The title compound, [Ti(C₁₅H₂₃N₂Si)Cl₃]·0.5C₄H₈O, has been prepared from {2-[2-(η⁵-cyclopentadienyl)-2-methylpropyl]-1H-imidazolyl-κN¹}bis(N,N-diethylamido-κN)titanium(IV), (C₁₂H₁₄N₂)Ti(NEt₂)₂, by reaction with excess of Me₃SiCl in tetrahydrofuran (THF) at 353 K. The crystal structure contains THF as adduct solvent, disordered around a center of inversion. The presence of THF and the adduct ratio has been independently supported by ¹H NMR spectroscopy. The coordination polyhedron of the Ti atom is distorted square-pyramidal, assuming the cyclopentadienyl (Cp) ring occupies one coordination site. The Ti, Si and CH₂ group C atoms only deviate slightly from the imidazole ring plane [by 0.021 (4), 0.133 (4) and 0.094 (4) Å, respectively]. Comparison of the principal geometric parameters with those of the few known structurally characterized analogues reveal small differences in bond lengths and angles at the Ti atom. The title complex is only stable in THF-d₈ in the presence of excess Me₃SiCl, otherwise it exists in an equilibrium with equimolar amounts of dichlorido{2-[2-(η⁵-cyclopentadienyl)-2-methylpropyl]-1H-imidazolyl-κN³}titanium(IV) and chlorotrimethylsilane.

Cyclopentadienes (Cp-s) with pendant 1H-imidazol(in)-2-yl side-chain functional groups and the Group 4 transition metal complexes of general type [η⁵-Cp-(C₂-link)-imidazol(in)e)-κN³]-M^IVCl₃ (M = Ti, Zr), (A), based on them were described not long ago (Krut'ko et al., 2006; Nie et al., 2008). All Ti and Zr complexes reported in these papers possess Me-groups at the N1 atoms and were prepared by reactions of metal tetrachlorides with monolithium- or trimethylsilyl-derivatives of parent cyclopentadienes. Recently a synthetic approach to η⁵-Cp-tris(sec-amido)Ti^IV type complexes of general formula [η⁵-Cp-(C_{1 or 2}-link)-imidazolyl-κN¹]-M^IV(NEt₂)₂, (B), was suggested (Wang et al., 2009). Here we report on the crystal structure of trichloro{2-[2-(η⁵-cyclopentadienyl)-2-methylpropyl]-1-trimethylsilyl-1H-imidazole-κN³}titanium(IV) that crystallizes as an 1:0.5 adduct with tetrahydrofuran (THF) (I), which was prepared by a reaction with chlorotrimethylsilane via a facile (B) to (A) conversion method. The molecular structure of (I) is discussed in comparison with those of its few known analogues.

Complex (I) was prepared by treatment of [2-[2-(η⁵-cyclopentadienyl)-2-methylpropyl]-1H-imidazolyl-κN¹]bis(N,N-diethylamido-κN)titanium(IV), (C₁₂H₁₄N₂)Ti(NEt₂)₂, (II), with excess of Me₃SiCl in a THF medium at elevated temperature (see Fig. 2 and Experimental for details). The presence of THF in the crystal and the adduct ratio were not evident in the structure solution and refinement stages but were independently supported by ¹H NMR spectroscopy data [multiplets at δ(H) 1.78 and 3.62 p.p.m. with both of the relative integral intensities corresponding to 2 H]. The THF molecule was found and located using SQUEEZE in the PLATON program package (Spek, 2009) which retrieved two voids at (1/2, 0, 1/2) and (1/2, 1/2, 1) (each of 180 Å³ and 42ē; total electron count per unit cell 84ē). In the final structure model, the adduct solvent molecule was treated as disordered around a center of inversion (1/2, 0, 1/2) (see Refinement section for details).

