    Abstract

    Reactions of Cp2TiR (R = C6H5, o-, m-, p-CH3C6H4, CH2C6H5, C6F5, C1) with R′CN (R′ = C6H5, o-CH3C6H4, CH3) have been studied. The products, (Cp2TiR · R′CN)2, identified by chemical and physical methods, form a new class of compounds, in which two Cp2TiR groups are connected by a bridging diimine ligand formed by oxidative coupling of two cyanide ligands via the cyanide carbon atoms. The metal is formally oxidized to titanium(IV).
