Abstract
[2+2] Cycloadduct of the titanium silylidene Cp2Ti(thf)=Si[Si3(SiMeBut 2)4] and acetylene was readily prepared, isolated, and characterized by NMR spectroscopy and computational studies of the Me3Si-substituted model. Geometric features of the model, based on its optimized geometry, suggest that the best structural description for such [2+2] cycloadduct is a metallacycle rather than a π complex.
