Zirconium complexes incorporating the new tridentate diamide ligand [(Me3Si)N{CH2CH2N(SiMe3)}2]2–(L); the crystal structures of [Zr(BH4)2L] and [ZrCl{CH(SiMe3)2}L]
摘要:
The lithium complex of the sterically demanding, polyfunctional amide ligand [(Me3Si)N-{CH2CH2N(SiMe3)}2]2-, Li2L reached with [ZrCl4(thf)2] (thf = tetrahydrofuran) to form dimeric [(ZrCl2L)2] 2, in which the ligand is facially co-ordinated in a tridentate manner. Treatment of 2 with LiBH4 or Li[CH(SiMe3)2] generated [Zr(H3BH)L] 3 and [ZrCl{CH(SiMe3)2}L] 4, respectively. Variable-temperature NMR studies on 4 give evidence for restricted rotation of both the alkyl and amino SiMe3 groups. The crystal structures of 3 and 4 have been determined.

abstraction from Me3SiN(CH2CH2NSiMe3)2}ZrR2 (N3ZrR2; R = CH2Ph, Me) using B(C6F5)3 affords cationic alkyl complexes stabilized by a diamide ligand. The ionic η2-benzyl adduct decomposes slowly to give a cationic cyclometalation product, which coordinates the [PhCH2B(C6F5)3]- anion; the methyl cation coordinates the anion [MeB(C6F5)3]- via a Zr···Me−B interaction. The complexes exhibit moderate ethene polymerization
