New organotitanium fluorides [Hdmpy](+)[(C5Me4R)(2)Ti2F7](-) (R = Me 4, Et
5, dmpy = 2,6-dimethylpyridine, lutidine) have been prepared from (C5Me4R)T
iF3 and 2,6-dimethyIpyridine . (HF)(2). The compounds 4 and 5 react with La
(CF3SO3)(3) to give [La{(C5Me4R)(2)Ti2F7}(3)] (R = Me 6, Et 7) containing t
he [(C5Me4R)(2)Ti2F7](-) anion as a tetrafluorodentate ligand in the crysta
l structures of 4 and 7. The cation-anion pair is connected by a hydrogen b
ond in 4 and the all-fluorine environment of 12 fluorine atoms coordinated
to a lanthanum ion is found in 7. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights
