Abstract
AbstractA copolymer (PC‐1) was synthesized from a mixture of 1,2‐and 1,3‐isomers of tricarbonyl‐(methylvinylcyclopentadienyl)manganese (1) and styrene (St) crosslinked with 1,4‐divinylbenzene, and a membrane (PM–1) consisting of the 1/St copolymer. A polymer‐supported dinitrogen complex (PC‐4) was prepared from the tetrahydrofuran (THF) complex of PC‐1 and molecular nitrogen in a solid‐gas phase reaction under moderate conditions. The dinitrogen complex membrane (PM–4) was readily obtained directly from PM‐1 by a “one‐step reaction” on UV light irradiation under normal pressure of nitrogen at room temperature. A prominent feature of polymer‐supported dinitrogen complexes, PC‐4 and PM‐4, is their high stability as compared with the corresponding low molecular weight analogues. The coordinated nitrogen can be substituted by carbon monoxide in a PC‐4/THF mixture. The mechanism of nitrogen co‐ordination to PC‐1 and PM‐1 was investigated by means of IR and/or absorption spectrometry.
