Titanium(III) Member of the Family of Trigonal Building Blocks with Scorpionate and Cyanide Ligands
The titanium(III) cyanide compound [Et4N] [Tp*Ti(CN)(3)] ([Et4N] = tetraethylamonium; Tp* = 3,5-dimethyltrispyrazolylhydroborate) is reported, which exhibits a trigonally distorted geometry. Magnetic data and ab initio calculations verified that the molecule is an S = 1/2 paramagnet and that it exhibits significant temperature-independent paramagnetism.
