Abstract
The Cr-L bond strengths for Cr(CO) 5L in heptane have been determined using photoacoustic calorimetry. For L = CO, PBu 3, CH 3CN and THF, Δ H BDE = 27.0, 21.6, 18.2, 12.4 kcal mol respectively. Comparison of the Cr-CO bond dissociation energies in the gas phase and in heptane solution suggests a 10 kcal mol stabilization of Cr(CO) 5 by coordinated heptane.
