AbstractA phenoxy-imine proligand with the additional OH donor group, 4,6-tBu2-2-(2-CH2(OH)-C6H4N = CH)C6H3OH (LH2), was synthesized and used to prepare group 4 and 5 complexes by reacting with Ti(OiPr)4 (LTi) and VO(OiPr)3 (LV). All new compounds were characterized by the FTIR, 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy and LTi by the single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The complexes were used as catalysts in the ring opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone. The influence of monomer/transition metal molar ratio, reaction time, polymerization temperature as well as complex type was investigated in detail. The complexes showed high (LTi) and moderate (LV) activity in ε-caprolactone polymerization and the resultant polycaprolactones exhibited Mn and Mw/Mn values ranging from 4.0 · 103 to 18.7 · 103 g/mol and from 1.4 to 2.5, respectively.

Abstract The reaction of lithium β-diketiminate [{2,6-Me2C6H3N=CMe}2CH]Li with benzophenone in toluene at 25°C affords the coordination complex [{2,6-Me2C6H3N=CMe}2CH]Li(Ph2C=O) (I). New keto-β-diketimine {2,6-Me2C6H3N=C(Me)}2CHC(tert-Bu)=O (II) is synthesized by the reaction of tert-Bu(C=O)Cl with [{2,6-Me2C6H3N=CMe}2CH]Li. The metallation of keto-β-diketimine II with n-butyllithium in THF at 0°C gives lithium keto-β-diketiminate {[{2,6-Me2C6H3N=C(Me)}2CС(tert-Bu)=O]Li(THF)}n (III). The exchange reaction of YCl3 with compound III (molar ratio 1 : 2, THF) affords the yttrium bis(keto-diketiminate) complex [{2,6-Me2C6H3N=C(Me)}2CС(tert-Bu)=O]2Y(μ2-Cl)2L-(THF)2 (IV). The molecular structures of complexes I, III, and IV are determined by X-ray diffraction analysis (CIF files CCDC nos. 2001131 (I), 2001132 (III), and 2001133 (IV)). Complex IV in the crystalline state exists as an ate complex with one LiCl molecule. Complexes I, III, and IV are catalysts of ring-opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone in toluene at 25°С.

The course of the reactions o f fluorophosphaalkenes F3CP = C (F)OR [R = Me (1), Et (2)] with methanol or ethanol strongly depends on the experimental conditions. Thus at 70 °C a mixture of the 2-phosphapropionic acid ester F3CP (H )CO2R [R = Me (3), Et (4)] and trifluoromethylphosphane H2PCF3 is formed [molar ratio: 3 or 4 /H2 CF3 ≈1/1]. If the precursors F3CP (H )CO2R [R = Me (3), Et) are used as starting materials, the reaction with ROH under the same conditions affords 3 and 4, respectively, (90 to 95% yield) with only traces of H2PCF 3. In the presence o f iPr2NH these precursors react with R′OH to give the novel trifluoromethylphosphaalkenes F3CP = C (OR )OR [R /R′: Me/Me (6); E t/E t (7); Me/Et (8)]. With Et2NH , 3 undergoes an addition/elimination process yielding the interesting push/pull system Et2N(F)C = P-CO2Me (5). 1 and 2 react with primary amines R′NH2 (R′= tBu, Me) with stereoselective formation of the fairly labile phosphaalkenes F3CP = C(OR)NHR′ [R /R′: Me/tBu (9), Et/tBu(10), Me/Me (11)] with trans-positions for CF3 and NHR′.The new compounds 3 -11 were characterized by spectroscopic investigations (1H , 19F, 31P, 13C NMR ; IR, MS) and determination of M+ or typical fragment ions [M+ -OR ] by high resolution mass spectrometry.

The silicon-bridged [1]ferrocenophane Fe(η-C5H3SiMe3)2(SiMe2) (5) was synthesized via the reaction of Li2[Fe(η-C5H3SiMe3)2]•tmeda (tmeda = tetramethylethylenediamine) with Me2SiCl2 in hexanes. The disilane-bridged [2]ferrocenophane Fe(η-C5H3SiMe3)2(Si2Me4) (7) was prepared using a similar route from the disilane ClMe2SiSiMe2Cl. Despite the presence of sterically demanding SiMe3 substituents on the cyclopentadienyl rings, compound 5 was found to undergo thermal ring-opening polymerization at 170 °C to produce very soluble, high molecular weight poly(ferrocenylsilane) 6 with Mw = 1.4 × 105, Mn = 8.4 × 104. However, the [2]ferrocenophane 7 was found to be resistant to thermal ring-opening polymerization even at 350 °C and decomposed above 380 °C. A single-crystal X-ray diffraction study of 7 revealed that the steric interactions between the bulky SiMe3 groups are relieved by a significant twisting of the disilane bridge with respect to the plane defined by the centroids of the cyclopentadienyl ligands and the metal atom. The angle between the planes of the cyclopentadienyl rings in 7 was found to be 5.4(6)°, slightly greater than that in the non-silylated analogue Fe(η-C5H4)2(Si2Me4) (4a) (4.19(2)°), and dramatically less than the corresponding tilt angle of the strained, polymerizable, silicon-bridged [1]ferrocenophane Fe(η-C5H4)2(SiMe2) (1) (20.8(5)°). The length of the Si—Si bond in 7 (2.342(3) Å) was found to be close to the sum of the covalent radii (2.34 Å). Crystals of 7 are monoclinic, space group C2/c, with a = 23.689(3) Å, b = 11.174(1) Å, c = 31.027(3) Å, β = 109.16(1)°, V = 7758(2) Å3, and Z = 12. Keywords: ring-opening polymerization, ferrocenophane, organometallic polymers.

