In this project funded by the Inorganic, Bioinorganic, and                      Organometallic Chemistry Program, Fred Basolo of Northwestern                   University will investigate the factors that affect the rates                   of ligand substitution in organometallic compounds. A great                     need exists to know as much as possible about the fundamental                   and quantitative aspects of the rates and mechanisms of these                   reactions, which are an essential step in all homogeneous                       catalytic cycles making use of organometallic compounds as                      catalysts.                                                                                                                                                      The project will include the synthesis and detailed kinetic and                 mechanistic studies of several series of compounds including                    the following general types: the metal nitrosyl carbonyls of                    chromium, molybdenum and tungsten; "open" pentadienyl complexes                 of the same metals; pi-heteroatom metal carbonyls of cobalt,                    rhodium and iridium; the early transition cyclopentadienyl                      metal carbonyls of vanadium, niobium and tantalum; and metal                    sulfur dioxide complexes of, for example, molybdenum.