An analysis in the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD; Version 5.27, release February 2009; Allen, 2002) reveals only 4 structurally characterized Ti^IV complexes of the similar η⁵-CpTiCl₃-NR_n type (4 independent fragments): trichloro{2-[2-(η⁵-cyclopentadienyl)-2,2-diphenylethyl]-1-methyl-1H-imidazole-κN³}titanium(IV), C₂₃H₂₁Cl₃N₂Ti, (III), (Krut'ko et al., 2006); trichloro{1-[2-(η⁵-cyclopentadienyl)ethyl]pyrrolidine-κN}titanium(IV), C₁₁H₁₆Cl₃NTi, (IV), (Herrmann et al., 1995); trichloro[8-(η⁵-2,3,4,5-tetramethylcyclopentadienyl)quinoline-κN]titanium(IV), C₁₈H₁₈Cl₃NTi, (V), (Enders et al., 1997); and trichloro[8-(η⁵-2,3-dimethylcyclopentadienyl)quinoline-κN]titanium(IV), C₁₆H₁₄Cl₃NTi, (VI), (Enders et al., 1996).

All complexes of question exhibit one and the same structural motif. They are mononuclear complexes, with the coordination environment of the Ti-atoms being a distorted square pyramid (assuming Cp-rings occupy one coordination site; "four-leg piano stool"). Contents of the unit cells are presented by pairs of enantiomorphic conformers connected by inversion symmetry operations. In all complexes under discussion, ligating N-atoms are linked to Cp-groups with a C₂ [(IV)-(VI)] or C₃ [(I) and (III)] bridges. Noteworthy, that no structurally characterized complexes of type η⁵-CpTiCl₃-NR_n with a non-linked to Cp NR_n functionality are known at the moment.

Compounds (I) and (III) represent a pair of the "closest relatives", and, despite of the evident differences in their chemical structure (CPh₂ against CMe₂ and NMe against NSiMe₃), the geometrical parameters of the coordination environment of the Ti-atoms and imidazole rings nearly match (see Table 1). This is the same for the torsion angles in the bridge [C4—C5—C11—C12 and C1—C4—C5—C11 in (I) and the related angles in (III); compare –136.8 (3) and 64.3 (3)° in (I) with –135.21 (4) and 61.22 (5)° in (III)]. However, while in the main molecule of (I), the Ti-, Si- and CH₂-group carbon atoms deviate only slightly from the imidazole ring r. m. s. plane [PL2; by 0.022 (5), 0.133 (4) and 0.094 (5) Å, respectively], the Ti-atom in (III) noticeably deviates from the imidazole r. m. s. plane (by 0.608 Å) what could be, at the first glance, explained by a mutual repulsion of the spatially adjacent imidazole and phenyl rings. Another difference in the crystal structures of (I) and (III) is due to the presence of a bulky SiMe₃ group in (I). These groups are stretched outwards of the main molecule and "pump up" the unit cell volume [compare V = 2205.2 (4) Å³ in (I) with 2098.8, 1304.8, 1567.9, and 1749.9 Å³ in (III)-(VI), respectively] what causes appearance of voids suitable for THF molecules.

Elongation of the bridge from C₂ [in (IV)-(VI)] to C₃ [in (I) and (III)] has a little effect on the Ti1—PL1 (or Cp_cent; PL1 and Cp_cent denote r.m.s. plane and centroid of the Cp-ring, respectively) distances, as well as on the angle Cl2–Ti1–Cp_cent and "cis-angles" Cl2–Ti1–Cl1, Cl2–Ti1–Cl3, Cl1–Ti1–N2, and Cl3–Ti1–N2. However, the angles N2–Ti1–Cp_cent in (I) and (III) are expanded by approximately 10° compared to those in (IV)-(VI) while the "trans-angle" Cl2–Ti1–N2 is tightened by the same value. The angles Cl1–Ti1–Cp_cent and Cl3–Ti1–Cp_cent in (I) and (III) are decreased by approximately 5° comparatively to those in (IV)-(VI) while the "trans-angle" Cl1–Ti1–Cl3 is increased by approximately 10°.

