(Received 10 August 2010; accepted 19 August 2010; online 28 August 2010)

The title compound, [Zr(C5H5)2(C4H9N)(C5H5N)], was obtained from the reaction of (C5H5)2Zr(py)(η2-Me3SiC2SiMe3) (py is pyridine) and tBuN=C=NtBu alongside the formation of (C5H5)2Zr(CNtBu)(η2-Me3SiC2SiMe3). The zirconium atom is coordinated in a distorted tetra­hedral geometry by two cyclo­penta­dienyl ligands, a pyridine ligand, and a tert-butyl­imido ligand via a Zr=N double bond. The tert-butyl group is disordered over two positions in a 0.634 (5):0.366 (5) ratio.

Comment top

We studied the reaction of several carbodiimides with metallocene precursors as (C5H5)2M(η2-Me3SiC2SiMe3) (M = Ti, Zr) to synthesize and characterize new metallacycles with heteroatoms. In this case the reaction revealed a C—N bond cleavage which resulted in two products. Additionally to (C5H5)2Zr(py)(NtBu) the complex (C5H5)2Zr(CNtBu)(η2-Me3SiC2SiMe3) was found which was described by Bach et al. (2007).

The title compound consists of a zirconium center coordinated by two cyclopentadienyl ligands, a stabilizing pyridine and a tert-butyl imido ligand. The geometry at the zirconium atom is distorted tetrahedral (main deviations from the expected value of 109.47° are obtained in N1—Zr1—N2 95.64 (6)° and Cp—Zr1—Cp 123.9°). Bond lengths and angles can be compared to the thf stabilized complex (C5H5)2Zr(thf)(NtBu) described by Walsh et al. (1993). The bond lengths Zr1—N1 with 1.843 (2) Å and N1—C1 with 1.434 (3) Å are not significantly different compared to those of (C5H5)2Zr(thf)(NtBu) (Zr—N 1.826 (4) and N—C 1.449 (6) Å). In the title compound the Zr1—N1—C1 angle of 168.93 (13)° is about 5° smaller than the corresponding angle found for the almost linear tert-butyl imido ligand in (C5H5)2Zr(thf)(NtBu).

Experimental top

To a solution of 235 mg (0.5 mmol) (C5H5)2Zr(py)(η2-Me3SiC2SiMe3) in 10 ml of n-hexane was added dropwise 0.1 ml (0.5 mmol) of tBuN=C=NtBu. The reaction mixture was allowed to stand for 16 h. During this period the solution turned red and yellow crystals were formed which were isolated, washed with cold n-hexane and dried in vacuo. Yield: 46% (85 mg, 0.229 mmol).

Refinement top

All H atoms were placed in idealized positions with d(C—H) = 0.98 (CH3) and 0.95 Å (CH) and refined using a riding model with Uiso(H) fixed at 1.5 Ueq(C) for CH3 and 1.2 Ueq(C) for CH.

Special details top

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