Multiple pathways in the oxidation of cis-stilbene by iron-bleomycin.

TLDR: In this article, a systematic study is presented to quantitate this trend by the solid-state N M R method described here, which should prove to be a powerful tool for studying the structure and fluxional behavior of this interesting class of compounds.

Abstract: Pr)3)2 by neutron diffraction,]' 0.890 A for H2-W(C0)3(PCy3)2 reported here by NMR, and 0.89 A for trans-[Fe(q2-H2)(H)( d ~ p e ) ~ ] B F , by X-ray.3 The latter distance is likely to be in error on the low side as X-ray diffraction will tend to underestimate the distance between the nuclei. A systematic study is currently under way to quantitate this trend by the solid-state N M R method described here. In conclusion dynamic solid-state N M R studies as described here should prove to be a powerful tool for studying the structure and fluxional behavior of this interesting class of compounds.
