Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of organometallic synthesis technology, and more specifically to a dicarbonylcyclopentadienyl cobalt complex, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Dicarbonylcyclopentadienylcobalt is an organic compound with the chemical formula C7H5CoO2, primarily used in organic synthesis. Its applications in chip manufacturing are mainly concentrated in thin-film deposition processes and advanced interconnect technologies. Due to its unique volatility, low-temperature decomposition characteristics, and excellent electrochemical properties, it has become one of the key precursor materials in the semiconductor industry.
[0003] The traditional method for synthesizing dicarbonylcyclopentadienyl cobalt involves refluxing octacarbonyl dicobalt (Co2(CO)8) and cyclopentadiene (CP) with dichloromethane (DCM) for 48 hours. However, this method suffers from problems such as easy decomposition of the raw material octacarbonyl dicobalt and excessive byproducts, which leads to difficulty in purifying the product and reduced yield, seriously affecting the stability of the production process.
[0004] Therefore, how to provide an efficient method for preparing dicarbonylcyclopentadienyl cobalt is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In view of this, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a dicarbonylcyclopentadienyl cobalt complex, its preparation method and application, so as to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] A method for preparing a dicarbonylcyclopentadienyl cobalt complex specifically includes the following steps:
[0008] (1) Dissolve cobalt octacarbonyl in dichloromethane presaturated with carbon monoxide and continuously pass carbon monoxide gas for protection to obtain the reaction system;
[0009] (2) Dissolve cyclopentadiene in dichloromethane and continuously pass carbon monoxide gas through it for protection to obtain a cyclopentadiene solution;
[0010] (3) Add cyclopentadiene solution to the reaction system, heat and stir to react;
[0011] (4) The reaction system is subjected to pressure distillation and rectification to obtain the dicarbonylcyclopentadienyl cobalt complex.
[0012] Furthermore, in step (3) above, the mass ratio of octacarbonyldicobalt to cyclopentadiene is (2:1)-(1:20), preferably (2:1)-(1:3).
[0013] Furthermore, in step (3) above, the temperature is raised to 40°C.
[0014] Furthermore, in step (3) above, the temperature of the stirring reaction is 40°C and the time is 10-48h, preferably 48h.
[0015] The present invention also claims protection for a dicarbonylcyclopentadienyl cobalt complex prepared by the above-described preparation method.
[0016] The present invention also claims the application of a dicarbonylcyclopentadienyl cobalt complex prepared by the above preparation method in chemical vapor deposition and atomic layer deposition.
[0017] As can be seen from the above technical solution, compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0018] 1. This invention uses CO-presaturated dichloromethane to dissolve cobalt octacarbonyl, and an excess of CO gas is introduced throughout the reaction to maintain a reducing atmosphere, reduce the decomposition of raw materials, and inhibit cobalt oxidation.
[0019] 2. In this invention, the addition of a cyclopentadiene solution to the reaction system can reduce the generation of byproducts.
[0020] 3. This invention uses octacarbonyldicobalt and cyclopentadiene as raw materials, dichloromethane as solvent, and carbon monoxide as protective gas to prepare a cyclopentadiene solution, obtaining the optimal solution. After the reaction, the proportion of by-products is monitored using a central control method, and subsequent purification is carried out through methods such as solvent removal and distillation to obtain qualified products.
[0021] 4. This invention reduces the decomposition of raw materials and the generation of byproducts by introducing carbon monoxide protective gas throughout the process and preparing cyclopentadiene solution, thereby reducing the difficulty of subsequent purification and improving the reaction yield and the economic benefits of the product.
[0022] 5. In the process of synthesizing dicarbonylcyclopentadienyl cobalt complex, this invention observes the reaction progress by taking samples at intervals, analyzes the content of by-products and product yield, and determines the reaction endpoint.
[0023] 6. The dicarbonylcyclopentadienyl cobalt complex synthesized in this invention is a volatile organic cobalt precursor that can be used in the metal deposition step of chip manufacturing to provide cobalt atoms or ions for forming cobalt-related thin films or wires and other structures. It has wide applications in chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and atomic layer deposition (ALD). Attached Figure Description
