| description | This Thesis describes the synthesis and characterisation of titanium imido compounds supported by pendant arm functionalised amidinate ligands. Reactivity studies of cyclopentadienyl amidinate-imido compounds with CO2 are presented. Chapter 1 introduces transition metal imido chemistry, with a particular emphasis on imido complexes of titanium. Chapter 2 describes recent developments in the chemistry of functionalised amidinate ligands. The synthesis and characterisation of new titanium imido compounds with pendant amine functionalised amidinate ligands is described. The preparation of an amidinate ligand with a pendant propyl arm is reported. Reactions of a selection of these complexes with small molecules are presented. Chapter 3 reviews recent developments in the chemistry of cyclopentadienyl amidinate-imido compounds. The preparation of cyclopentadienyl-supported titanium imido compounds bearing pendant arm amidinate ligands is described andthereactionsofthesecompoundswithCC>2arediscussed. Kineticanddensity functional theory studies of these reactions are presented. Chapter 4 describes the synthesis and characterisation of alkyl and aryloxide titanium amidinate-imido compounds. The preparation of cationic derivatives is also described and reactions of these cationic derivatives with small molecules are discussed. Chapter 5 presents full experimental procedures for all of the syntheses and reactivity studies outlined in Chapters 2 to 4. Chapter 6 contains characterising data for all of the new compounds reported. Appendices A - K contain tables of selected crystallographic data for all new crystallographically characterised complexes described in this Thesis. Appendices L - O contain kinetics data relating to work discussed in Chapter 3. |
