T1  - \(^{Me}\)CAAC=N\(^{-}\): A Cyclic (Alkyl)(Amino)Carbene Imino Ligand
JF  - Chemistry – A European Journal
N2  - A cyclic (alkyl)(amino)carbene (CAAC) has been shown to react with a covalent azide similar to the Staudinger reaction. The reaction of \(^{Me}\)CAAC with trimethylsilyl azide afforded the N‐silylated 2‐iminopyrrolidine (\(^{Me}\)CAAC=NSiMe\(_{3}\)), which was fully characterized. This compound undergoes hydrolysis to afford the 2‐iminopyrrolidine and trimethylsiloxane which co‐crystallize as a hydrogen‐bonded adduct. The N‐silylated 2‐iminopyrrolidine was used to transfer the novel pyrrolidine‐2‐iminato ligand onto both main‐group and transition‐metal centers. The reaction of the tetrabromodiborane bis(dimethyl sulfide) adduct with two equivalents of \(^{Me}\)CAAC=NSiMe\(_{3}\) afforded the disubstituted diborane. The reaction of \(^{Me}\)CAAC=NSiMe\(_{3}\) with TiCl\(_{4}\) and CpTiCl\(_{3}\) afforded \(^{Me}\)CAAC=NTiCl\(_{3}\) and \(^{Me}\)CAAC=NTiCl\(_{2}\)Cp, respectively.

T1  - Photoelectron Photoion Coincidence Spectroscopy of NCl\(_{3}\) and NCl\(_{2}\)
JF  - ChemPhysChem
N2  - We investigate NCl\(_{3}\) and the NCl\(_{2}\) radical by photoelectron-photoion coincidence spectroscopy using synchrotron radiation. The mass selected threshold photoelectron spectrum (ms-TPES) of NCl\(_{3}\) is broad and unstructured due to the large geometry change. An ionization energy of 9.7±0.1 eV is estimated from the spectrum and supported by computations. NCl2 is generated by photolysis at 213 nm from NCl\(_{3}\) and its ms-TPES shows an extended vibrational progression with a 90 meV spacing that is assigned to the symmetric N−Cl stretching mode in the cation. An adiabatic ionization energy of 9.94 ± 0.02 eV is determined.
