Abstract

Abstract : Lightning Strike ! Selective methyl group abstractions from SiMe3 moieties of selected titanium complexes bearing the CH2 SiMe3 alkyl ligand by B(C6 F5 )3 are described to furnish novel cationic titanium complexes. The proposed silylium ion intermediates of these reactions are directly stabilized by the ancillary pentafulvene or Cp, N ligands under formation of C−Si and N−Si, respectively. More information can be found in the Full Paper by R. Beckhaus et al. on page 7119 ff.
