Notes:
Tris(aminopyridinato) zirconium and ansa-aminopyridinato titanium complexes have been sythesized. The reaction of (TMS-APy)3-Zr-Cl (4-methyl-2-trimethylsilyl-aminopyridine=TMS-APy-H) with trimethylsilylbutadiynyl lithium generated in situ affords (TMS-APy)3—Zr—C≡C—C≡C—TMS (1). (TMS-apy)3-Zr-Me2 (2). Compound 2 shows an agostic interaction of the dimethylamido moiety. The reaction of Ti(NMe,2),4 with silox(Apy-H)21,3-di(4′-picolin-2′-yl-amino)-1,1,3,3-tetraisopropyldisiloxane=silox (APy-H)2] gives rise to silox(Apy)2-Ti-(NMe2)2-Ti-[NMe,2)2 (3). Complex 3 reacts with ε-caprolactam to form a caprolactamato complex (4). X-ray crystal structure analyses of 1, 2, 3 and 4 are reported. The complexes 1, 2, 3 and 4 may be considered to be strained donor-functionalized amido(metal) complexes due to the η2 binding mode of the ligand cores, TMS-APy and silox(APy)2, to meet the requirements of the ancillary coordinated substrates is observed. Thus, aminopyridinato complexes seem to be valuable model compounds for investigations of ligand-substrate communications in early transition metal chemistry.
