Abstract

Mixtures of dimethylcadmium (Me2Cd) and propylene sulfide have been examined in the gas and liquid phases over a range of temperatures. No interaction is observed between Me2Cd and propylene sulfide in a 1:1 molar ratio at room temperature in the gas or liquid phases, although a weak interaction is detected in the solid phase at liquid-nitrogen temperature. On heating the 1:1 mixtures of Me2Cd and propylene sulfide to 85–250 °C, in sealed vessels, gaseous products are formed. These are principally propene and methane, in an approximately 2:1 molar ratio, while in a flow system not only are propene and methane found as the major gaseous products at 300 °C, but also a layer of solid CdS is deposited.
