Alkyl Complexes of Group 4 Metals Containing a Tridentate-Linked Amido−Cyclopentadienyl Ligand: Synthesis, Structure, and Reactivity Including Ethylene Polymerization Catalysis
A series of group 4 metal complexes M(η5:η1:η1-C5Me4SiMe2NCH2CH2X)R2 (M = Ti; R = Me, CH2Ph; M = Zr, Hf; R = Me, Et, nPr, nBu, CH2Ph, CH2SiMe3, Ph) containing the tridentate-linked amido−tetramethy...
Synthesis and characterization of titanium(IV) complexes containing the diphenylphosphino- and diphenylthiophosphoryl-functionalized cyclopentadienyl ligand. Crystal and molecular structure of Ti(η5-C5H4PPh2)Cl3
The trimethylsilyl cyclopentadiene derivative C5H4(SiMe3)PPh2 (1) was treated with TiCl4 to give the air- and moisture-sensitive mono(cyclopentadienyl) compound Ti(η5-C5H4PPh2)Cl3 (4). Reaction of 4 with Mg(CH2C6H5)2(THF)2 gave Ti(η5-C5H4PPh2)(CH2C6H5)3 (5). Reactions of the lithium and thallium derivatives M{C5H4P(S)Ph2} (M=Li (2), Tl (3)) with one equiv. of TiCl4 afforded the mono(cyclopentadienyl) complex Ti{η5-C5H4P(S)Ph2}Cl3 (6), whereas reaction with 0.5 equiv. of TiCl4 gave the bis(cyclopentadienyl) complex Ti{η5-C5H4P(S)Ph2}2Cl2 (8). Compound 6 was also isolated as a minor product from the reaction of Ti{η5-C5H4P(S)Ph2}2Cl2 (8) with one equiv. of TiCl4. The major product was identif…
