Phosphorus-bridged ansa-metallocene complexes of titanium, zirconium, and hafnium: The syntheses and structures of [PhP(C{sub 5}Me{sub 4}){sub 2}]MX{sub 2} and [Ph(E)P(C{sub 5}Me{sub 4}){sub 2}]MX{sub 2} (E = O, S, Se) derivatives

A series of phosphorus-bridged ansa-metallocene complexes of titanium, zirconium, and hafnium, [PhP(XC{sub 5}Me{sub 4}){sub 2}]MX{sub 2} and [Ph(E)P(C{sub 5}Me{sub 4}){sub 2}]MX{sub 2} (X = Cl, Me, CO, (Se{sub 3}){sub 0.5}; E = O, S, Se), has been synthesized. Structural characterization by X-ray diffraction indicates that, in comparison to their non-ansa counterparts (C{sub 5}Me{sub 5}){sub 2}MX{sub 2}, the cyclopentadienyl groups in phosphorus-bridged complexes are displaced from symmetric {eta}{sup 5}-coordination toward {eta}{sup 3}-coordination. Such {eta}{sup 3},{eta}{sup 3}-coordination creates more electrophilic metal centers than those in their permethylcyclopentadienyl counterparts, as judged by the {nu}(CO) stretching frequencies of the zirconium dicarbonyl complexes Cp{sup *}{sub 2}Zr(CO){sub 2} (1946 and 1853 cm{sup {minus}1}) and [PhP(C{sub 5}Me{sub 4}){sub 2}]Zr(CO){sub 2} (1959 and 1874 cm{sup {minus}1}).
