Purpose of the Study:

  • Synthesize and characterize novel dititanium complexes.
  • Investigate the impact of ligand structure on complex formation and properties.
  • Explore the reactivity of these dititanium species.

Main Methods:

  • Reaction of free-base bis(amidines) with titanium precursors.
  • Synthesis of hexaamido, mixed amido-chloride, carbamate, and sigma-alkyl derivatives.
  • Characterization using spectroscopic methods and structural studies (X-ray diffraction).

Main Results:

  • Successfully prepared four hexaamido dititanium complexes with dibenzofuran and xanthene backbones.
  • Observed and characterized rotational diastereomers for an unsymmetrical ligand, with thermodynamic preference for one isomer.
  • Synthesized mixed amido-chloride, carbamate, and sigma-alkyl titanium complexes.
  • Reported the formation of a paramagnetic dititanium(III) complex with bridging chlorides.

Conclusions:

  • Dianionic bis(amidinate) ligands provide a robust platform for dititanium complex synthesis.
  • Ligand structure and substitution pattern significantly affect the stereochemistry and properties of the resulting complexes.
  • The synthesized complexes demonstrate diverse reactivity, including carbamate formation and reduction to Ti(III) species.
