9), 1044An advanced laboratory experiment that requires students to thoroughly investigate the kinetics, thermodynamics, and the mechanism of the cis–trans isomerization of Mo(CO)4(PR3)2 (R = Et, n-butyl) is presented. The students synthesize the cis complex and ...

Determination of the Regiochemistry of Disubstituted Arenes Generated by Addition of a Carbanion to the (η6-Anisole)Cr(CO)3 Complex
Ashfaq A. Bengali , Cindy Samet and Samantha B. CharltonJournal of Chemical Education2001 78 (1), 68Determination of the Regiochemistry of Disubstituted Arenes Generated by Addition of a Carbanion to the (η6-Anisole)Cr(CO)3 Complex
Ashfaq A. Bengali , Cindy Samet and Samantha B. CharltonJournal of Chemical Education2001 78 (1), 68It has become increasingly important to demonstrate to undergraduates that chemistry is not many separate subfields, but rather a set of interconnected concepts. We describe a laboratory activity that integrates fundamental concepts of organic and ...
