Abstract

The homoleptic metal amides Ti(NEt2)4, Ti(NMe2)4, and Zr(NEt2)4 react with silyl-substituted cyclopentadienes (1-3) and the indene 4 to yield the new half-sandwich complexes 8-16 of type Me2 Si[CpR][NR′]M[NR′'2)2 (M = Ti, Zr). The new ligands have been characterized by 1H, 13C, and 29 Si NMR spectroscopy, IR, and GC-MS with regard to the sigmatropic rearrangements caused by hydrogen and silicon migration. The titanium and zirconium complexes 8-16 were characterized by their 1H, 13C, and 29Si NMR spectra, IR, and mass spectrometry. The capabilities and limitations of the "salt-free" procedure employed here are described.
