Beiträge zur Chemie der Alkylverbindungen von Übergangsmetallen. XXXV. Zum Reaktionsverhalten von Tetrabenzyltitan gegenüber Lithiumalkylen

Contributions to the Chemistry of Transition Metal Alkyl Compounds. XXXV. Reactions in Tetrabenzyl Titanium/Alkyllithium Systems Organotitanium(IV) complexes of the type Li[(C₆H₅CH₂)₄TiR] (R = CH₃, C₂H₅, n-C₄H₉) were isolated from tetrabenzyl titanium and lithium alkyls at deep temperature. The reddish brown, crystalline compounds decompose between ?30 and 0°C with formation of benzyltitanates(II) which composition differs between Li₂[Ti(CH₂C₆H₅)₄] and Li[Ti(CH₂C₆H₅)₃]. From these complexes pure dibenzyl titanium can be isolated. The reaction mechanism is discussed. Experiments for isolation of a benzyl titanium(III) compound from (C₆H₅CH₂)₄Ti/RLi systems failed in all cases. Recent informations about stable tribenzyl titanium obtained from tetrabenzyl titanium and ethyl lithium could not be confirmed.     

Synthesis,spectroscopic and X‐ray single‐crystal structure study of bis(2‐methoxy‐ethanolato)‐bis(8‐quinolinato)titanium(IV)

Reaction of Ti(OCH₂CH₂OR)₄ (R?CH₃ and C₂H₅) with 8‐hydroxyquinoline in benzene at room temperature resulted in the formation of Ti(C₉H₆NO)₂(OCH₂CH₂OR)₂, characterized by IR, ¹H‐NMR, UV and mass spectroscopies. The molecular structure of Ti(C₉H₆NO)₂(OCH₂CH₂OCH₃)₂ has been determined by single‐crystal X‐ray structure analysis. The geometry at titanium is a distorted octahedron, with the nitrogen atoms of quinolinate occupying the trans position with respect to oxygens of the 2‐methoxyethoxy groups. The prepared quinolinate derivatives of titanium alkoxides are very stable towards hydrolysis and harsh conditions are required for hydrolytic cleavage. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Reactions of (η5-C5H5)2Tir compounds with organic cyanides

The syntheses and properties of the titanium(III) complexes Cp₂Tir · R′CN (R = C₆H₅, o-, m-, p-CH₃C₆H₄, CH₂C₆H₅, C₆F₅, Cl; R′ = CH₃, t-C₄H₉, C₆H₅, o-CH₃C₆H₄, 2,6-(CH₃)₂C₆H₃) are described. In the complexes the nitrogen atom of the cyanide ligands is coordinated to the metal. The thermal stabilities of the complexes depend markedly on R and R′; on heating they undergo a novel reaction in which two cyanide ligands are coupled by formation of a CC bond, while the metal is oxidized to titanium(IV).     

Synthesis and properties of aryldicyclopentadienyltitanium(III) compounds

The synthesis and properties of the compounds Cp₂TiR, with R = C₆H₅, o-, m-, p-CH₃C₆H₄, 2,6-(CH₃)₂C₆H₃, 2,4,6-(CH₃)₃C₆H₂, C₆F₅, CH₂C₆H₅, are described. Chemical and physical properties indicate that the R groups are σ-bonded to the titanium atom. The complexes are monomeric, with one unpaired electron per titanium atom. They are very air sensitive, and vary markedly in thermal stability; some of the compounds react with molecular nitrogen, to give complexes of the general formula (Cp₂TiR)₂N₂. Compounds CP₂TiR with R = alkyl could not be isolated.     

Ethylene polymerization with novel bridged tri- and tetranuclear titanocene/MAO systems

Two benzene centered tri- and tetracyclopentadienyl ligands C₆H₃(CH₂C₅H₅)₃-1,3,5 (1) and C₆H₂(CH₂C₅H₅)₄-1,2,4,5 (2) and their titanium complexes C₆H₃[CH₂C₅H₄Ti(C₅H₅)Cl₂]₃-1,3,5 (3), C₆H₃[CH₂C₅H₄Ti(C₅H₄CH₃)Cl₂]₃-1,3,5 (4), as well as C₆H₂[CH₂C₅H₄Ti(C₅H₅)Cl₂]₄-1,2,4,5 (5) were synthesized and characterized by mass and ¹H NMR spectra. In the presence of methylaluminoxane (MAO), 3, 4 and 5 are efficient catalysts for ethylene polymerization in toluene. The influence of the polymerization conditions such as catalyst concentration, MAO/Ti molar ratio, polymerization time and temperature were investigated in detail. 3, 4 and 5 produce linear polyethylene (PE) with broad molecular weight distributions (MWD) and a little lower molecular weight.

