A Nitrido Salt Reagent of Titanium

Abstract
Deprotonation of the parent titanium imido (tBunacnac)Ti≡NH(Ntolyl2) (tBunacnac– = [ArNCtBu]2CH; Ar = 2,6-iPr2C6H3) with KCH2Ph forms a rare example of a molecular titanium nitride as a dimer, {[K][(tBunacnac)Ti≡N(Ntolyl2)]}2. From the parent imido or nitride salt, the corresponding aluminylimido–etherate adduct, (tBunacnac)Ti≡N[AlMe2(OEt2)](Ntolyl2), can be isolated and structurally characterized. The parent imido is also a source for the related borylimido, (tBunacnac)Ti═NBEt2(Ntolyl2).
