摘要:
Cp-functionalized monotroticenes [(eta(7)-C7H7)Ti(eta(5)-C5H4E)] (2, E = Ph2SiCl; 3, E = tBu(2)SnCl; 12, E = I) and bitroticenes [(eta(7)-C7H7)Ti(eta(5)-C5H4)](2)E' (5, E' = PPh; 6, E' = BN(SiMe3)(2); 7, E' = Cp2Ti) were prepared by salt elimination metathesis between the monolithiated troticene [(eta(7)-C7H7)Ti(eta(5)-C5H4Li)]center dot pmdta (1b) (pmdta N,N',N',N '',N ''-pentamethyldiethylene-triamine) and the appropriate electrophile. The troticenyl-substituted zirconocene monochloride [(eta(7)-C7H7)Ti(eta(5)-C5H4ZrClCp*(2))] (Cp* = eta(5)-C5Me5) (8) and hafnocene ethoxide [(eta(7)-C7H7)Ti{eta(5)-C5H4Hf(OEt)Cp-2}] (Cp = eta(5)-C5H5) (11), and the heterobimetallic mu-oxo complexes [(eta(7)-C7H7)Ti(eta(5)-C5H4MCp2)](2)O (9, M = Zr; 10, M = Hf) were obtained instead of the expected zircona- and hafna[1]troticenophanes by reaction of the dilithiated troticene [(eta(7)-C7H6Li)Ti(eta 5-C5H4Li)]center dot pmdta (1a) with [Cp2MCl2] (M = Zr, Hf) or [Cp*2ZrCl2] in stoichiometric amounts. These compounds were characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses and, in the case of 2, 3, 5-7, 9, 10 and 12, also by elemental analyses and H-1, C-13 and Sn-119 NMR spectroscopy. Exposure of the troticenyl organotin chloride 3 to moisture resulted in its partial hydrolysis and formation of the organostannoxane-bridged bitroticene 4, while palladium-catalyzed Negishi C-C cross-coupling reaction between the troticenylzinc chloride [(eta(7)-C7H7)Ti(eta(5)-C5H4ZnCl)] (13) and the iodotroticene 12 or iodobenzene (PhI) led to the fulvalene complexes [(eta(7)-C7H7)Ti(eta(5)-C5H4)](2) (14) and [(eta(7)-C7H7)Ti(eta(5)-C5H4Ph)] (15). Compound 4 displays an unsymmetrical structure with the troticenyl fragments cis with respect to the Sn-O-Sn core, whereas compound 14 is centrosymmetrically trans oriented. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V.