Control of Hydrolysis and Condensation Reactions of Titanium tert-butoxide by Chemical Modification with Catechol

Titanium tert-butoxide (Ti(OC(CH₃)₃)₄; Ti(O ^t Bu)₄) was chemically modified with catechol (C₆H₄(OH)₂) and hydrolysis and condensation behavior of a resultant modified alkoxide was studied. Spectroscopic results revealed that the reaction between titanium tert-butoxide and catechol resulted in the formation of catecholate groups (C₆H₄O₂ ^2–) bound to titanium and corresponding release of tert-butanol. The mass spectrometry and cryoscopy indicated that main species was a dimer [(C₆H₄O₂)₂Ti₂(O ^t Bu)₄]. The hydrolysis of the modified alkoxide in the system with Ti:tetrahydrofuran (THF):H₂O = 1:10:x (x = 0.5–10) resulted in the partial hydrolysis, and all the hydrolyzed products after the drying under reduced pressure were soluble in THF and chloroform.     

Cyclopentadienyleisen-komplexe mit P(OR)3-liganden; Synthese und spektroskopische charakterisierung

Reactions of reactive cyclopentadienyliron complexes C₅H₅Fe(CO)₂I, [C₅H₅Fe(CO)₂THF]BF₄, [C₅H₅Fe(CO)((CH₃)₂S)₂]BF₄ and [C₅H₅Fe(p-(CH₃)₂C₆H₄)]PF₆ with P(OR)₃ as ligands (R = CH₃, C₂H₅, i-C₃H₇ and C₆H₅) lead to the formation of the complex compounds C₅H₅Fe(CO)_2?n(P(OR)₃)_nI and [C₅H₅Fe(CO)_3?n(P(OR)₃)_n]X (n = 1, 2 and n = 1–3, X = BF₄, PF₆). Spectroscopic investigations (IR, ¹H, ¹³C and ³¹P NMR) indicate an increase of electron density on the central metal with increasing substitution of CO groups by P(OR)₃ ligands. The stability of the compounds increase in the same way.     

Complexes du titane et du zirconium contenant les ligands cyclopentadienyldiphenylphosphine et cyclopentadienylethyldiphenylphosphine: acces a des structures heterobimetalliques

Reactions of Ph₂P(CH₂)_n(C₅H₄)Li, (n = 0, 2), with MCl₄ or CpTiCl₃ (M = Ti, Zr; Cp = η⁵-C₅H₅) form Cl₂M[(η⁵-C₅H₄)(CH₂)_nPPh₂]₂ or Cl₂CpTi[(η⁵-C₅H₄)-(CH₂)₂PPh₂] in good yields. Chemical reduction with Al, or electrochemical reduction of these complexes, under CO, are described. The titanium(IV) and zirconium(IV) derivatives react with metal carbonyls (Mo(CO)₆, Cr(CO)₆, Fe(CO)₅, Mo(CO)₄(C₈H₁₂)) under formation of new heterobimetallic complexes. Reduction with Al of Cl₂CpTi[(η⁵-C₅H₄)(CH₂)₂PPh₂]Mo(CO)₅ under CO results in a new heterobimetallic species containing low valent titanium. Both complexes Cl₂M[(η⁵-C₅H₄)(CH₂)₂PPh₂]₂ (M = Ti, Zr) react with [Rh(μ-Cl)(CO)(C₂H₄)]₂ to yield {RhCl(CO)(Cl₂M[(η⁵-C₅H₄)(CH₂)₂PPh₂]₂)}x, which is assumed to be a dimer, in which the titanium or the zirconium compounds act as bridging diphosphine ligands between the rhodium atoms.     

