Bis[2-(benzyl-imino-meth-yl)pyrrol-1-ido-κ(2)N,N']bis-(dimethyl-amido-κN)titanium(IV).

The mononuclear title complex, [Ti(C(2)H(6)N)(2)(C(12)H(11)N(2))(2)], was synthesized by the reaction of 1-phenyl-N-[(pyrrol-2-yl)methyl-idene]methanamine with Ti(NMe(2))(4). The Ti(IV) atom is coordinated in a distorted octa-hedral geometry by four N atoms from two derivatized methanamine ligands and two N atoms from two dimethyl-amide ions. The dihedral angles between the pyrrole and phenyl rings in the bidentate ligands are 62.36 (9) and 78.32 (8)°. In the crystal, a weak π-π stacking inter-action [centroid-centroid distance = 3.864 (2) Å] involving centrosymmetrically related mol-ecules is observed.
