Sterically encumbered pyrrolyl ligands and their incorporation into the cycloheptatrienyl zirconium coordination sphere

Abstract: An improved synthesis of 2,5-di(tert-butyl)-3,4-dimethylpyrrole (2-H, HPyr(tBu(2)Me(2))) and a subsequent reaction with KH yield K(Pyr(tBu(2)Me(2))) (2-K) in multi-gram quantities. Four different pyrrolyl (Pyr) and imidazolyl (Im) ligands were used in salt metathesis reactions with [(η(7)-C(7)H(7))ZrCl(tmeda)] (7) to afford a series of azatrozircenes: [(η(7)-C(7)H(7))Zr(η(5)-Pyr(tBu(2)))] (1-Zr), [(η(7)-C(7)H(7))Zr(η(5)-Pyr(tBu(2)Me(2)))] (2-Zr), [(η(7)-C(7)H(7))Zr(η(5)-Pyr(tBu(3)))] (3-Zr) and [(η(7)-C(7)H(7)… Show more

“…The NPNPN moiety is η 5 ‐coordinated, with the potassium atom positioned underneath the five‐membered pyrrolyl‐ring; the K1−N1 distance is 3.0234(12) Å and the K−C distances vary in the range 3.0031(14)–3.3160(14) Å. This structural motif is similar to that found for the related potassium pyrrolyl complex [(3,4‐Me 2 ‐2,5‐tBu 2 ‐C4 N)K(18‐crown‐6)] [20] …”

“…The H1⋯O distance is somewhat longer than the 1.99(3) Å in 1-H•THF. 20 The ring C-C bond lengths show the typical short-long-short pattern as previously observed for 1-H 20 and Pyr tBu2Me 2 H. 37 The electron delocalization within the pyrrole system can be deduced from the individual CC bond distances, which are intermediate between the distances of isolated single (d 0 (C-C) = 1.54 Å) 40 and double (d 0 (CvC) = 1.34 Å) 40 bonds. The extent of delocalization within the heterocyclic ring can be described by the parameter τ, the normalized quotient of the single and double bond length (eqn (1)) [41][42][43]…”

“…34 Whereas tetramethylpyrrole reacts with PCl 3 exclusively at the N-atom, 35 phosphorylation of 2,5-dimethylpyrrole occurs exclusively at the C3-position. 34 In our previous contributions we reported on the synthesis of several sterically encumbered pyrrolyls and the subsequent synthesis of several azatrozircenes [(η 7 -C 7 H 7 )Zr(η 5 -Pyr′)] 36,37 and more recently of diazaferrocenes. 38 Herein, we detail the synthesis of phosphinesubstituted pyrroles (Fig.…”
