[Ti(CO)4(3-BH4)] and [Ti(CO)4(5-C4H4N)]: The First Zerovalent Metal Complexes Containing 3-Borohydride and Pyrrolyl Ligands
Year: 2000
Type: article
Abstract: Tridentate binding of BH4− to a zero-valent metal center was found for the first time in [Ti(CO)4(η3-BH4)]− (shown in the picture), which was obtained from the reaction of the carbonyl metalate anion [Ti(CO)6]2− with BH3⋅THF. Displacement of the unusually labile BH4− anion by a pyrrolyl anion provided the first metal(0) pyrrolyl complex [Ti(CO)4(η5-C4H4N)]−.