Thiocarboxylato Complexes of Biscyclopentadienyl and Bisindenyl Titanium (IV)

Reactions of biscyclopentadienyl (and bisindenyl) titanium (IV) dichlorides with sodium salts of various thiocarboxylic acids in tetrahydrofuran medium, yield the complexes of the general formula (D) ²Ti(SCOR) ² where D is cyclopentadienyl or indenyl group and R? H, CH₃, C₂H₅, C⁴H⁵ or p-C⁴H⁴CH³ group. The foul smelling complexes are monomeric in nature. The IR spectra, thermal stabilities and Some physical characteristics of these complexes have been studied.     

Kinetics of Depletion of Electronically Excited Ti Atom by CH4, C2H2, C2H4 and C2H6

The kinetics of depletion of ground state Ti(a³F) and electronically excited state Ti(a⁵F) upon interactions with CH₄, C₂H₂, C₂H₄, and C₂H₆ are studied in a fast-flow reactor at a He pressure of 0.70 Torr. No depletion of ground state Ti(a³F) was observed upon interaction with all hydrocarbons studied here. Two alkanes, CH₄ and C₂H₆, were also quite inert for depletion of the excited state Ti(a⁵F), On the other hand, C₂H₂ and C₂H₄ deplete the excited state Ti(a⁵F) very efficiently. Rate constants were determined to be (266 ± 86) and (476 ± 88) × 10^?12 cm³s^?1 for Ti(a⁵F) + C₂H₄ and Ti(a⁵F) + C₂H₂, respectively. These large rate constants compared with the ground state Ti were explained by an electron donor-acceptor interaction model that works in the interaction between C₂H₄ or C₂H₂ and the excited state with unfilled 4s orbital.     

Titanium(IV) Cations with Trigonal Monopyramidal Geometry: Unusual Lewis Acids Supported by a Triaryl Triamidoamine Ligand

Protonolysis of the titanium alkyl complex [Ti(CH₂SiMe₃)(Xy-N₃N)] (Xy-N₃N=[{(3,5-Me₂C₆H₃)NCH₂CH₂}₃N]³⁻) supported by a triamidoamine ligand, with [NEt₃H][B(3,5-Cl₂C₆H₃)₄] or [PhNMe₂H][B(C₆F₅)₄] afforded the cations [Ti(Xy-N₃N)][A] (A⁻=[B(3,5-Cl₂C₆H₃)₄]⁻ ( 1[B(Ar^Cl)₄] ; B(Ar^Cl)₄=tetrakis(3,5-dichlorophenyl)borate); A⁻=[B(C₆F₅)₄]⁻ ( 1[B(Ar^F)₄] ; B(Ar^F)₄=tetrakis[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]borate). These Lewis acidic cations were reacted with coordinating solvents to afford the cations [Ti(L)(Xy-N₃N)][B(C₆F₅)₄] ( 2-L ; L=Et₂O, pyridine and THF). XRD analysis revealed a trigonal monopyramidal (TMP) geometry for the tetracoordinate cations in 1[B(Ar^X)₄] and trigonal bipyramidal (TBP) geometry for the pentacoordinate cations in 2-L . Variable-temperature NMR spectroscopy showed a dynamic equilibrium for 2-Et₂O in solution, involving the dissociation of Et₂O. Coordination to the titanium(IV) center activated the THF molecule, which, in the presence of NEt₃, underwent ring-opening to give the titanium alkoxide [Ti(O(CH₂)₄NEt₃)(Xy-N₃N)][B(3,5-Cl₂C₆H₃)₄] ( 3 ). Hydride abstraction from C_β,eq of the triamidoamine ligand arm in [Ti(CH₂SiMe₃)(Xy-N₃N)] or [Ti(NMe₂)(Xy-N₃N)] with [Ph₃C][B(3,5-Cl₂C₆H₃)₄] led to the diamidoamine–imine complex [Ti(R){(Xy-N=CHCH₂)(Xy-NCH₂CH₂)₂N}][B(3,5-Cl₂C₆H₃)₄] (R=CH₂SiMe₃ ( 4 a ); R=NMe₂ ( 4 b )). Hydride addition to 4 b with [Li(THF)][HBPh₃] gave [Ti(NMe₂)(Xy-N₃N)], whereas KH deprotonated further to give [Ti(NMe₂){(Xy-NCH=CH)(Xy-NCH₂CH₂)₂N}] ( 5 ). XRD on single crystals of 3 and 4 b confirmed the proposed structures.     

