Abstract
Abstract Bis(η 5 -cyclopentadienyl)titanium(1-norbornyl) chloride and bis(η 5 -cyclopentadienyl) titanium-bis(1-norbornyl) (norbornyl (nor) = bicyclo[2.2.1]heptyl) were synthesized from bis(η 5 -cyclopentadienyl)titanium dichloride and 1-norbornyl-lithium.Bis(η 5 -cyclopentadienyl)titanium-bis(1-norbornyl) reacts at ca. -90°C with 1-norbornyllithium to form a lithium-organotitanate(IV) complex of the type Li[(C 5 H 5 Ti(1-nor) 3 ]. The complex decomposes between -10 and 0°C to η 5 -cyclopentadienyltitanium-tris(1-norbornyl) and cyclopentadienyllithium. A detailed characterization was carried out by mass, IR and 13 C NMR spectroscopy and by investigation of the thermal decomposition.
