RESUMO
Reactions of Ti(NMe(2))(2)Cl(2) with a wide range of primary alkyl and arylamines RNH(2) afforded the corresponding 5-coordinate imido titanium compounds Ti(NR)Cl(2)(NHMe(2))(2) (R = (t)Bu (1), (i)Pr (2), CH(2)Ph (3), Ph (4), 2,6-C(6)H(3)Me(2) (5), 2,6-C(6)H(3)(i)Pr(2) (6), 2,4,6-C(6)H(2)F(3) (7), 2,3,5,6-C(6)HF(4) (8), C(6)F(5) (9), 4-C(6)H(4)Cl (10), 2,3,5,6-C(6)HCl(4) (11), 2-C(6)H(4)CF(3) (12), 2-C(6)H(4)(t)Bu (13)). The compounds 1-13 are monomeric in solution but in the solid state form either N-H...Cl hydrogen bonded dimers or chains or perfluorophenyl pi-stacked chains, depending on the imido R-group. The compound 13 was also prepared in a "one-pot" synthesis from RNH(2) and Ti(NMe(2))(4) and Me(3)SiCl. Reaction of certain Ti(NR)Cl(2)(NHMe(2))(2) compounds with an excess of pyridine afforded the corresponding bis- or tris-pyridine analogues [Ti(NR)Cl(2)(py)(x)](y) (x = 3, y = 1; x = y = 2), and the structure of Ti(2)(NC(6)F(5))(2)Cl(2)(mu-Cl)(2)(py)(4) shows pi-stacking of perfluorophenyl rings. Reaction of Ti(NMe(2))(2)Cl(2) with cross-linked aminomethyl polystyrene gave quantitative conversion to the corresponding solid-supported titanium imido complex. This paper represents the first detailed study of how supramolecular structures of imido compounds may be influenced by simple variation of the imido ligand N-substituent.
RESUMO
The multigram syntheses of the protio ligands (2-NC(5)H(4))CH(2)N(CH(2)CH(2)NHSiMe(2)R)(2) (R = Me, H(2)N(2)NN' 3; R = (t)Bu, H(2)N(2)NN() 4) are described via reactions of the previously reported (2-NC(5)H(4))CH(2)N(CH(2)CH(2)NH(2))(2) (1). A new synthesis of 1 is reported starting from 2-aminomethylpyridine and N-tosylaziridine, proceeding via (2-NC(5)H(4))CH(2)N(CH(2)CH(2)NHTs)(2) (2). Reaction of H(2)N(2)NN' or H(2)N(2)NN* with (n)BuLi gives good yields of the dilithiated derivatives Li(2)N(2)NN' and Li(2)N(2)NN*. Reaction of H(2)N(2)NN' or H(2)N(2)NN* with [MCl(2)(CH(2)SiMe(3))(2)(Et(2)O)(2)] gives the cis-dichloride complexes [MCl(2)(L)] (L = N(2)NN', M = Zr 7 or Hf 8; L = N(2)NN(), M = Zr 9). The corresponding reactions of H(2)N(2)NN' or H(2)N(2)NN* with [Zr(NMe(2))(4)] afford the bis(dimethylamide) derivatives [Zr(NMe(2))(2)(L)] (L = N(2)NN' 10 or N(2)NN* 11). All of these protonolysis reactions proceed smoothly and in good yields. Attempts to prepare the titanium complexes [Ti(X)(2)(N(2)NN')] (X = Cl or NMe(2)) were unsuccessful. The X-ray crystal structures of (2-NC(5)H(4))CH(2)N(CH(2)CH(2)NHTs)(2).EtOH, [ZrCl(2)(N(2)NN')].0.5C(6)H(6), [Zr(NMe(2))(2)(N(2)NN')], and [Zr(NMe(2))(2)(N(2)NN*)] are reported.