Formation of Binuclear Zigzag Hexapentaene Titanium Complexes via a Titanacumulene [Ti=C=C=CH2] Intermediate

The reaction of bis(η⁵:η¹‐pentafulvene)titanium complexes with an allylidenephosphorylide Ph₃P=C(H)‐ C(H)=CH₂ leads to binuclear zigzag hexapentaene titanium complexes ( Ti2a , Ti2b ). The formation of the central C₆H₄ unit can be described as a spontaneous double C−H bond activation process, leading to an R₃P=C=C=CH₂ intermediate, as a synthon for a titanabutatriene fragment [(Cp^R)₂Ti=C=C=CH₂] (R: 2‐adamantyl, CH(p‐tol)₂). In a subsequent dimerization Ti2a and Ti2b are formed, proofed by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction and NMR measurements. The reaction sequence is confirmed by DFT calculations.     

Synthesis and X-Ray Crystal Structure of the TiMgCl6(CH3COOC2H5)4 Adduct

The molecular and crystal structure of TiMgCl₆(CH₃COOC₂H₅)₄, obtained by reacting TiCl₄ with a solution of MgCl₂ in dry CH₃COOC₂H₅, have been determined by x-ray diffraction. The structure was solved by direct and Fourier methods and refined by least-squares techniques to R = 0.052 for 2722 independent observed reflections. Unit-cell dimensions are a = 17.122(7), b = 9.833(3), c = 9.646(3) Å, α = 111.10(7)°, β = 107.22(6)°, γ = 103.11(6)° with Z = 2 for P1 . The titanium(IV) atom is octahedrally coordinated by six chlorine atoms (Ti? Cl_t = 2.293(2) Å, Ti? Cl_b = 2.480(2) Å) and magnesium by two chlorine atoms (Mg? Cl_b = 2.528(2) Å) and the carbonyl oxygen atoms of the four CH₃COOC₂H₅ residues (Mg? O = 2.038(5) Å). The octahedra share an edge by a double chlorine bridge between the magnesium and titanium atoms. Changes in the configurations and dimensions of the free acceptor and donor molecules on adduct formation are discussed. One of the ethylacetate residues shows positional disorder, eventually with Bonding through its ethereal oxygen.     

Studies on Poly(Dialkoxyphosphazenes) for the Medical Applications

Abstract

The presence of trace of chlorine in poly(diorganophosphazenes) [-N=P(OR)2-]., where R = C₂H₅, CH₂CF₃, C₂F₅, C₄H₅, C₆H₁₃, C₈H₁₇, C₁₂H₂₅, CH₂C₆H₅ in many cases leads to the substantial changes of their physicochemical properties and limits application possibilities of this class of polymers especial for the medical materials. Despite the optimization of reaction conditions for each nucleophilic alkoxy substituent, the obtained poly(dia1koxyphosphaenes) exhibited some physicochemical anomalies.     

Imido Derivatives of Titanium (IV)

Reactions of titanium(IV) isopropoxide with acetamide, benzamide, and nicotinamide in different stoichiometric ratios in anhydrous benzene yielded imido derivatives of type (PrⁱO)_4-nTi(NHOCR)_n where n = 1, 2, 3, and 4; R = CH₃, C₆H₅, and C₅H₄N. All these complexes are insoluble in common organic solvents suggesting their polymeric nature. All these derivatives, with the exception of three which have characteristic melting points, did not sublime at 250°C in vacuo nor did they appear to decompose appreciably below 300°C. I.R. spectra of these derivatives are discussed.     

Funktionell substituierte zinnorganische verbindungen v. st]Phosphono- Und phosphonylmethyl-triorganostannane

The synthesis of phosphono- and phosphonylmethyl-triorganostannanes R₃SnCH₂P(O)(OR′)R′′ (R′′  OR′, C₆H₅) via an Arbuzov reaction of R₃SnCH₂I with P(OR′)₃ or C₆H₅P(OR′)₂ (R′′  CH₃, C₂H₅) is described. The new compounds have been studied with regard to their behaviour towards electrophilic (Br₂, HCl, HgBr₂) and nucleophilic (NaOH, LiAlH₄, LiR) agents. Their reaction with chlorophenylphosphines followed by reduction with LiAlH₄ yields the unsymmetrical methylenebis(phosphines) C₆H₅P(R)CH₂PH₂ (R  H, C₆H₅). The title compounds add to the carbonyl group of aldehydes and the CN bond of phenylisocyanate.
