Abstract

Reaction of the dilithium salt of the Schiff-base N,N'-o-phenylene-bis(3,5-di-tert-butyl-salicylidene-imine) ((t)Bu(4)salophenH(2)) with 1 equiv. of ZrCl4(THF)(2) in toluene at -78 degrees C affords the dichloro complex ZrCl2[C6H4-1,2-{N=CH-(3,5-(Bu2C6H2)-Bu-t-2-O)}(2)], isolated as a mixture of the C-2v-(3a) and C-2-(3b) symmetry isomers. Thermodynamic and kinetic parameters for the equilibrium between 3a and 3b have been determined and studied by H-1 NMR spectroscopy. Reactions of ZrCl2[C6H4-1,2-{N=CH-(3,5-(Bu2C6H2)-Bu-t-2-O)}(2)] with alkylating reagents gave an intractable, unidentified mixture of products from which the NMR spectra in C6D6 solution are unusable.
