Germany Abstract Chiral, biphenyl-bridged metallocene complexes of general type biph(3,4-R2CsH2)2MCI2 (biph = 1,1'-biphenyldiyI) were synthesized and characterized. For the dimethyl-substituted titanocenes and zirconocenes (R CH 3; M Ti, Zr). preparations with increafed overall yields and an optical resolution method were developed. The bis(2-tetrahydroindenyI) complexes (R,R = (CH2)4; M = Ti, Zr) were obtained by an alternative synthetic route and characterized with regard to their crystal structures. Syntheses of the phenyl-substituted derivatives (R C 6 H 5; M Ti, Zr) and of a chiral, methyl-substituted vanadocene complex (R CH 3; M V) are also reported.

  • Willcox, Darren (2014) Novel Organoalanes in Organic Synthesis
    Novel Organoalanes in Organic Synthesis and Mechanistic Insight in Conjugate Addition DARREN WILLCOX, MSci Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of doctor of Philosophy March 2014 Abstract This thesis describes the development of novel aluminium hydrides (HAlCl2•Ln) and organoalanes (Cl2AlCH=CHR and ClMeAlCH=CHR) for organic synthesis, as well as exploring the mechanism by which copper-catalysed conjugate addition proceed with diethylzinc and triethylaluminium. In Chapter 1, the mechanism of copper-catalysed conjugate addition of diethylzinc to cyclohexenone and nickel- catalysed 1,2-addition of trimethylaluminium to benzaldehyde has been studied. The kinetic behaviour of the systems allows insight into which metal to ligand ratio provides the fastest rest state structure of the catalyst to enter the rate determining step. The ligand order in these reactions (derived from these ligand optimisation plots) provides information about the molecularity within the transition state. In Chapter 2, the synthesis of somewhat air-stabilised aluminium hydrides and their subsequent use in palladium- catalysed cross-coupling is described. Stabilised aluminium t i hydrides of the type HAlCl2•Ln, [HAl(O Bu)2] and [HAl(N Bu2)]2 were synthesised. The hydroalumination of terminal alkynes was optimal using bis(pentamethylcyclopentdienyl) zirconocene dichloride, resulting in a highly regio- and stereo- 2 chemical synthesis of alkenylalanes which undergo highly efficient palladium-catalysed cross-coupling with a wide range of sp2-electrophiles. Chapter 3, describes conjugate addition chemistry of ClXAlCH=CHR (X = Cl or Me) under phosphoramidite/ copper(I) conditions (X = Me). Highly enantioselective additions to cyclohexenones (89-98+% ee) were attained. A highly efficient racemic addition of the alkenylalanes (X = Cl) to alkylidene malonates occurs without catalysis.

S. MICHIGAN STATE UNIVERSITY MIEN HSIAO PENG 1976 ABSTRACT PART ONE PHOTOLYTIC CYCLOPENTADIENYL LIGAND EXCHANGE BETWEEN BIS(CYCLOPENTADIENYL)ZIRCONIUM DICHLORIDE AND ITS ANALOG SYSTEMS PART TWO ‘ PHOTOCHEMICAL REACTIONS OF BIS(CYCLOPENTADIENYL)DIPHENYL TITANIUM(IV) By Mien Hsiao Peng PART ONE Irradiation of the mixture of zirconocene dichloride and (0-10)- zirconocene dichloride in benzene solution leads to the exchange of cyclopentadienyl ligands under conditions of constant incident light intensity. A 450 watt meadium pressure mercury-vapor lamp, Hanovia #679 A 0360, was used as the light source which emitted 313 nm light by through the filter solution cells. The lamp and filter cells were mounted inside a merry-go-round rotator. The photolytic formation of (D-S)-zirconocene dichloride was detected by mass spectrometry. A quantum yield for the ligand exchange of 0.02l mol/Ei was calculated by using the McKay analysis based on mass spectrographic data within suitable irradiation time. The equilibrium constant was 2.8. Zirconocene dichloride was found to exchange cyclopentadienyl ligand photolytically with bis(methylcyclopentadienyl)zirconium di- chloride with the constant for approach to equilibrium 2.3. PART TWO Photolysis of diphenyl titanocene, resulting in loss of phenyl ligands. is a generally useful approach to the generation of coordi- natively unsaturated complex species. The low temperature nuclear magnetic resonance method was employed to investigate the transient titanocene. The course of photoreaction was followed by using the electron paramagnetic resonance method at low temperature and room temperature.

  • The Use of Functionalized Zirconocenes As Precursors to Silica-Supported Zirconocene Olefin Polymerization Catalysts
    THE USE OF FUNCTIONALIZED ZIRCONOCENES AS PRECURSORS TO SILICA-SUPPORTED ZIRCONOCENE OLEFIN POLYMERIZATION CATALYSTS by Cheng, Xu A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Chemistry Paul A. Deck, Chairman Karen J. Brewer Brian E. Hanson Timothy E. Long James M. Tanko Dec. 10th, 2001 Department of Chemistry Virginia Tech Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: Synthesis, Organometallic, Zirconocene, Stannyl, Silyl, Electrophilic Substitution, Hydrolysis, Polyolefin Catalyst, MAO, Immobilization, Silica, Leaching Copyright 2001, Cheng, Xu Abstract Me3Si substituents adjacent to Cp2MCl2 (M = Ti, Zr, Hf) are converted to BrMe2Si groups using BBr3. The high reactivity of the Si-Br bonds toward nucleophiles such as water suggested that these substituents could react with hydroxylated silica surfaces, immobilizing the metallocenes. This dissertation concerns the syntheses of electrophile-functionalized zirconocene dihalide complexes and their use as precursors to silica-supported metallocene olefin polymerization catalysts. First we extended the metallocene “functionalization” chemistry to obtain substituents bearing more than one electrophilic bond. (Me3Sn)2C5H4 combined with CpZrCl3 in toluene to 5 afford (h -Me3Sn-C5H4)CpZrCl2 (A). Reactions of A with electrophiles (E-X = Cl2B-Cl, I-Cl, 5 and I-I) afforded (h -XMe2Sn-C5H4)CpZrCl2 (and E-Me) cleanly. The reaction of A with BBr3 5 5 afforded either (h -BrMe2Sn-C5H4)CpZrBr2 (25 °C, 10 min) or (h -Br2MeSn-C5H4)CpZrBr2 (25 5 °C, 15 h). Ph2MeSi-C5H4Li combined with ZrCl4•2THF to afford (h -Ph2MeSi-C5H4)2ZrCl2 (B). The reaction of B with BCl3 led to incomplete cleavage of the Ph-Si bonds, however treatment of 5 5 B with BBr3 afforded (h -Br2MeSi-C5H4)2ZrBr2 (C) efficiently.
