Oxidative alkylation of (η5-C5Me5)2TiR (R = Cl, Me, Et, CH=CH2, Ph, OMe, N=C(H)tBu) to (η5-C5Me5)2Ti(Me)R by group 12 organometallic compounds MMe2

Oxidative alkylation of Cp*2TiX (Cp*: η5-C5Me5; X = OMe, Cl, N=C(H)tBu) and Cp* 2TiMe by CdMe2 or ZnMe2 gives diamagnetic Cp*2Ti(Me)X and Cp*2TiMe2 respectively, and cadmium or zinc. The reactions of Cp*2TiR (R = Et, CH=CH2, Ph) with MMe2 (M = Cd, Zn) give statistical mixtures of Cp*2Ti(Me)R, Cp*2TiMe2 and Cp*2TiR2. Dimethylmercury does not react with Cp*2TiX.

Possible routes of animal exposure to cadmium and cadmium compounds and induced effects: a review

A retrospective analysis about cadmium and cadmium compounds teratogenicity, toxicity and carcinogenicity was carried out on literature basis, up to date, reviewed according to animal species, routes of exposure, acute and chronic response to different dosages via gastrointestinal or inhalatory uptake, target organs and apparatus. Some recent updates from experimental trials were also comparatively considered
