Abstract: | It has been shown that bis(cyclopentadienyl)(μ-cyclopentadiene)dinickel, (NiCP)2(η-C5H6), and (η5-cyclopentadienyl) (η3-cyclopentenyl)nickel, CpNi(η3-C5H7), are formed in the reaction of nickelocene with methyl-lithium and with 1-phenyl-2-methyl-propenyl-lithium. The compound (NiCp)2(μ-C5H6) can be only formed as a result of the reduction of the cyclopentadienyl ring bonded to the nickel atom whereas the formation of CpNi(η3-C5H7) can be explained by the further hydrogeneration of cyclopentadiene formed in the earlier reaction steps. (NiCp)2(μ-C5H6) has been fully characterised spectrometrically and its X-ray structure determined. It crystallises in the orthorhombic system, space group Pnma, with four molecules per unit cell. |
