Nemykin VN, Laskin J, Basu P: Isolation, characterization of an intermediate in an oxygen atom-transfer reaction, and the determination of the bond dissociation energy. J Am Chem Soc. 2004 Jul 21;126(28):8604-5.
The synthesis and structure of a phosphine oxide-bound intermediate molecule originating from a dioxo-molybdenum (VI) complex is described. The loss of phosphine oxide has been followed by surface-induced dissociation mass spectrometry that gave the bond dissociation energy of 29.5 (+/- 3.5) kcal/mol. Considering the bond dissociation energy for a Mo=O bond to be 100 kcal/mol, this value suggests that the primary driving force for the reaction is the formation of the intermediate complex. |
