Reactions of Lithiated Diphosphanes R2P-P(SiMe3)Li (R = tBu and iPr) with [MeNacnacTiCl2·THF] and [MeNacnacTiCl3]. Formation and Structure of TitaniumIII and TitaniumIV β-Diketiminato Complexes Bearing the Side-on Phosphanylphosphido and Phosphanylphosphinidene Functionalities

β-Diketiminate complexes of TiIII-containing phosphanylphosphido ligands [MeNacnacTi(Cl){η2-P(SiMe3)-PR2}] (MeNacnac- = [Ar]NC(Me)CHC(Me)N[Ar]; Ar = 2,6-iPr2C6H3) were prepared by reactions of [MeNacnacTiCl2·THF] with lithium derivatives of diphosphanes R2P-P(SiMe3)Li (R = tBu, iPr) in toluene solutions. Surprisingly, reactions of [MeNacnacTiCl2·THF] with R2P-P(SiMe3)Li in THF solutions led to TiIV complexes containing phosphanylphosphinidene ligands [MeNacnacTi(Cl)(η2-P-PtBu2)] via an autoredox path involving a migration of a nitrene NAr from the Nacnac skeleton to the Ti centers. Solid-state structures of [MeNacnacTi(Cl){η2-P(SiMe3)-PtBu2}] (1a) and [MeNacnacTi(Cl)(η2-P-PtBu2)] (two isomers 2a1, 2a2) together with [MeNacnacTi(Cl){η2-P(SiMe3)-PiPr2}] (1b) and [MeNacnacTi(Cl)(η2-P-PiPr2)] (2b) were established by the single-crystal X-ray diffraction and display clearly side-on geometry of the (Me3Si)P-PR2 and P-PR2 moieties in the solid state. Phosphanylphosphinidene complexes [MeNacnacTi(Cl)(η2-P-PR2)] indicate that the 31P NMR resonances of phosphinidene P atoms appear at a very low field in solution and in the solid state.

β-diiminato complexes of VIII and TiIII - Formation and structure of stable paramagnetic dialkylmetal compounds

(Mono-β-diiminato)titanium(III) and -vanadium(III) dichlorides LMCl2 [L = ArNC(R)CHC(R)NAr-] are easily accessible from the metal trichlorides and LLi in THF. The crystal structures of LVCl2 (Ar = 2,6-iPr2C6H3, R = Me) and LTiCl2 (Ar = 2,4,6-Me3C6H2, R = Me and Ar = 2,4,6-Me3C6H2, R = tBu) reveal tetrahedral metal environments. Treatment of LVCl2 with alkyllithium reagents affords surprisingly stable dialkylvanadium(III) compounds; the structure of LV(nBu)2 (Ar = 2,6-iPr2C6H3, R = Me) is similar to that of the dichloride. The corresponding dialkyltitanium(III) compounds are less stable; only the dimethyl derivatives could be obtained in pure form (from LTiCl2 and MeMgI), and only for ligands bearing 2,6-disubstituted aryl groups. The structure of LTiMe2 (Ar = 2,4,6-Me3C6H2, R = Me) is also similar to that of the dichloride. Reaction of LTiMe2 with B(C6F5)3 produces a catalyst for α-olefin polymerization, but the corresponding VIII derivatives are inactive.
