Dichloro(diisopropylamino)borane → HCID 131734357, 화합물

Metallocene MET-1, shown below, was synthesized by first reacting lithiated indene with 5-bromo-1-pentene. Pure 3-(1-pentenyl) indene was obtained via vacuum distillation as a pale yellow oil. One mole of 3-(1-pentenyl) indene was added to diethyl ether and cooled to −74° C., and one mole of n-butyllithium was added. The reaction mixture was stirred at 21° C. for 3 hr, then cooled again to −74° C., followed by the addition of a diethyl ether solution of dichloro(diisopropylamino) boron, and then stirred for 12 hr while warming to 21° C. The resulting yellow slurry was centrifuged, and the bright yellow solution was poured off and solvent removed under reduced pressure. Monochloro(diisopropylamino)-3-(1-pentenyl)indenylboron was obtained as a yellow oil. 1 mol of indene was added to diethyl ether and cooled to −74° C., then n-butyllithium was added and the solution was stirred at 20° C. for 3 hr. The solution was cooled to −74° C. and a diethyl ether solution of monochloro(diisopropylamino)-3-(1-pentenyl)indenylboron was added, resulting in an orange slurry, which was stirred at 20° C. for 12 hr. The reaction solution was filtered into a Schlenk-tube and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure, yielding Ligand-1 shown below.
