Reaction of 2 equiv of Li[NH-2,6-C6H3R2] with [(Me4taa)Zrcl2] (Me4taaH2 = tetramethyldibenzotetraaza[14]-annulene) gives the bis(amido) derivatives [(Me4taa)Zr(NH-2,6-C6H3R2) 2] [R = Pri (1) and Me (2)]. Addition of Me4taaH2 to [Zr(N-2,6-C6H3Pr2i)(NH-2,6-C 6H3Pr2i)2(py) 2] also affords 1. The reaction of 2 equiv of aryl or alkyl amines H2NR with the bis(alkyl) complex [(Me4taa)Zr(CH2SiMe3)2] is the most versatile method for preparing [(Me4taa)Zr(NHR)2] (R = 2,6-C6H3Pr2i, 2,6-C6H3Me2, Ph, or But). Reaction of 1 equiv of Me4taaH2 with the binuclear complexes [(ButNH)2Zr(μ-NBut)2Zr(NHBu t)2] or [(py)(HN-2,6-C6H3Me2) 2Zr(μ-N-2,6-C6H3Me2) 2Zr-(NH-2,6-C6H3Me2) 2(py)] gives the asymmetrically substituted derivatives [(Me4taa)Zr(μ-NR)2Zr(NHR)2] [R = But (6) or 2,6-C6H3Me2 (8)], which have been crystallographically characterized.
