{N,N-Bis[bis(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)phosphanyl]methylamine-κ2P,P′}bis(η5-cyclopentadienyl)titanium(II)
Abstract
The title compound, [Ti(C5H5)2(C9H11F12NO4P2)], is a four-membered titanacycle obtained from the reaction of Cp2Ti(η2-Me3SiC2SiMe3) and CH3N[P(OCH2CF3)2]2 {N,N-bis[bis(trifluoroethoxy)phosphanyl]methylamine, tfepma}. The TiII atom is coordinated by two cyclopentadienyl (Cp) ligands and the chelating tfepma ligand in a strongly distorted tetrahedral geometry. The molecule is located on a mirror plane.
