Isolation and characterization of the first bis(2-pyridyl)carbyltitanium(iv) complex derived from the C–O bond cleavage of the alkoxide ligand in Cp*TiMe2(OCMePy2). X-Ray crystal structure of [Cp*Ti(μ-O)(CMePy2)]2 (Cp* = C5Me5)†
Abstract
The reaction of Cp*TiMe2(OCMePy2) with one equivalent of xylylisocyanide (xylyl = 2,6-dimethylphenyl) affords the first bis(2-pyridyl)carbyl titanium(IV) as final complex in which the
