Titanium Complexes Stabilized by a Sulfur‐Bridged Chelating Bis(aryloxo) Ligand as Active Catalysts for Olefin Polymerization
2004
The mixed-ligand complexes [Ti2(μ-OR)2(OR)2(κ3-tbop)2] (1a) for R = Me and (1b) R = Et were prepared by the reaction of Ti(OR)4 and H2tbop {H2tbop = 2,2′-thiobis[4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)phenol]} in methanol. Treatment of 1a and 1b with AlMe3 led to the substitution of terminal alkoxy groups to create the organometallic compounds [Ti2(μ-OR)2(κ3-tbop)2(Me)2] (2a) for R = Me and (2b) for R = Et. Controlled hydrolysis of 2b causes the evolution of methane and the formation of the titanoxane compounds [{Ti2(μ-OEt)2(κ3-tbop)2}2(μ-O)2]·2CH2Cl2 (3). Structures of 1a, 1b, 2a, 2b, and 3 were confirmed by NMR spectroscopy; 1b and 3 were further investigated with X-ray crystallography. Compounds 1a…
Bridgehead isomer effects in bis(phosphido)-bridged diiron hexacarbonyl proton reduction electrocatalysts
2017
The influence of the substitution, orientation and structure of the phosphido bridges in [Fe2(CO)6(μ-PR2)2] electrocatalysts of proton reduction has been studied. The isomers e,a-[Fe2(CO)6{μ-P(Ar)H}2] (1a(Ar): Ar = Ph, 2′-methoxy-1,1′-binaphthyl (bn′)), e,e-[Fe2(CO)6{μ-P(Ar)H}2] (1b(Ar): Ar = Ph, bn′) were isolated from reactions of iron pentacarbonyl and the corresponding primary phosphine, syntheses that also afforded the phosphinidene-capped tri-iron clusters, [Fe3(CO)9(μ-CO)(μ3-Pbn′)] (2) and [Fe3(CO)9(μ3-PAr)2] (3(Ar), Ar = Ph, bn′). A ferrocenyl (Fc)-substituted dimer [Fe2(CO)6{μ:μ′-1,2-(P(CH2Fc)CH2)2C6H4}] (4), in which the two phosphido bridges are linked by an o-xylyl group, was al…
Experimental and Theoretical Investigations of the Redox Behavior of the Heterodichalcogenido Ligands [(EPiPr2)(TePiPr2)N]− (E = S, Se): Cyclic Catio…
2008
The two-electron oxidation of the lithium salts of the heterodichalcogenidoimidodiphosphinate anions [(EPiPr2)(TePiPr2)N]− (1a, E = S; 1b, E = Se) with iodine yields cyclic cations [(EPiPr2)(TePiPr2)N]+ as their iodide salts [(SPiPr2)(TePiPr2)N]I (2a) and [(SePiPr2)(TePiPr2)N]I (2b). The five-membered rings in 2a and 2b both display an elongated E−Te bond as a consequence of an interaction between tellurium and the iodide anion. One-electron reduction of 2a and 2b with cobaltocene produces the neutral dimers (EPiPr2NPiPr2Te−)2 (3a, E = S; 3b, E = Se), which are connected exclusively through a Te−Te bond. Two-electron reduction of 2a and 2b with 2 equiv of cobaltocene regenerates the corresp…
