ABSTRACT
A series of N-protected 3-imino-functionalized indolyl ligands 1-R-3-(R'NâCH)C8H5N [R = Bn, R' = 2,6-(i)Pr2C6H3 (HL(1)); R = CH3, R' = 2,6-(i)Pr2C6H3 (HL(2)); R = Bn, R' = (t)Bu (HL(3))] and 1-CH3-2-(2,6-(i)Pr2C6H3NâCH)C8H5N (HL(4)) was prepared via reactions of N-protected indolyl aldehydes with corresponding amines. The C-H σ-bond metathesis followed by alkane elimination reactions between RE(CH2SiMe3)3(thf)2 and HL(1)-HL(3) afforded the carbon σ-bonded indolyl-ligated rare-earth metal monoalkyl complexes. Reactions of RE(CH2SiMe3)3(thf)2 with 2 equiv of HL(1) or HL(2) gave the carbon σ-bonded indolyl-ligated rare-earth metal monoalkyl complexes L(1)2RECH2SiMe3 (RE = Y(1), Er(2), Dy(3)) and L(2)2RECH2SiMe3 (RE = Y(5), Er(6), Dy(7), Yb(8)), while reaction of Yb(CH2SiMe3)3(thf)2 with 2 equiv of HL(1) afforded the ytterbium dialkyl complex L(1)Yb(CH2SiMe3)2(thf)2 (4). Reactions of RE(CH2SiMe3)3(thf)2 with HL(3) gave the tris(heteroaryl) rare-earth metal complexes L(3)3RE (RE = Y(9), Er(10)). In the presence of cocatalysts, the rare-earth metal monoalkyl complexes initiated isoprene polymerization with a high activity (90% conversion of 1000 equiv of isoprene in 25 min) producing polymers with high regio- and stereoselectivity (1,4-cis polymers up to 99%).
