LITHIUM NITRIDE REDUCTION OF Cp2TiCl2 and CpTiCl3: THE SYNTHESIS OF (Cp2TiCl)2, (Cp2TiCl2)n, Cp2Ti(CO)2 AND CHLOROTETRATITANIUM AND NITRIDOHEXATITANIUM COMPLEXES

Stoichiometric reactions of Cp2TiCl2 or CpTiCl3 with Li3N in various molar ratios result in reduction to (Cp2TiCl)2, (CpTiCl2)_n and (CpTiCl)4 and provide useful synthetic routes.Further reduction produces hexanuclear nitrido titanium clusters,
