Titanium complexes metathesis reactions

Sulfur imides with a single NR functionality, S5NR (6.12), SeNR (6.13) (R = Oct), " SgNH (6.14), ° and S9NH (6.15) ° are obtained by a methodology similar to that which has been used for the preparation of unstable sulfur allotropes, e.g., S9 and Sio. Eor example, the metathesis reaction between the bis(cyclopentadienyl)titanium complexes 6.8-6.10 and the appropriate dichlorosulfane yields 6.14 and 6.15 (Eq. 6.4). °... 

A range of chloride metathesis reactions of the monomeric titanium N,N -bis(trimethylsilyl)benzamidinato-imido complexes have been described. These... 

The expected intermediate for the metathesis reaction of a metal alkylidene complex and an alkene is a metallacyclobutane complex. Grubbs studied titanium complexes and he found that biscyclopentadienyl-titanium complexes are active as metathesis catalysts, the stable resting state of the catalyst is a titanacyclobutane, rather than a titanium alkylidene complex [15], A variety of metathesis reactions are catalysed by the complex shown in Figure 16.8, although the activity is moderate. Kinetic and labelling studies were used to demonstrate that this reaction proceeds through the carbene intermediate. 

All the metathesis reactions discussed in this section require only catalytic amounts of a carbene complex. The use of stoichiometric quantities of carbene complexes in organic synthesis is limited to cheap metals such as, e.g., titanium. 

Apart from the tandem metathesis/carbonyl o[efination reaction mediated by the Tebbe reagent (Section 3.2.4.2), few examples of the use of stoichiometric amounts of Schrock-type carbene complexes have been reported. A stoichiometric variant of cross metathesis has been described by Takeda in 1998 [634]. Titanium carbene complexes, generated in situ from dithioacetals, Cp2TiCl2, magnesium, and triethylphosphite (see Experimental Procedures 3.2.2 and 3.2.6), were found to undergo stoichiometric cross-metathesis reactions with allylsilanes [634]. The scope of this reaction remains to be explored.

Complex 4 can be regarded as titanium carbene Cp2Ti = CH2 coordinated by Me2AlCl. This is the first example of a well-defined metal carbene that catalyzes olefin metathesis and is re-isolated in high yield at the end of the reaction, Eq. (10). In a comparatively slow degenerative metathesis reaction (near equilibrium after 47 h at 51 °C). The 13C label of isobutylene was shown to grow into the methylene group of methylene cyclohexane [29]. 

Imido zwitterionic titanium complexes, Ti=NAr[CH3B(C6F5)3], undergo reaction with carbon dioxide to give isocyanates and symmetrical carbodiimides via a ligand metathesis... 

Alkyhdene derivatives of titanium and of phosphorus catalyse methylene exchange between olefins. Although exchange of CH2 groups is not useful for synthesis, these systems provide insight into the mechanisms of alkylidene exchange, a basic step in conventional metathesis. Titanacyclobutenes have been isolated from reactions of acetylenes with methylene-titanium complexes but titanacyclobutanes, the assumed intermediate for the case of olefins, have not been isolated. Bis(cyclopentadiene)titanacyclohexane decomposes to produce ethylene as the major product apparently via a-C-C bond cleavage. ... 

The macrocyclic calix[4]arene complex (Ti(Bu -calix[4]arene))2 was prepared from Ti(NMe2)4 and the neutral ligand. One of the four O atoms of each ligand bridges the two titanium centers.673 The related complex TiCl(But-calix[4]arene(0Me)(0)3) (61) was synthesized by a salt metathesis reaction. Subsequent displacement of the Cl by alkyl or aryl groups was readily accomplished.674... 

Generally, monoalkyl and monoaryl titanium complexes are prepared by salt metathesis reactions, although other methods of synthesis more sophisticated than this usual procedure are also employed. 

These titanium compounds can be described as an alkene 7r-complex or a metallacyclopropane, which is of practical importance. According to several computational studies, it has been concluded that the alkene titanium complexes are best represented as titanacyclopropane derivatives. The synthesis of titanium-alkyne complexes Ti(Me3SiC=CG6H13)(OR)2 from reaction between l-(trimethylsilyl)oct-l-yne with achiral or chiral alkoxo titanium compounds Ti(OR)4 has been described (Scheme 95).184 A series of organotitanium compounds (Scheme 96) are obtained by metathesis reactions.41... 

The bis-Cp dichloro complexes with (diisopropylamino)ethyl-functionalized Cp rings have been synthesized by metathesis reaction between the lithium salt of the Cp ring and TiCl4. Dialkyl and diphenoxo titanium complexes are also prepared (Scheme 466). The chloro complexes are pre-catalysts in the polymerization of ethylene.1094... 

Arylamido complexes of a general formula of Cp Zr[N(Ar)SiMe3]Cl2 can be obtained in a similar fashion. Thus, the reaction of Cp MCl3 with 1 equiv. of Li[N(Ar)SiMe3] produces complexes 31248 and 313.252 The difluoride 312 was prepared by metathesis reaction of the dichloride and Me3SnF. Upon activation with MAO, all complexes are active for polymerization of ethylene within complexes 312, the zirconium complexes are much more active than the analogous hafnium complexes, whereas within complexes 313, the zirconium complex exhibits poor activity as compared with the analogous titanium complex.
