Abstract

A titanocene based metalloligand, Cp*₂Ti(C₂2-py)₂, was synthesized and coordinated to either Cu(I) or Pd(II). The metalloligand binds Cu(I) between its alkynes and Pd(II) between its pyridinyl rings, acting as a trans-bidentate ligand. In order to bind Pd(II), significant structural rearrangements were necessary, which required the flexibility of the C-Ti-C hinge on the titanocene metalloligand.
