Chelating dialkoxide titanium complex: a versatile building block for the construction of heterometallic derivatives.

The heterometallic complex [TiCp*(O(2)Bz)(2)AlMe(2)] (2) has been synthesised by reaction of [TiCp*(O(2)Bz)(OBzOH)] (1) with AlMe(3) (Cp*=eta(5)-C(5)Me(5); Bz=benzyl). Complex 1 reacts with HOTf to yield the cationic derivative [TiCp*(OBzOH)(2)]OTf (3) (HOTf=HSO(3)CF(3)). Compound 3 reacts with [{M(mu-OH)(cod)}(2)] (M=Rh, Ir; cod=cyclooctadiene) to render the early-late heterometallic complexes [TiCp*(O(2)Bz)(2){M(cod)}(2)]OTf (M=Rh (4); Ir (5)). The molecular structure of complex 4 has been established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies.

A new titanium building block for early-late heterometallic complexes; preparation of a new tetrameric metallomacrocycle by self assembly.

The new titanium dicarboxylate complex Cp*TiMe(OOC)2py (2) [Cp*=eta5-C5Me5; (OOC)2py = 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylate] has been synthesized. The reaction of complex 2 with water renders [Cp*Ti(OOC)2py]2O (3). The molecular structure of 3 has been studied by X-ray diffraction methods. Complex 2 reacts with isocyanides to yield the respective iminoacyl derivatives Cp*Ti(eta2-MeCNR)(OOC)2py [R=tBu (4), 2,6-dimethylphenyl (xylyl) (5)]. The molecular structure of complex4 has been established by X-ray diffraction. Compound 2 has been employed as a new building block for the preparation of new early-late heterometallic compounds; it reacts with [M(mu-OH)(COD)]2 (M = Rh, Ir) to give the corresponding tetranuclear metallomacrocycle derivatives [Cp*Ti{(OOC)(2)py}(mu-O)M(COD)]2 [M = Rh (6); Ir (7)]. The molecular structure of 6 has been established by X-ray diffraction.

A pyrimidine thiolate Rh(I) complex: structure, bonding and one-dimensional interactions in solid and in solution.

The reaction of [Rh(micro-Cl)(COD)]2 with 4,6-dimethyl-pyrimidinethiolate (Me2-pymt) and subsequent substitution of COD by CO yields [Rh(Me2-pymt)(CO)2]. The stacking pattern found in this compound is in contradiction with previously studied comparable square-planar complexes of type d8-[M(chelate)(monodentate)2] in which each ligand has different pi-acidic character. A theoretical study of the intermolecular interactions and conformation of the title compound has been carried out, combining semi-empirical band calculations on the real chains and ab initio(MP2 level) calculations on a model dimer. The combination of electronic and steric effects determines the rotation of the successive monomers and the deviation from linearity of the one-dimensional stacks. Its behaviour in solution is also special, developing a blue colour and forming micelles, when adding water to acetone solutions.

Early-late heterobimetallic alkoxides as model systems for late-transition-metal catalysts supported on titania.

Titanium complexes with chelating alkoxide ligands [TiCp*(O(2)Bz)(OBzOH)] (1) and [TiCp*(Me)((OCH(2))(2)Py)] (2) were synthesised by reaction of [TiCp*Me(3)] (Cp*=eta(5)-C(5)Me(5)) with 2-hydroxybenzyl alcohol ((HO)(2)Bz) and 2,6-pyridinedimethanol ((HOCH(2))(2)Py), respectively. Complex 1 reacts with [(M(mu-OH)(cod))(2)] (M=Rh, Ir) to yield the early-late heterobimetallic complexes [TiCp*(O(2)Bz)(2)M(cod)] [M=Rh (3), Ir (4)]. Carbon monoxide readily replaces the COD ligand in 3 to give the rhodium dicarbonyl derivative [TiCp*(O(2)Bz)(2)Rh(CO)(2)] (5). Compound 2 reacts with [(M(mu-OH)(cod))(2)] (M=Rh, Ir) with protonolysis of a Tibond;Me bond to give [TiCp*((OCH(2))(2)Py)(mu-O)M(cod)] [M=Rh (6), Ir (7)]. The molecular structures of complexes 3, 5 and 7 were established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies.
