Influence of ligand backbone flexibility in group 4 metal complexes of tetradentate mixed tertiary amine/alkoxide ligands

Simple epoxide ring opening chemistry using the cyclic secondary amine 1,4-diazacycloheptane or the related linear species N,N′- dimethylethylenediamine, and racemic (±)-3,3-dimethyl-1,2-epoxybutane gives access to the pendant alcohol functionalised ditertiary amine pro-ligands [HOCH(tBu)CH2N(R)CH2]...
