Synthesis, Structure, and Reactivity of (C5H4SiMe3)2Y{(μ-FC6F4)(μ-Me)B(C6F5)2}:  Tight Ion Pairing in a Cationic Lanthanide Complex

Abstract: The reaction of [Cp′ 2 YMe] 2 (Cp′ ) C 5 H 5 , C 5 H 4 -SiMe 3 ) with B(C 6 F 5 ) 3 affords the complexes Cp′ 2 Y{MeB-(C 6 F 5 ) 3 }. The anion is coordinated in a chelating fashion via one ortho-fluorine atom and agostic interactions to two of the methyl hydrogens; the complexes are highly fluxional in solution. They act as initiators for the carbocationic polymerization of isobutene.

“…Comparatively short bonds La···C1 (2.78(1) ) and La···C2' (2.79(1) ) suggest a tight interaction of the electron-deficient lanthanum cation with the counterion. [24,25] (All hydrogen atoms at the sp 3hybridized C1 and C2 carbon atoms were located and refined isotropically.) The electron deficiency is further substantiated by significantly shortened LaÀC(C 5 Me 5 ) bonds (av.…”

“…However, the potentiality of yttrium complexes for isobutene polymerization has been shown by Bochmann and co-workers who have used a yttrium metallocene complex as cationic initiator. [2] In this paper, we show that lanthanide chlorides can be activated in order to provide efficient catalysts for isobutene polymerization.…”
