Titanium Tetrachloride → HCID 178478492, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2.3 g (12.1 mmol) of titanium tetrachloride in dichlomethane, 3 g (12.1 mmol) of 1-dichloromethylsilyl-1-trimethylsilyl cyclopentadiene is added dropwise at 25° C. The reaction is stirred for two days at room temperature. The solvent is evaporated to dryness and the residue is extracted with hexane. When the hexane solution is concentrated, a yellow solid corresponding to (1-dichloromethylsilyl cyclopentadienyl) titanium trichloride is obtained (2 g, 6 mmol, yield: 50%). 1H-NMR (C6D6): 6.47 (m,2H), 5.49(m,2H), 0.70(s,3H).
