Deposited palladium catalysts
Semler, Miloslav ; Štěpnička, Petr (advisor) ; Balcar, Hynek (referee) ; Bulánek, Roman (referee)
Palladium catalysts are frequently used in C-C coupling reactions. The aim of this work is to prepare several heterogeneous palladium catalysts from comercially available silica gel, each with different bifunctional ligand deposited on the surface of silica gel by N-propylamide linking group, and their testing on several C-C coupling reactions (Heck reaction, reaction of acyl chlorides with boronic acids and reaction of acyl chlorides with terminal acetylenes). Some other aspects of heterogeneous catalysis (such as palladium leaching into the reaction mixture and possibility of catalyst reuse) are discussed, too. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Škoch, Karel ; Štěpnička, Petr (advisor) ; Veselý, Jan (referee)
6 Title: Sythesis and catalytic properties of ferrocenophane phosphines Author: Karel Škoch Institution: Faculty of Science, Charles University in Prague, Department of Inorganic Chemistry Supervisor: prof. RNDr. Petr Štěpnička, Ph.D. Keywords: ferrocene, ferrocenophane, phosphine ligands, palladium, asymetric catalysis, aza- Morita-Baylis-Hillman reaction, asymetric allylic alkylation Abstract: This Thesis describes the preparation of five sterically and electronically different ferrocene phosphines, (R)-1,1'-[1-(diarylphosphino)propan-1,3-diyl]ferrocenes (R)-1a-e, and a study into their coordination and catalytic properties. The key precursor of the phosphine synthesis, chiral alcohol (R)-2, was prepared according to the procedure described in the literature. Alcohol (R)-2 was converted with retention of configuration to diarylphosphines (R)-1a-e in one-step reaction with trimethylsilylchloride and sodium iodide and then with the corresponding diarylphosphine. Phosphines 1a-e were characterized by NMR and MS methods. For the basic representative 1a the following palladium(II) complexes were prepared: [PdCl(LNC )(1a)] (10, LNC = 2-[(dimethylamino)methyl]phenyl-C1 ,N) and trans- [PdCl2(1a)2] (9a). In addition, the isomeric complex cis-[PdCl2(1a)2] (9b) was isolated from the reaction mixture after catalytic...

Study of hydrogen interaction with defects in thin metallic films
Hruška, Petr ; Čížek, Jakub (advisor) ; Krsjak, Vladimír (referee) ; Mathis, Kristián (referee)
Thin metallic films are particularly interesting as potential hydrogen storage materials as well as hydrogen sensitive optical sensors. Thin films with various microstructure from nanocrystalline to epitaxial can be relatively easily prepared by varying the deposition parameters. Deposition of multi-layers enables preparation of thin films with arbitrary composition. Defects structure plays a key role in hydrogen absorption. Hydrogen atoms segregated at open volume defects reduce their formation energy leading to enhan- ced concentration of hydrogen-induced defects in the material. Moreover hydrogen diffusion along dislocations and grain boundaries facilitates hydrogen absorption in the metal lattice. Thin films clamped to the stiff substrate undergo anisotropic volume expansion during the hydrogen loading. As a consequence high stresses are induced in the film and can result in detachment of the film from the substrate. In this work hydrogen absorption in Gd and Pd films and Pd-Mg multi-layers was studied. Development of the defect structure of hydrogen-loaded films was investigated by means of variable energy positron annihilation spectroscopy com- bined with X-ray diffraction, atomic force microscopy and optical transmittance measurement. Complementary studies of interaction of hydrogen with defects in...