Experimental top

All operations were performed in all-sealed evacuated glass vessels with application of the high-vacuum line (the residual pressure of non-condensible gases within 1.5–1.0×10 ^-3 Torr range, 1 Torr = 133.322 Pa). Complex (II) was prepared as described in our earlier work (Wang et al., 2009). THF and THF-d₈ were kept with disodium benzophenone ketyl and transferred into reaction vessels and/or NMR tubes on the high-vacuum line by trapping the vapour with liq. N₂. Chlorotrimethylsilane was refluxed with and kept over CaH₂ and transferred into reaction vessels in a similar way. — NMR spectra were recorded on Varian INOVA-400 instrument. For ¹³C{¹H}and ¹H NMR spectra, the ¹³C and residual proton resonance of the d-solvent [δ_H = 1.73 and δ_C = 25.3 (THF-d₈)] were used as internal reference standards.

Complex (I): To a solution of (II) (0.282 g, 0.75 mmol) in THF (20 ml), an excess of Me₃SiCl (0.6 ml, 4.71 mmol) was added at approx. 253 K. An immediate precipitation of a yellow fine-crystalline solid occurred. The reaction mixture was then heated at 353 K until all the solid dissolved, the volume was reduced two times and the mother liquor was allowed to cool gradually along with the water bath down to ambient temperature. On the walls of the reaction vessel well formed bright-orange crystals grew. The orange mother liquor was removed from the crystals by decantation, the solid was rinsed once with cold (253 K) THF and the crystals were quickly dried by trapping all volatiles with liquid N₂. Yield 0.275 g (82%). — ¹H NMR (THF-d₈, 296 K): δ = 0.58 [s, 9 H, Si(CH₃)₃], 1.30 [s, 6 H, C(CH₃)₂], 1.78 (m, 2 H, 3- and 4-CH₂ in THF), 3.25 (s, CH₂), 3.62 (broadened m, 2 H, 2- and 5-CH₂ in THF), 6.91 (broadened m, 4 H, C₅H₄), 6.95, 7.52 (both broadened d, 1 H + 1 H, ³J_HH = 2.3 Hz, CH in imidazole). — ¹³C{¹H} NMR (THF-d₈, 296 K): δ = 0.09 [Si(CH₃)₃], 28.81 (C(CH₃)₂), 36.11 (CH₂), 41.72 [C(CH₃)₂], 119.99, 131.05 (CH in imidazole), 122.71, 124.49 (CH in C₅H₄, double intensity), 145.72 (C in C₅H₄), 149.73 (C in imidazole). — Admixture of (VII): ¹H NMR (THF-d₈, 296 K): δ = 1.26 [s, 6 H, C(CH₃)₂], 3.15 (s, CH₂), 6.87, 6.92 (both broadened virt. t, 4 H, ^{3 + 4}J_HH =2.7 Hz, C₅H₄), 6.96, 7.48 (both broadened unresolved d, 1 H + 1 H, CH in imidazole). — Admixture of Me₃SiCl: ¹H NMR (THF-d₈, 296 K): δ = 0.41 [s, 9 H, Si(CH₃)₃]. — ¹³C{¹H} NMR (THF-d₈, 296 K): δ = 3.10 [Si(CH₃)₃]. Content of complex (VII) and Me₃SiCl in the reaction mixture is 16% (mol.) Low concentration of (VII) made its signals in ¹³C{¹H} NMR spectrum of the equilibrium mixture invisible.

Single crystal of I suitable for X-ray diffraction analysis were picked up directly from the isolated materials (N₂-filled glove-box) and mounted inside a Lindemann glass capillary (diameter 0.5 mm).

Special details top

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F² against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F², conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F². The threshold expression of F² > σ(F²) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F² are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
