Abstract
Lithium nitride acts as a reducing agent in co-ordinating solvents librating dinitrogen, reducing TiCl4 to LiTiCl4(THF)4(THF = tetrahydrofuran), (η5-C5H5)2TiCl2 to [(η5-C5H5)2TiCl]2 and (C5H5)6Ti6(C5H4)2N, and (η5-C5H5)TiCl3 to (η5-C5H5)TiCl2(THF), [(η5-C5H5)TiCl2]n, and(C5H5)6(c5H4)2Ti6N3; in the presence of CO, Li3N reacts with (η5-C5H5)2TiCl2(2:3 molar ratio) to form (η5-C5H5)2Ti(CO)2.Keywords
