Oximate-substituted zirconium alkoxides

Abstract

The reaction of acetoxime, ethyl methyl ketoxime or cyclohexanone oxime with zirconium iso-propoxide gave dimeric alkoxo oximate derivatives [Zr(OiPr)(oximate)3]2. The oximate ligands are side-on coordinated and the alkoxo groups bridge the two metal centres. NMR spectroscopy revealed dynamic behaviour of the compounds in solution. When exposing a reaction mixture of zirconium butoxide and cyclohexanone oxime to ambient moisture, the oxo-alkoxo derivative Zr4O(OBu)8(ON[double bond, length as m-dash]C6H10)6 was obtained.
