REACTIONS OF CR, MO, W, AND MN CARBONYLS WITH 3,6-DI-TERT-BUTYL-O-QUINONE UNDER THE ACTION OF ELASTIC-WAVE PULSES

Solid-state reactions of Cr, Mo, W, and Mn carbonyls with 3,6-di-tert- butyl-o-benzo-quinone (Q) proceeding in molded powder-like mixtures (c arbonyl-Q) treated with purses of elastic waves were studied. The prod ucts of the reactions of Q with Cr(CO)(6), Mo(CO)(6), and W(CO)(6) are paramagnetic semiquinone complexes of Cr, Mo, and W. The formation of two semiquinone complexes with one or two manganese atoms was detecte d in the reaction of Mn-2(CO)(10) with Q.
