There are contributions from both academic and industrial groups. This is a somewhat specialised area of synthesis, requiring techniques additional to those employed in ‘normal’ organic synthesis. Solid-phase synthesis has a number of pros and cons. The idea of immobilising part of, say, a drug candidate to a solid support on quite a large scale and then coupling a series of ‘second’ parts of the drug target to samples of the initial species can be a very convenient and attractive approach to library synthesis and one which is potentially very effi cient and rapid. Alternatively, a diverse series of precursors can be built up on a solid support then cyclised using palladium catalysis. On the downside, it is often rather time-consuming to follow the progress of such syntheses and to manage the inevitable differences in reaction rates between a diverse range of reactants. Hence, the purpose of this book is to provide experimental guidance across a range of palladiumcatalysed coupling reactions of the types which have made such an important impact on organic synthesis in general. These reactions represent a true paradigm shift in the way that organic synthesis is currently viewed and executed.","PeriodicalId":20208,"journal":{"name":"Platinum Metals Review","volume":"38 1","pages":"169-172"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1595/147106713X667470","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67346639","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Platinum also has a place in jewellery manufacturing. The objective of this article is to review the existing phase diagrams and known properties of some platinum alloys that are used in industrial and jewellery applications, and also to present published data on some less used platinum alloys which nevertheless have interesting properties. The alloys covered are of platinum with palladium, iridium, rhodium, ruthenium, gold and nickel. The data on mechanical properties of the platinum alloys presented in Tables I–VII are obtained from the monograph by R. F. Vines (2) published in 1941, still the most comprehensive source, from The PGM Database (3) hosted by Johnson Matthey, and from the internal database and website of Sigmund Cohn Corporation (4), a US pgm alloy fabricator. To keep the uniformity of units of measure all tensile strength (TS) data is presented in psi, and all the hardness data is presented in Vickers hardness (HV) (some of these values are converted from MPa and Brinell respectively). All alloy compositions are given in weight per cent (wt%) unless otherwise specified.","PeriodicalId":20208,"journal":{"name":"Platinum Metals Review","volume":"4 1","pages":"202-213"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1595/147106713X668596","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67346746","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By varying the nature and the amount of dispersing agent the average diameter of the Pt spheres could be adjusted between 200 nm and 800 nm. Electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction (XRD) evaluations revealed that the fi nal Pt particles were the result of an irreversible aggregation of small (~6 nm) nanoparticles. The size of the constituent crystallites was controllably increased through a subsequent heat treatment process without affecting the shape or the dispersion of the Pt spheres. The method described represents a versatile and cost-effective route for producing Pt powders at the sub-micrometre or micrometre scale with controlled crystallinity for thick fi lm electronic applications.","PeriodicalId":20208,"journal":{"name":"Platinum Metals Review","volume":"57 1","pages":"160-168"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1595/147106713X667605","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67346677","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
