Definition
Methylcyclopentadienyl Manganese Tricarbonyl is a dark orange liquid with a faintly pleasant odor. It is used as a fuel additive to abate smoke and as a gasolinc additive in antiknock mixes.
Preparation
Into a reaction flask under nitrogen was placed 1.26 parts bis(methylcyclopentadienyl) manganese (91.8% pure), 0.93 parts manganous acetate, 0.78 parts tetrahydrofuran (THF) and 17.31 parts toluene. Over a period of 15 minutes, a solution of 1.24 parts triethyl aluminum (TEA) in 8.70 parts of toluene was added to the above mixture with a vigorous stirring (Al/Mn atom ratio 1/1, TEA/THF mole ratio 1/1). The solution darkened slightly. This solution of the intermediate complex was transferred under nitrogen to a stainless steel autoclave. The autoclave was sealed, pressurized twice to 300 psig with carbon monoxide and vented and finally pressurized with carbon monoxide to 600 psig and heated while stirring to 100° C. Carbon monoxide was added as needed to maintain 600 psig. After two hours at 100° C., the temperature was raised to 150° C. for 30 minutes. The autoclave was then cooled, vented and discharged. The mixture was hydrolyzed with 10% aqueous HCl. An equal volume of pentane was added to extract the MMT. The pentane phase was analyzed by gas chromoatograph (GC) using a pentadecane internal standard to show a yield of Methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl(MMT) based on manganese of 84% and, based on MCP, of 89%.
General Description
Methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl (hereinafter "MMT") is an antiknock agent for gasoline discovered in the fifties and sold commercially by Ethyl Corporation. It can be made by the reaction of carbon monoxide with bis(methylcyclopentadienyl) manganese referred to as "carbonylation".
Air & Water Reactions
Slightly soluble in water.
Reactivity Profile

Flammability and Explosibility
Non flammable
Safety Profile
Poison by ingestion, inhalation, skin contact, intravenous, and intraperitoneal routes. A slimn irritant. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of CO. See also MANGANESE COMPOUNDS and CARBONYLS.
Potential Exposure
MMT is used as an octane improver in unleaded gasoline, other distillate fuels, and fuel oils; as a smoke abater in fuels.
First aid
If this chemical gets into the eyes, remove anycontact lenses at once and irrigate immediately for at least15 min, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids. Seek medical attention immediately. If this chemical contacts theskin, remove contaminated clothing and wash immediatelywith soap and water. Seek medical attention immediately. Ifthis chemical has been inhaled, remove from exposure,begin rescue breathing (using universal precautions, including resuscitation mask) if breathing has stopped and CPR if heart action has stopped. Transfer promptly to a medical facility. When this chemical has been swallowed, get medical attention. Give large quantities of water and induce vomiting. Do not make an unconscious person vomit.
storage
Color Code—Blue: Health Hazard/Poison: Store in a secure poison location. Prior to working with this chemical you should be trained on its proper handling and storage. Store in tightly closed containers in a cool, well-ventilated area away from oxidizers. Where possible, automatically pump liquid from drums or other storage containers to process containers.
Shipping
UN3281 Metal carbonyls, liquid n.o.s. Hazard class 6.1. Technical name required, Potential Inhalation Hazard (Special Provision 5).
Incompatibilities
