Rapid ligand substitution reactions in ionic liquids studied by stopped-flow technique

摘要

Detailed kinetic studies on ligand substitution reactions of [M~Ⅱ(terpy)Cl]~+ complexes (M = Pt, Pd; terpy = 2,2':6',2"-ter-pyridine) with thiourea as entering nucleophile were for the first time performed in the imidazolium based ionic liquid [emim][NTf_2] using stopped-flow techniques, opening the route to study fast reactions of transition metal complexes in ionic liquids.
