Abstract

Comparison of the chemistry of [Me₂Si(C₅Me₄)₂]ZrPh₂ and Cp2ZrPh2 demonstrates that incorporation of a [Me₂Si] ansa bridge reduces the barrier for both (i) rotation about the Zr-Ph bond and (ii) elimination of benzene to generate a benzyne intermediate; furthermore, the [Me₂Si] ansa bridge promotes the reaction of two equivalents of MeCN with the benzyne intermediate {[Me₂Si(C₅Me₄)₂]Zr(η ²-C6H4)}, whereas insertion of only one equivalent is observed with [Cp*₂Zr(η²-C₆H₄)].
