A series of constrained geometry O-functionalized cyclopentadienylchromium complexes (-) and a S-functionalized cyclopentadienylchromium complex () were first synthesized, characterized, and tested as catalyst precursors for the olefin polymerization. In the presence of MAO, the complexes exhibited high catalytic activity for the polymerization of ethylene. It is shown that ligand variations can have a substantial effect on catalyst activity and stability.

Recent studies, particularly from the laboratory of Buchalski and co-workers, have resulted in the syntheses of nickelacyclopentadienyl and nickelafluorenyl metallacycles that can function as pentahapto ligands in transition-metal complexes, similar to the ubiquitous cyclopentadienyl ligand. The structures and energetics of the neutral binuclear chromium carbonyls (CpNiC4H4)2Cr2(CO)n (n = 6, 5, 4, 3; Cp = η(5)-C5H5) containing the unsubstituted nickelacyclopentadienyl ligand have been investigated by density functional theory. The lowest energy (CpNiC4H4)2Cr2(CO)n (n = 6, 4) structures are similar to the corresponding experimentally characterized Cp2Cr2(CO)n structures with predicted Cr-Cr distances of ∼3.

The interactions of the benzothiazolate complex, CpCr(CO)(2)(SCSN(C(6)H(4))) (2), and the tetrazole thiolate complex, CpCr(CO)(3)(eta(1)-SCN(4)Ph) (3), with controlled amounts of Me(3)OBF(4) and (MeO)(2)SO(2), respectively, produced the corresponding mu(3)-oxo trinuclear thionate-bridged complexes, [Cp(3)Cr(3)(mu(2)-OH)(mu(3)-O)(mu(2)-eta(2)-SCSN(C(6)H(4)))(2)](5)BF(4) (45%) and [Cp(3)Cr(3)(mu(2)-OH)(mu(3)-O)(mu(2)-eta(2)-SCN(4)Ph)(2)](9)(MeOSO(3)) (53%), together with their respective free dimethylated thiolate ligands, [MeSCSNMe(C(6)H(4))](4)BF(4) and (Me(2)SCN(4)Ph)(8)MeOSO(3). The reaction of 3 with Me(3)OBF(4) resulted in the isolation of a binuclear complex, [Cp(2)Cr(2)(mu-OH)(mu-eta(2)-SCN(4)Ph)(2)](7)BF(4) (43%), and (8)BF(4) (27%). The reaction of the thiopyridine complex, CpCr(CO)(2)(SPy) (4), with I(2) also produced a similar mu(3)-oxo complex 10 (31%), together with CpCrI(2)(THF) (11) and the disulfide (SPy)(2).

The reactivity of the cyclopentadienylchromium tricarbonyl dimer [CpCr(CO)3]2 (Cp = C5H5, 1) toward several classes of organo-P-, -S- and -N-compounds will be described. The organic substrates include the following: (i) bis(diphenylthiophosphinyl)disulfane, R2P(S)SSP(S)R2; (ii) bis(thiophosphoryl)disulfane, (RO)2P(S)SSP(S)(OR)2; (iii) tetraalkylthiuram disulfides, R2NC(S)SSC(S)NR2; (iv) tetraalkyldiphosphine disulfides, R2P(S)P(S)R2; (v) dibenzothiazolyl disulfide, (C6H4NSC)2; and (vi) Lawesson's reagent, (CH3OC6H4)2P2S4. The primary products, namely, the complexes CpCr(CO)2(SPR2), CpCr(CO)2)(S2CNR2), CpCr(CO)2(SCSN(C6H4)), and CpCr(CO)2(SPC6H4OCH3), containing the thiophosphinito, dithiocarbamate, 2-mercaptobenzothiazole, and dithiophosphorane ligands, respectively, arise from facile cleavage of the S-S, P-P, and P-S bonds in the organic substrates.
