On prolonged heating of the Buchwald seven-membered zirconacyclocumulene Cp 2 Zr[η 4 -Me 3 SiC 4 (SiMe 3 )− C(C 2 SiMe 3 )CSiMe 3 ] (1) in toluene at 100 °C, the isomerization of 1 takes place with the formation of a seven-membered zirconacyclocumulene complex, Cp 2 Zr[η 4 -Me 3 SiC 4 (SiMe 3 )−C(SiMe 3 )C(C 2 SiMe 3 )] (8), containing the Me 3 SiCC group in α-position and the SiMe 3 group in β-position with respect to the Zr atom. A remarkable peculiarity of complex 8 is its ability to undergo a rapid degenerate rearrangement at room temperature in toluene solution, as a result of which only two rather than four singlets of the Me 3 Si groups are observed in the 1 H NMR spectrum of 8 under such conditions. At temperatures below 200 K, the rate of this rearrangement decreases and, as a consequence, the 1 H NMR spectrum of 8 acquires the normal view. If 1 is heated at 100 °C in the presence of acetylenes such as 1,4-bis(tert-butyl)butadiyne ( t BuCC−CC t Bu) and tolane, the corresponding seven-membered zirconacyclocumulenes, viz., Cp 2 Zr[η 4 -t BuC 4 ( t Bu)−C(C 2 SiMe 3 )CSiMe 3 ] ( 7) and Cp 2 Zr[η 4 -Me 3 SiC 4 (SiMe 3 )−C(Ph)CPh] (14), are formed along with free Me 3 SiCC−CCSiMe 3 . The interaction of 1 with 1,4diphenylbutadiyne (PhCC−CCPh) at 100 °C leads to the formation of a mixture of products, from which a zirconacyclopentadiene metallacycle, Cp 2 Zr[η 2 -PhCC(C 2 Ph)−C(C 2 Ph)CPh] (10), as well as seven-membered zirconacyclocumulenes Cp 2 Zr[η 4 -PhC 4 (Ph)−C(C 2 SiMe 3 )CSiMe 3 ] (11), Cp 2 Zr[η 4 -Me 3 SiC 4 (SiMe 3 )−C(C 2 Ph)CPh] (12), and Cp 2 Zr[η 4 -PhC 4 (Ph)−C(C 2 Ph)CPh] (13) were isolated. The structures of 8, 9, 10, 12, and 14 have been established by X-ray crystallography. The mechanism of the reactions found is discussed.
