Abstract
Reaction of Nb(CHSiMe3)(NAr)[OC(CF3)3](PMe3)2 (Ar = 2,6-Me2C6H3, C6F5) with 3-hexyne (10 equiv) afforded alkyne coordinated species, Nb(NAr)[OC(CF3)3](EtC═CEt)(PMe3)2, accompanied by formation of 1-trimethylsilyl-2,3,4,5-tetraethyl-1,3-cyclopentadiene, which was inactive for 3-hexyne polymerization. In contrast, the neophylidene analogue Nb(CHCMe2Ph)(NC6F5)[OC(CF3)3](PMe3)2 enabled polymerizations of 3-hexyne, 4-octyne, and 5-decyne to proceed efficiently in a controlled manner without formation of inactive species.
期刊介绍:
Organometallics is the flagship journal of organometallic chemistry and records progress in one of the most active fields of science, bridging organic and inorganic chemistry. The journal publishes Articles, Communications, Reviews, and Tutorials (instructional overviews) that depict research on the synthesis, structure, bonding, chemical reactivity, and reaction mechanisms for a variety of applications, including catalyst design and catalytic processes; main-group, transition-metal, and lanthanide and actinide metal chemistry; synthetic aspects of polymer science and materials science; and bioorganometallic chemistry.
