Abstract

A series of titanium-pyrrolyl compounds, namely [Me₂Si(C ₅Me₄)₂]Ti(NC₄H₄)X (X = H, Me, Cl, NC₄H₄) and [Me₂Si(C₅Me ₄)(C₅Me₃CH₂)]Ti(NC₄H ₄) has been synthesized and structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction. Analysis of the TiNC₄H₄ bond lengths in these complexes indicates that pyrrolyl does not, by comparison to dialkylamido, act as an efficient π-donor ligand. The fulvene complex [Me₂Si(C ₅Me₄)(C₅Me₃CH₂)] Ti(NC₄H₄) is obtained via thermal elimination of CH ₄ and H₂ from [Me₂Si(C₅Me ₄)₂]Ti(NC₄H₄)Me and [Me ₂Si(C₅Me₄)₂]Ti(NC₄H ₄)H, respectively. The latter transformation is reversible, with [Me₂Si(C₅Me₄)(C₅Me ₃CH₂)]Ti(NC₄H₄) reacting with H ₂ to give [Me₂Si(C₅Me₄) ₂]Ti(NC₄H₄)H at room temperature. In accord with this reversibility, treatment of [Me₂Si(C₅Me ₄)₂]Ti(NC₄H₄)H with D₂ results in incorporation of deuterium into the hydride and one ring methyl group of each cyclopentadienyl ring of the [Me₂Si(C₅Me ₄)₂] ligand.
