Abstract Reaction of lithium diphenylphosphinocyclopentadienide with YCl 3 or YCl 3 (THF) 3 and working lead to the formation of three yttrocene phosphines: the lithium metal adduct isolated as (Ph 2 PC 5 H 4 ) 2 Y(μ-Cl) 2 Li(THF) 2 · 0.5 LiCl ( 1 ), the chloride-bridged dimeric species {(Ph 2 PC 5 H 4 ) 2 Y(μ-Cl)} 2 ( 2 ), and the coordinated monometal species [(Ph 2 PC 5 H 4 ) 2 YCl(THF)] ( 3 ). The X-ray structure of 2 is remarkable in that the crystal exhibits two independent chloride-bridged dimers that differ in the arrangement ( syn, anti ) of the diphenylphosphino groups. Chelation of phosphorus atoms to a molydenum carbonyl moiety is also reported.
Versatile behavior of conjugated diynes with zirconocene reactive species
2008
Thermal decomposition of Cp2ZrPh2 in the presence of the buta-1,3-diynes RC≡CC≡CR (R = Ph, SiMe3) can lead to seven- or five-membered metallacycles. In both cases a stable benzo-fused seven-membered zirconacyclocumulene arising from a 2-fold insertion of the triple bonds of the dialkyne in the in situ generated zirconocene benzyne is formed. In the case of Me3SiC≡CC≡CSiMe3 a second minor complex is isolated: a 3-alkynyl-substituted zirconaindene arising from a β monoinsertion of one acetylenic function of the conjugated diyne in the zirconocene benzyne. No stable 2-alkynyl-substituted zirconacycle was isolated. This α monoinsertion complex is an intermediate in the exchange of the metalated…
Coupling of Benzynezirconocene with 1,4-Diphenyl-1,3-butadiyne
2000
The thermolysis of diphenylzirconocene in the presence of 1,4-diphenyl-1,3-butadiyne to yield the seven-membered zirconacyclocumulene 1 via the intermediacy of benzynezirconocene is described. This complex has been characterized by an X-ray diffraction study. Additionally, better knowledge of the bonding of the cumulene moiety was achieved by DFT calculations. Cleavage of the Zr−C bonds of 1 with methanol provided the corresponding butatriene 2.