A dianionic phenoxyamido ligand was the first to be used to stabilize organo-rare-earth mental amido complex. Amine elimination reaction of La[N(SiMe3)2]3(THF)2 with 3,5-But2-2-HO-C6H2CH-NH-C5H4N in a 1 : 1 molar-ratio gave the anionic phenoxyamido neodymium amide LLa[N(TMS)2]•DME (1) in a high isolated yield. Furthemore, the catalytic behavior of complex 1 for the ring-opening polymerization of rac-lactide was explored.

Reactions of pentamethylantimony (CH3)5Sb with carboxylic acids in the molar ratio 1:2 afford one equivalent of methane and essentially quantitative yields of crystalline tetramothylstibonium hydrogendicarboxylates. Six new compounds of this series have been synthesized using benzoic, o-phthalic, salicylic, 4-ethoxy-salicylic, oxalic, and malic acid, and characterized by analytical and spectroscopic data. An ionic structure with strong hydrogen bonds in the anionic components is proposed.The crystal structures of the hydrogen-dibenzoato (1), hydrogen-ortho-plithalato (2) and 4-ethoxy-hydrogen-salicylate (3) were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The compounds can be described as having ionic lattices with some donor-acceptor inter­actions between the stibonium centers and the carboxylate oxygen atoms. The anions are characterized by strong hydrogen bonds O...H...O. Thus, the (CH3)4Sb-tetrahedron in 1 is distorted by two benzoate oxygon atoms (at 304(2) and 340(2) pin). The cation in 2 is largely undistorted and the anion has a hydrogenphthalate hydrogen bond of d(O...H...O) = 232 pm. The cation-anion contact in 3 is as short as d(Sb-O) = 289 pm rendering the Sb atom pentacoordinate.

The novel zirconatetraferrocenylcyclotrisiloxane Cp2Zr(OSiFc2)2O (6), dizirconatetraferrocenylcyclotetrasiloxane [Cp2Zr(OSiFc2)O]2 (7), boratetraferrocenylcyclotrisiloxane (C6H5)B(OSiFc2)2O (8), and diboratetraferrocenylcyclotetrasiloxane [(C6H5)B(OSiFc2)O]2 (9) with ferrocenyl (Fc = Fe(η-C5H4)(η-C5H5)) substituents at silicon have been prepared from the reactions of Cp2Zr(NMe2)2 and PhBCl2 with diferrocenylsilanediol Fc2Si(OH)2 (3) and tetraferrocenyldisiloxanediol [Fc2SiOH]2O (5). The compounds were characterized by mass spectrometry, elemental analysis, UV–vis, IR, Raman, and multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, as well as single crystal X-ray diffraction. Thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry investigation of 6–9 showed that the cycles decompose before they can undergo any thermal ring-opening polymerization. In addition, no polymerization was detected in the presence of either KOSiMe3 or HOTf. The bulky ferrocenyl substituents on the Si atoms are likely to be at least partially responsible for the inability of these heterocycles to undergo ring-opening polymerization. Key words: heterocyclosiloxanes, ferrocenyl.

Background: The synthesis of the aliphatic polyesters obtained by the ring opening polymerization has been achieved using as initiators a large amount of organometallic compounds derivative from: Alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, transition metals and lanthanide metals. Of all these compounds, the lanthanide derivatives have acquired great importance in the synthesis of aliphatic polyesters, since these show a greater catalytic activity and also can provide polymer with characteristics that will be very useful in the design of biomaterials. Objective: It was proposed the synthesis of poly(L-lactida) (PL-LA) through a ring opening polymerization process of L-lactide initiated with samarium(III) acetate (Sm(OAc)3) under solvent-free melt conditions. The influence of different parameters of reaction, such as temperature, time, molar ratio monomer to initiator, on typical variables of polymers, e.g., conversion, dispersity, and molar mass, were analyzed. Methods: All polymerizations were carried out under solvent-free melt conditions in ampoules-like flasks, equipped with a magnetic stirrer. The obtained polyesters were characterized by size exclusion chromatography (SEC) and 1H-NMR. Results: The Sm(OAc)3 induces the polymerization of L-LA at high conversion, and produce polyesters with number-average molecular weights of 1.00 x 103 to 30.00 x 103 Dalton. The 1H-NMR analysis indicates a typical polymerization mechanism of coordination-insertion, with a breakdown of the acyl-oxygen bond of the L-LA. Conclusion: Sm(OAc)3 was an effective initiator for the ring-opening polymerization of L-LA. SEC chromatography showed that, at high temperatures and prolonged reaction times, the molar mass of the polyester decreases, which is associated with the transesterification collateral reactions that occur during the polymerization process.
