Popis: Reactions of Cp(2)TiCl(2) (Cp = eta(5)-cyclopentadienide) with 2 or 1 equiv of hybrid P-S ligands (L), (CH(3))(2)P(CH(2))(n)()S(-) (n = 2, dmpet; n = 3, dmppt), produced new dicyclopentadienyltitanium(IV) complexes with L, Cp(2)Ti(L-kappaS)(2) (1, L = dmpet; 2, L = dmppt) and [Cp(2)Ti(L-kappa(2)S,P)]BPh(4) (3, L = dmpet; 4, L = dmppt). The Ti(III) complexes, Cp(2)Ti(L-kappa(2)S,P) (5, L = dmpet; 6, L = dmppt), were prepared by the reaction of Cp(2)Ti(eta(3)-C(3)H(5)) with 1 equiv of L. The structures of complexes 1-6 were confirmed by X-ray diffraction analyses. It was found that complexes 3 and 5 were isostructural around Ti(IV) and Ti(III) centers: the Ti(IV)-S bond length in 3 (2.3498(9) A) is shorter by 0.14 A than Ti(III)-S in 5 (2.4877(7) A), while Ti(IV)-P (2.534(1) A) was merely 0.05 A shorter than Ti(III)-P (2.5844(7) A). The redox potential between 3 and 5 in acetonitrile was -1.14 V vs the ferricinium/ferrocene couple. A heterobimetallic complex that has the frame of complex 1, [Cp(2)Ti(dmpet)(2)Cu]PF(6) (7), was also isolated and structurally characterized: the Ti-Cu distance (2.95(1) A) was shorter than that in [Cp(2)Ti(SC(2)H(4)PPh(2))(2)Cu]BF(4), previously reported by White and Stephan. Structural characterization was also carried out for CpTi(dmpet-kappaS)(2)(dmpet-kappa(2)S,P) (8) and CpTiCl(2)(dmppt-kappa(2)S,P) (9), which were obtained by the reactions of Cp(or Cp)TiCl(3) (Cp = eta(5)-C(5)Me(5)(-)) with n equiv (n = 1-3) of L. The mutual site-exchange reaction between phosphorus atoms on a coordinated dmpet in the kappa(2)S,P mode and on two other coordinated dmpet's in the kappaS mode within complex 8 was analyzed by the variable-temperature (31)P[(1)H] dynamic NMR method. The kinetic parameters for this process, k(ex)(298) = 1.9 x 10(5) s(-)(1), DeltaH = 48 kJ mol(-)(1), and DeltaS = 17 J mol(-)(1) K(-)(1), as well as the rather long Ti(IV)-P distance (2.652(1) A), indicate the fluxional nature of the coordination geometry in complex 8.
