Abstract

Ti(IV) and Ti(III) complexes using the tBuPCP ligand have been synthesized (tBuPCP = C6H3-2,6-(CH2Pt Bu2)2). The [ tBuPCP]Li synthon can be reacted with TiCl4(THF)2 to form (tBuPCP)TiCl3 (1) in limited yields due to significant reduction of the titanium synthon. The Ti(III) complex (tBuPCP)TiCl2 (2) has been further characterized. This can have half an equivalent of halide abstracted to form [{(tBuPCP)TiCl}2{μ-Cl}][B(C6F5)4] (3) and can also be methylated, forming (tBuPCP)TiMe2 (4). All the Ti(III) complexes have been characterized using EPR and X-ray crystallography, giving insight into their electronic structures, which are further supported by DFT calculations.
