Reactions of the titanium-carbide species CpTi(μ2-Me)(μ2-NPi-Pr3)(μ4-C)(AlMe2)3

Abstract The reaction of CpTi(μ 2 -Me)(μ 2 -NP i -Pr 3 )(μ 4 -C)(AlMe 2 ) 3 with ClSnMe 3 and MeO 3 SCF 3 affords the species CpTi(μ 2 -Cl)(μ 2 -NP i -Pr 3 )(μ 4 -C)(μ 2 -Cl)(AlMe)(AlMe 2 ) 2 1 and CpTi(μ 2 -Me)(μ 2 -NP i -Pr 3 )(μ 4 -C)(μ 2 -O 3 SCF 3 )(AlMe)(AlMe 2 ) 2 2 , respectively. Both 1 and 2 have been structurally characterized.
