The FT-IR and FT-Raman vibrational spectra of alpha-chlorotoluene have been recorded using Perkin-Elmer 180 spectrometer in the range 3600-10 cm(-1) in the solid phase. A detailed vibrational spectral analysis has been carried out and assignments of the observed fundamental bands

A new cobalt-catalysed reductive coupling of aryl halides with benzyl chlorides is reported; a variety of diarylmethanes can be prepared in good to excellent yields under mild reaction conditions using CoBr(2) as catalyst and Zn dust; this new cobalt-catalysed coupling

Nickel-catalyzed intermolecular benzylation and heterobenzylation of unactivated alkenes to provide functionalized allylbenzene derivatives are described. A wide range of both the benzyl chloride and alkene coupling partners are tolerated. In contrast to analogous palladium-catalyzed variants of this process, all reactions

α-diimine iron complexes have been suggested to catalyse polymerisation via two distinct pathways, depending on the spin state of the iron complex. Here, we study a typical complex of this family, (R'')[N,N]FeCl(2), with [N,N] = Cy-N=CR''-CR''=N-Cy (Cy = cyclohexyl, R''
