Summary
o-Thiatelluraphenylenezirconocene complexes were obtained in good yield by reaction of dilithiumo-benzenthiatelluride with zirconocene dichlorides. These compounds represent the first examples of heterodichalcogenaphenylene bent metallocences. They were characterized by spectroscopic methods and the effect on the n.m.r. results of stepwise substitution of one and two Te atoms for S is discussed.
X-ray crystal structure analysis was performed for one representative complex. The structure is very similar to that previously reported for a diselenaphenylene complex, but the disorder observed for chalcogen atoms prevents an accurate comparison of the geometrical parameters with other related compounds.
