摘要
The sulfur-linked bis(phenol) 2,2'-thiobis(2-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol), tbmpH(2), reacted cleanly with titanium tetrachloride to give the orange titanium dichloro complex [Ti(tbmp)Cl-2](2) in virtually quantitative yield. Reaction of the dichloro, complex [Ti(tbmp)Cl-2](2) with methyllithium. at low temperature gave the unexpectedly thermally robust, yellow dimethyl complex [Ti(tbmp)Me-2]. The reaction of the dichloro complex with benzyl Grignard reagent in pentane afforded the highly crystalline dibenzyl complex [Ti(tbmp)(CH2Ph)(2)] as a 1,4-dioxane adduct. The single crystal X-ray crystallography revealed a centrosymmetric 1,4-dioxane-bridged molecule that contains two fragments containing six-coordinate titanium centers with the tridentate tbmp ligand in a facial fashion and two eta(1)-benzyl ligands. When [Ti(tbmp)Me-2] was activated with B(C6F5)(3) in toluene, ethylene was polymerized. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
