Photochemical Production of Reactive Organometallics for Synthesis and Catalysis William C. Trogler Department of Chemistry, D-006, University of California at San Diego, La Jolla, CA 92093 Photochemical reactions of unsaturated metallacycles and of platinum and palladium complexes that contain chelating oxalate yield intermediates with two reac­ tive sites that are either ligand or metal centered. Unsaturated metallacycles exhibit low lying π* excited states that can also function as photoreceptors to pro­ mote ligand dissociation elsewhere in the molecule. A strong coupling model for excited state reactivity of metal carbonyls is presented. Reactions of photogenerated PtL2 and PdL2 fragments (L = trialkylphosphine) are summarized along with methods of preparing silica attached photocatalysts.
