The molecular structure of 1,10-phenanthroline-5,6-dione has been determine
d by X-ray diffraction analysis. The compound reacts with the tetrachloride
s of Group 4 metals affording adducts of general formula [MCl4(C12H6N2O2)]
(M=Ti, Zr or Hf) and [(MCl4)(2)(C12H6N2O2)] (M=Ti or Hf), N,N'- and N,N,O,O
'-co-ordinated respectively. The compound [HfCl4(C12H6N2O2)] is reactive to
wards TiCl4 affording the bimetallic compound [Cl4Hf(C12H6N2O2)TiCl4]. The
reaction of the dione with bis-cyclopentadienyl derivatives of titanium(II)
, zirconium(II), [MCp2(CO)(2)], and vanadium(II), VCp2, affords derivatives
O, O'-co-ordinated to the MCp2 moiety. By reaction of [TiCp2(C12H6N2O2)] w
ith [TiCp2(CO)(2)] the bimetallic derivative [(TiCp2)(2)(C12H6N2O2)] is obt
ained, which is suggested to contain two TiCp2 fragments, O,O'- and N, N'-c
o-ordinated to 1,10-phenanthroline-5,6-dione. The [MCp2(C12H6N2O2)] (M=Ti,
Zr or V) derivatives react with M'Cl-4 (M=Ti or Hf) to give [Cp2M(C12H6N2O2
)M'Cl-4] bimetallics.
