A dimeric constrained‐geometry titanium complex linked by double Ti–CH2–Al–CH2 heterocycles

In the structure of bis({N‐di­methyl(1η⁵‐2,3,4,6‐tetra­methyl­in­den­yl)­silyl]­cyclo­hexyl­amido‐1κN}(methyl‐3κC)‐di‐μ₃‐methyl­ene‐1:2:3κ³C;1:3:3′κ³C‐tris(pentafluorophenyl‐2κC)titanium) benzene disolvate, Me₂Si(η⁵‐2,3,4,6‐Me₄C₉H₂)(C₆H₁₁N)]Ti(μ₃‐CH₂)Al(C₆F₅)₃]AlMe(μ₃‐CH₂)]₂ or Ti₂(C₂₁H₇AlF₁₅)₂(C₂₁H₃₁NSi)₂]·2C₆D₆, the dimer is located on an inversion center, and the two Ti centers are linked by double Ti(μ₃‐CH₂)Al(C₆F₅)₃AlMe(μ₃‐CH₂) heterocycles. The electron‐deficient Ti centers are further stabilized by two α‐agostic interactions between Ti and one H atom of each bridging methyl­ene group.
