Synthesis of zirconium aryloxide complexes containing pendent vinyl groups
- Univ. of California, Irvine, CA (United States). Dept. of Chemistry
The attachment of pendent olefin groups to oxygen-ligated zirconium complexes using olefin-substituted phenols and alcohols and readily accessible zirconium reagents is described. Syntheses of three crystallographically characterizable complexes isolable in 55--90% yield are reported. Eugenol, HOC{sub 6}H{sub 3}(OMe-2)(CH{sub 2}CH{double_bond}CH{sub 2}-4)(HOAr) reacts with [Zr(O{sup i}Pr){sub 4}(HO{sup i}Pr)]{sub 2} in toluene to form [({sup i}PrO){sub 2}(ArO)Zr({mu}-O{sup i}Pr)]{sub 2}, 1. CH{sub 2}{double_bond}CHCH{sub 2}OH reacts with [Zr(NMe{sub 2}){sub 4}]{sub 2} in the presence of 2,6-dimethylphenol to form the mixed ligand salt, {l_brace}Me{sub 2}NH{sub 2}{r_brace}[(2,6-Me{sub 2}C{sub 6}H{sub 3}O){sub 3}Zr]{sub 2}({mu}-OCH{sub 2}CH{double_bond}CH{sub 2}){sub 3}{r_brace}, 2. The potassium salt derived from eugenol, KOAr, reacts with Zr(OEt){sub 4} in THF to form [K{sub 2}Zr(OAr){sub 4}(OEt)]{sub 2}(O), 3.