Generation of volatile species of palladium for atomic absorption spectrometry
Vyhnanovský, Jaromír ; Musil, Stanislav (advisor) ; Matoušek, Tomáš (referee)
This thesis deals with optimization of the conditions for chemical generation of volatile species of palladium in combination with atomic absorption spectrometry. The volatile species of palladium were generated in a flow injection system by the reaction of an acidified sample with the solution of sodium borohydride in the presence of reaction modifiers. A diffusion flame atomizer was used due to its high robustness. In the first part of this thesis the optimization of parameters affecting the atomization in the diffusion flame was carried out (flow rates and composition of gases, observation height). In the second part, concentrations of individual reagents used (nitric acid, sodium borohydride, Triton X-100, Antifoam B, sodium diethyldithiocarbamate) were optimized. The positive effect of the reaction modifiers was demonstrated, especially that of sodium diethyldithiocarbamate, which lead to a tenfold increase in the sensitivity. The limits of detection and limits of quantification for the wavelength 244,8 nm were 0,25 mg dm-3 and 0,67 mg dm-3, respectively. The repeatability for this method for the concentration 5 mg dm-3 was 2,8 %. Key words: palladium, chemical generation of volatile species, atomic absorption spectrometry

Study of the structural properties of model ceria based catalysts
Beran, Jan
This work is concerning the study of model ceria based calalysts structure by methods of electron diffraction RHEED and photoelectron spectroscopy XPS. The influence of deposition conditions and substrate on the growth of epitaxial cerium oxide films on copper single crystals is described in detail. The work then describes the interaction of cerium and tin in model systems and the creation of SnCeOx mixed oxide and its structure. In the last chapter, the interaction of palladium with cerium and tin oxide layers is examined, and the creation of paladium bimetallic alloys is described. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Phosphinoferrocene amides and hydrazides
Solařová, Hana
Title: Phosphinoferrocene amides and hydrazides Author: Hana Solařová Department: Department of Inorganic Chemistry Supervisor: doc. RNDr. Petr Štěpnička, Ph.D. Abstract: While studying functionalized phosphinoferrocene ligands, we recently turned to phosphinoferrocene carboxamides. These donors already proved to be versatile ligands for coordination chemistry and catalysis. This led us to synthesize and study the archetypal representative, 1'-(diphenylphosphino)-1-carbamoylferrocene (5), and the corresponding hydrazide 6. PPh2 COOH Fe Hdpf PPh2 CONH2 Fe 5 PPh2 CONHNH2 Fe 6 This work describes the preparation of primary amide 5 and hydrazide 6 from 1'- (diphenylphosphino)-1-ferrocenecarboxylic acid (Hdpf) via the corresponding acylbenzo- triazole derivative. The hydrazide was alternatively obtained from Hdpf methylester and hydrazine hydrate. Both newly synthesized compounds were characterized by spectroscopic methods (NMR, IR, and MS) and elemental analysis, and their crystal structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. The amide was further utilized in the preparation of several palladium complexes, which were characterized in a similar manner including X-ray crystallography. One palladium complex was obtained also from the hydrazide. However, the hydrazide was used mainly as a...

Light platinum group metal complexes with a ferrocene N-phosphinoamide
Navrátil, Michal
Title: Light platinum group metal complexes with a ferrocene N-phosphinoamide Author: Bc. Michal Navrátil Department: Department of Inorganic chemistry Supervisor: prof. RNDr. Petr Štěpnička, Ph.D., DSc. Abstract: The aim of this diploma thesis is the preparation of coordination compounds containing ferrocene phosphinoamide FcCONHPPh2 (1, Fc = ferrocenyl), whose preparation was discussed in author's bachelor thesis. Twelve new complexes are described in this thesis, including their characterisation by NMR and infrared spectroscopy, elemental analysis and mass spectrometry. In all cases the crystal structure was determined. Two palladium(II), one rhodium(III) and one ruthenium(II) precursors were used for the preparation of the complexes with each providing three new compounds. A reaction of the precursors with phosphinoamide 1 yielded complexes, in which the phosphinoamide was P-coordinated. This compound was a precursor for the other two complexes. The first one was obtained by a reaction with silver(I) perchlorate producing a cationic P,O-chelate. The other was obtained by a reaction with potassium tert-butoxide resulting in neutral P,O- chelate. All twelve complexes were prepared with optimised yields. Keywords: ferrocene, amides, phosphines, palladium, rhodium, ruthenium, structure elucidation.
