“…Meunier et al have shown that early metal chalcogenates can be derived from the reaction of metallocene-dialkyls with elemental S, Se, or Te . In attempts to effect similar sulfur insertion into Ti−Me bonds, the reaction of ( t -Bu 3 PN) 2 TiMe 2 13 with S 8 in toluene was performed.…”
A series of titanium-phosphinimide thiolate complexes were prepared employing either thiolate for chloride metathesis or protonolysis of metal-carbon bonds by thiols. In these ways the following species were obtained:Reactions of (t-Bu 3 PN) 2 TiMe 2 with 1 equiv of HSCH 2 Ph gave a cyclometalated species 17, (t-Bu 3 PN) 2 Ti(η 2 -SCHPh). The analogous reaction of 1 equiv of phenylthiol generated the species (t-Bu 3 PN) 2 Ti(Me)(SPh) 18. While 17 and 18 could not be isolated free of 14 and 15, respectively, the analogous reaction of tert-butylthiol afforded (t-Bu 3 PN) 2 Ti(Me)(St-Bu) 19 cleanly. Attempts to effect sulfur insertion into Ti-Me bonds were undertaken via the reaction of (t-Bu 3 PN) 2 TiMe 2 with S 8 but gave instead the species (t-Bu 3 PN) 2 Ti(η 2 -S 5 ) 20. The reactivity of the thiolate derivatives, 3-5 with excess AlMe 3 , was examined. Spectroscopic and crystallographic studies revealed the formation of (CpTi(µ-SR)(µ-NPi-Pr 3 )(C)(AlMe 2 ) 2 -(µ-SR)AlMe (R ) CH 2 Ph 21, Ph 22, t-Bu 23). Analogous reactions of 7 and 8 with AlMe 3 afforded [Cp(i-Pr 3 PN)Ti(SRS)]‚(AlMe 3 ) 3 (R ) (CH 2 ) 3 24, ((CH 2 ) 2 (C 6 H 4 )) 25). The mechanistic implications of the observed multiple C-H bond activation are considered. Crystallographic studies of 4, 6, 7, 14, 16, and 20-23 are reported.

“…Arnold and co-workers have shown that [Cp 2 Zr{TeC(SiMe 3 ) 3 } 2 ] forms in situ at low temperature (−60 °C) but could not be isolated as it undergoes elimination of Te at around −20 °C in solution . Aryl tellurolates such as [Cp 2 M(TePh) 2 ] and [Cp 2 M( o -C 6 H 4 Te 2 )] (M = Ti, Zr or Hf) and the bulky silyltellurolates [Cp 2 M{TeSi(SiMe 3 ) 3 } 2 ] (M = Ti or Zr) represent the only related tellurolate complexes . Attempts to prepare the corresponding [Cp 2 Ti(TeBu t ) 2 ] using a similar method failed, with addition of the LiTeBu t solution leading to reduction to a dark blue Ti(III) species.…”
The selenolate and tellurolate complexes [Cp2M(SeR)2] (M = Ti, Zr, or Hf; R = Me or But) and [Cp2M(TeBut)2] (M = Zr or Hf) have been prepared and characterized by 1H, 13C{1H}, 77Se{1H} and 125Te{1H} NMR spectroscopy and microanalysis. Crystal structures of representative examples are reported, together with the structure of the oxo-bridged species [{Cp2Zr(SeMe)}2(μ-O)] formed by partial hydrolysis. Trends in the NMR parameters are discussed. These molecular [Cp2M(SeBut)2] complexes are shown to be suitable as precursors for the single source LPCVD of intensely colored MSe2 thin films for each of the Group 4 elements, confirmed by SEM/EDX and PXD. These are the first examples of single source CVD of ZrSe2 and HfSe2 thin films. The corresponding [Cp2M(TeBut)2] species (M = Zr or Hf) deposit elemental Te under similar LPCVD conditions.
“…13,15 Special interest was focussed on zirconocene dichalcogenides although high temperatures were required for the complex formation. 3,[15][16][17] Access to titanium and hafnium analogues through transmetallation decreased their overall yields dramatically to 40%, 18 and therefore the use of dilithium salts of diselenolate ligands with metallocene dichlorides was a good compromise for simple synthetic design and achieving high yields. 19 Few examples are found in the literature involving sulfur and tellurium analogue species.…”
were prepared and characterized by 77 Se NMR spectroscopy and the crystal structures of 1-3 and 5 were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystal structure of 4 is known and the complex is isomorphous with 5. 1-5 form mutually similar macrocyclic tetranuclear complexes in which the alternating Fe(C 5 H 4 Se) 2 and M(C 5 H 4 R) 2 centers are linked by selenium bridges. The thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) of 1-3 under a helium atmosphere indicated that the complexes undergo a two-step decomposition upon heating. The final products were identified using powder X-ray diffraction as Fe x MSe 2 , indicating their potential as single-source precursors for functional materials.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
