Title: (Bu4N)2Re2Cl8
Post by: zeshkani on September 13, 2007, 11:42:40 PM
iam supposed to come out with a synthetic approche on how to make this compound

(Bu4N)2Re2Cl8     starting with Re, does anybody have any ideas maybe ???, i will be looking at lierature for the next few weeks, but if anybody has an ideas i would look into them
thx

I found some similar structures in CSD. Below are the references. I think that first two are the most interesting:

No problem, most of these articles is available online.

Yea I also have to find a way to synthesize this molecule starting with Re metal so I was hoping you could be more specific on where to find articles, what is CSD?. I am suppose to use scifinder.

CSD - Cambridge Structural Database, SciFinder, maybe is connected to it, but it's OK.

And where to find? My god. Or try, if you have an access, to download them from their website (for example Inorganic Chemistry is on http://pubs.acs.org site). Every Uni. has its own way to get access. You should know, not I. If this doesn't work go to library and find printed version of articles...
