Cyclopentadienone

Cyclopentadienone is an organic compound with molecular formula C5H4O. The parent cyclopentadienone is rarely encountered, because it rapidly dimerizes.[1] Many substituted derivatives are known, notably tetraphenylcyclopentadienone. Such compounds are used as ligands in organometallic chemistry.[2]

The Knölker complex, derived from a substituted cyclopentadienone, is a catalyst for transfer hydrogenation.[3]

Preparation

Cyclopentadienone can be generated by the photolysis or pyrolysis of various substances (e.g. 1,2-benzoquinone[4]), and then isolated in an argon matrix at 10 K. It dimerizes readily upon thawing the matrix (38 K).[5][6]

gollark: Kit accidentally made #f invite-only for some time, for instance. Or Sinthorion, or something.
gollark: Maybe. It could also ensure that channels don't end up beeized, which has happened before.
gollark: Anyway, thoughts on an IRC services thing for APIONET? I could reconstitute Apioid™.

gollark: Why not do it on the serverside, for purposes?
