The crystal structures of Cr(PhCN)2 (2), (PhCN)Cr(PhCH3) (3) and (PhCN)Cr(PhCF3) (4) prepared by means of the Metal Vapor Synthesis (MVS) technique have been determined. Compounds (2), (3) and (4) crystallize as discrete sandwich complexes having intrinsic C 2v (mm2), C s (m) and C 1(1) symmetries, respectively. The X-ray diffraction study has revealed a synperiplanar conformation for (2) and (3), and a synclinal conformation for (4) with a torsion angle (C ipso 1–Centroid1–Centroid2–C ipso 2) of φ = 63.5°. The angles between the ligand planes are 2.2, 3.9 and 1.8°, respectively. The Cr atom is slightly (by 0.04–0.06 Å) displaced towards the substituents from the line connecting the centers of the opposite aromatic rings. The Cr—C ipso distances are 2.115 (2)–2.137 (2), 2.112 (2) and 2.185 (3) Å for CN, CF3 and CH3 groups, respectively. The CN groups as well as the H atoms lie out of the C 6 ring planes and are bent towards the Cr atom, but the C atom of the CH3 group also lying out of the C6 ring plane is bent away from the Cr atom. The C atom of the CF3 group is essentially coplanar to the C 6 ring plane. There are no unusual intermolecular contacts in the structures of (2)–(4).

<p>Phosphate esters have a wide range of industrial applications, for example in tribology where they are used as vapour phase lubricants and antiwear additives. To rationally design phosphate esters with improved tribological performance, an atomic-level understanding of their film formation mechanisms is required. One important aspect is the thermal decomposition of phosphate esters on steel surfaces, since this initiates film formation. In this study, ReaxFF molecular dynamics simulations are used to study the thermal decomposition of phosphate esters with different substituents on several ferrous surfaces. On Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub>(001) and α-Fe(110), chemisorption interactions between the phosphate esters and the surfaces occur even at room temperature, and the number of molecule-surface bonds increases as the temperature is increased from 300 to 1000 K. Conversely, on hydroxylated, amorphous Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub>, most of the molecules are physisorbed, even at high temperature. Thermal decomposition rates were much higher on Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub>(001) and particularly α-Fe(110) compared to hydroxylated, amorphous Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub>. This suggests that water passivates ferrous surfaces and inhibits phosphate ester chemisorption, decomposition, and ultimately film formation. On Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub>(001), thermal decomposition proceeds mainly through C-O cleavage (to form surface alkyl and aryl groups) and C-H cleavage (to form surface hydroxyls). The onset temperature for C-O cleavage on Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub>(001) increases in the order: tertiary alkyl < secondary alkyl < primary linear alkyl ≈ primary branched alkyl < aryl. This order is in agreement with experimental observations for the thermal stability of antiwear additives with similar substituents. The results highlight surface and substituent effects on the thermal decomposition of phosphate esters which should be helpful for the design of new molecules with improved performance.</p>

: Oxabenzonorbornadiene (OBD) is a useful synthetic intermediate which can be readily activated by transition metal complexes with great face selectivity due to its dual-faced nature and intrinsic angle strain on the alkene. To date, the understanding of transition-metal catalyzed reactions of OBD itself has burgeoned; however, this has not been the case for unsymmetrical OBDs. Throughout the development of these reactions, the nature of C1-substituent has proven to have a profound effect on both the reactivity and selectivity of the outcome of the reaction. Upon substitution, different modes of reactivity arise, contributing to the possibility of multiple stereo-, regio-, and in extreme cases, constitutional isomers which can provide unique means of constructing a variety of synthetically useful cyclic frameworks. To maximize selectivity, an understanding of bridgehead substituent effects is crucial. To that end, this review outlines hitherto reported examples of bridgehead substituent effects on the chemistry of unsymmetrical C1-substituted OBDs.
