Lewis-Säure/Base Addukte von TiCl4 und Methylpyridinen / Lewis Acid/Base Adducts of TiCl4 and Methylpyridines

Abstract

By the reaction of 2-methyl- and 2,6-dimethylpyridine the first neutral TiCl4L complexes (L = single bonded ligand) could be synthesized. The structures have been determined by single crystal X-ray methods. The best description of the molecular structure is a distorted trigonal bipyramid with the nitrogen base occupying an equatorial position. With 2,4-dimethylpyridine, a 1:2 adduct is formed, where the nitrogen bases are in trans-positions of a TiCl4N2-octahedron, as also confirmed by an X-ray analysis
