The reaction of [Ti(η 5 -C 5 Me 4 SiMe 2 Cl)Cl 3 ] (1) with 1 equiv of different ethylenediamines, NHR-(CH 2 ) 2 NR 0 R 00 , regiospecifically affords cyclopentadienyl-silyl-amido derivatives with constrainedgeometry, [Ti{η 5 -C 5 Me 4 SiMe 2 -κ-N(CH 2 ) 2 NR 0 R 00 }Cl 2 ] (R 0 =R 00 =H, 2a; R 0 =H, R 00 =Me, 2b; R 0 = R 00 =Me, 2c) or unstrained structure, [Ti{η 5 -C 5 Me 4 SiMe 2 NMe(CH 2 ) 2 -κ-NMe}Cl 2 ] (3). Treatment of 1 with 1.5 equiv of ethylenediamine gives a mixture of 2a and the transient complex [Ti{η 5 -C 5 Me 4 SiMe 2 NH(CH 2 ) 2 NH 2 }Cl 3 ] (4), which is transformed into 2a upon addition of a base. The reaction of 1 with N,N,N 0 -trimethylethylenediamine permits the synthesis and isolation of the complex [Ti{η 5 -C 5 Me 4 SiMe 2 NMe(CH 2 ) 2 NMe 2 }Cl 3 ] (5). Compound 1 reacts with 0.5 equiv of NH 2 (CH 2 ) 2 NH 2 to yield a mixture of 2a along with the tethered dinuclear cyclopentadienyl-silyl-amido compound [Ti{η 5 -C 5 Me 4 SiMe 2 -κ-N(CH 2 )-}Cl 2 ] 2 (6).Currently, there is a continuous and increasing interest in the chemistry of transition metal compounds bearing ancillary polydentate ligands. 1-5 Modification of the ligand environment at the metal centers has enabled the preparation of new generations of polymerization catalyst precursors with excellent performance. 6-14 Among the multidentate ligands most widely studied, a prominent class consists of bifunctional cyclopentadienyl ligands incorporating neutral or anionic appended donor substituents. [15][16][17][18] The relevance of this research area is inferred from the numerous reviews of derivatives of this type recently published. 1,3,16,17 This field has largely been stimulated by the remarkable success of the group 4 metal "constrained-geometry" complexes as alternative catalysts to the classical bis-(cyclopentadienyl) systems 19-22 (MCp 2 X 2 ) for R-olefin polymerization processes. 23,24 One of our ongoing research lines is focused on the development of a new, efficient, and versatile alternative strategy to prepare transition metal complexes containing a bifunctional cyclopentadienyl ligand, 25 based on protonolysis reactions of M-Cl and Si-Cl bonds from chlorosilylsubstituted cyclopentadienyl compounds, 26-28 in reactions with ‡Correspondence concerning the crystallography data should be addressed to this author.
