Activation of biscyclopentadienyl hydride complexes of titanium and aluminum by NH- and OH-acids in the reactions of hydrogenation of olefins. Crystal and molecular structures of {(η5−Cp)2Ti(μ−H)2AlH]μ−N(C2H4)4O]}2 and [(η5−Cp)2Ti(μ−H(2AlH]2(μ−OC2H4OMe)[(μ15−C5H4)Ti(μ5−Cp)(μ−H)]2*

Abstract

The reactions of Cp2TiH2AlH2·Et2O (1) with HN(C2H4)2O, HOC2H4OMe, and water afforded the complexes {Cp2TiH2AlH[μ-N(C2H4)2O]}2 (5), [Cp2TiH2AlH(μ-OC2H4OMe)]2 (6) and (Cp2TiH2AlH)2O (4), respectively. Compounds 5 and 6 are dimers containing bridging Al−E2−Al fragments (E=N or O). Complex 6 in solution converted to the hexanuclear compound [(η5−Cp)2Ti(μ−H(2AlH]2(μ−OC2H4OMe)[(μ15−C5H4)Ti(μ5−Cp)(μ−H)]2 (8). The structures of complexes 5 and 8 were established by X-ray diffraction analysis. The rates of hydrogenation of hex-1-ene were determined using compounds 4–6 and the complexes [Cp2TiH2AlH(NEt2)]2 and [Cp2TiH2AlH(OEt)]2 as catalysts. The probable mechanism of hydrogenation with the participation of bimetallic hydride complexes of aluminum and titanocene is discussed.
