Lead dichloride: a mild reagent for the oxidation of tervalent titanium compounds (η2-C5Me5)2TiR to monochloride derivatives (η5-C5Me5)2TiR(Cl)
Abstract
Lead dichloride reacts smoothly and stoichiometrically with (η5-C5Me5)2TiR (R = Cl, alkoxide, alkyl, hydride, etc.) complexes to form diamagnetic (η5-C5Me5)2TiR(Cl) derivatives and elemental lead.
