(μ-Di-tert-butyl-silanediolato)bis-[bis-(η⁵-cyclo-penta-dien-yl)methyl-zirconium].

ABSTRACT: The reaction of t-Bu₂Si(OH)₂ with two equivalents of Cp₂Zr(CH₃)₂ produces the title t-Bu₂SiO₂-siloxide bridged dimer, [Zr₂(CH₃)₂(C₅H₅)₄(C₈H₁₈O₂Si)] or [Cp₂Zr(CH₃)]2[μ-t-Bu₂SiO₂] (1), where one methyl group is retained per zirconium atom. The same product is obtained at room temperature even when equimolar ratios of the silanediol and Cp₂Zr(CH₃)₂ are used. Attempts to thermally eliminate methane and produce a bridging methyl-ene complex resulted in decomposition. The crystal structure of 1 displays typical Zr-CH₃ and Zr-O distances but the Si-O distance [1.628 (2) Å] and O-Si-O angle [110.86 (15)°] are among the largest observed in this family of compounds suggesting steric crowding between the t-Bu substituents of the silicon atom and the cyclo-penta-dienyl groups. The silicon atom lies on a crystallographic twofold axis and both Cp rings are disordered over two orientations of equal occupancy.

(tert-Butyl-imido)bis-(η-cyclo-penta-dien-yl)pyridine-zirconium(IV).

Project description:The title compound, [Zr(C(5)H(5))(2)(C(4)H(9)N)(C(5)H(5)N)], was obtained from the reaction of (C(5)H(5))(2)Zr(py)(η(2)-Me(3)SiC(2)SiMe(3)) (py is pyridine) and (t)BuN=C=N(t)Bu alongside the formation of (C(5)H(5))(2)Zr(CN(t)Bu)(η(2)-Me(3)SiC(2)SiMe(3)). The zirconium atom is coordinated in a distorted tetra-hedral geometry by two cyclo-penta-dienyl ligands, a pyridine ligand, and a tert-butyl-imido ligand via a Zr=N double bond. The tert-butyl group is disordered over two positions in a 0.634 (5):0.366 (5) ratio.

Dibromido[bis-(η-cyclo-penta-dien-yl)dimethyl-silane]zirconium(IV).

Project description:The title mol-ecule, [ZrBr(2)(C(12)H(14)Si)], possesses a crystallographically imposed twofold rotational symmetry with the rotation axis passing through the Zr and Si atoms. The Zr(IV) centre is in a distorted tetra-hedral environment defined by two Cp rings of chelating organic ligands and two Br anions. Two five-membered rings form a dihedral angle of 59.7 (2)°. Unequal Zr-C bonds [2.471 (3)-2.556 (3) Å] in the mol-ecule indicate that the inter-action of the central metal with the [(C(5)H(4))(2)SiMe(2)](2-) ligand contains noticeable η(3)-allyl and η(2)-olefin contributions.

Bis(η-cyclo-penta-dien-yl)bis-(2,4,6-tri-methyl-phenyl-tellurolato)zirconium(IV).

Project description:The structure of the title compound, [Zr(C(5)H(5))(2)(C(9)H(11)Te)(2)], consists of a zirconium(IV) centre bonded to two η(5)-coord-inated cyclo-penta-dienyl groups and two mesityltellurolate ligands; the discrete mol-ecule has crystallographic twofold rotation symmetry. The structural parameters compared with those in [(η(5)-Me(5)Cp)(2)Zr(TePh)(2)] [Howard, Trnka & Parkin (1995 ▶). Inorg. Chem.34, 5900-5909] show that the greater steric demands of the bulky mesityl substituents are accommodated by widening Te-Zr-Te (∼8°) and by more acute Zr-Te-C (∼5°) angles, although the Zr-Te distances are essentially the same. The crystal studied exhibited some inversion twinning.

Bis(μ-2-tert-butyl-phenyl-imido-1:2κN:N)chlorido-2κCl-(diethyl ether-1κO)(2η-penta-methyl-cyclo-penta-dien-yl)lithiumtantalum(V).

Project description:In the title compound, [LiTa(C(10)H(15))(C(10)H(13)N)(2)Cl(C(4)H(10)O)], the Ta(V) atom is coordinated by a η(5)-penta-methyl-cyclo-penta-dienyl (Cp*) ligand, a chloride ion and two N-bonded 2-tert-butyl-phenyl-imide dianions. With respect to the two N atoms, the chloride ion and the centroid of the Cp* ring, the tantalum coordination geometry is approximately tetra-hedral. The lithium cation is bonded to both the 2-tert-butyl-phenyl-imide dianions and also a diethyl ether mol-ecule, in an approximate trigonal planar arrangement. The Ta⋯Li separation is 2.681 (15) Å. In the crystal, a weak C-H⋯Cl inter-action links the mol-ecules. When compared to the 2,6-diisopropyl-phenyl-imide analogue ('the Wigley derivative') of the title compound, the two structures are conformationally matched with an overall r.m.s. difference of 0.461Å.
