Rapid Access to Dimethylcyclopentadienyltitanium(IV) Amidinate, (C5R5)TiMe2[NR1C(R2)NR3] (R = H and Me; R2 = Me), Libraries
摘要:
Facile insertion of carbodiimides, (RN)-N-1=C=NR3, into a Ti-C-Me bond of (C5R5)TiMe3 (R = H and Me) (2a and 2b, respectively) in pentane solutions at 25 degrees C provides a wide range of derivatives of (C5R5)TiMe2[(NRC)-C-1(Me)NR3] (1) in high yield. Low barriers to racemization (less than or equal to 15 kcal mol(-1)) have been determined for derivatives of 1 where R-1 not equal R-3, and further, a preliminary screen has found some of these to be Ziegler-Natta catalyst precursors for the polymerization of ethylene upon activation with methylaluminoxane.
