The title compound, [η50–Ind(CH2)2NMe2](PPh3)NiCl or [NiCl(C13H16N)(C18H15P)], is a precatalyst for the polymerization of olefins. The present structure differs from a previously published polymorph of the same compound in the conformation of the amino tether (disordered over two positions with occupation factors 0.54/0.46) and in the cell parameters.

Comment top

A recent review presents the many advantages and possibilities offered by transition-metal complexes of Cp-type ligands bearing a coordinating tether (Müller et al., 2000). Our interest in the structural features and catalytic activities of the nickel indenyl complexes IndNi(PR3)X (Fontaine et al., 1998; Dubois et al., 2001) prompted us to explore the chemistry of analogous compounds bearing aminoalkyl side chains tethered to the indenyl ligand (Groux et al., 2000). The combination of the title compound, [η5:η0-Ind(CH2)2NMe2](PPh3)NiCl, (I), and activators such as AgBF4 and MAO (methylaluminoxane) catalyses the oligomerization of styrene and the polymerization of norbornene and ethylene (Groux & Zargarian, 2001; further publication in preparation).

The solid-state structure of (I) was determined from a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study carried out on crystals grown from a solution in Et2O/hexanes at room temperature, and this structure analysis has already been published (Groux et al., 2000). A new batch of crystals was obtained from a solution in CH2Cl2/hexanes at 253 K, and this paper reports a new solid-state structure of the same product (a different polymorph), differing only in the conformation of the disordered amino tether. No significant change in the main geometrical parameters is noted. Both crystal structures belong to space group P1; the cell parameters for the first form were: a = 9.215 (2), b = 10.228 (4), c = 16.250 (6) Å; α = 76.60 (3), β = 87.94 (2), γ = 65.43 (2)°; V = 1351.8 (8) Å3.

Experimental top

The synthesis of (I) has been published elsewhere (Groux et al., 2000). Single crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction study were obtained from a solution of (I) in CH2Cl2/hexanes at 253 K.

Refinement top

H atoms were constrained with a riding model (SHELXL97 defaults); Uiso(H) was set at 1.5 (methyl) or 1.2 (others) times Ueq of the parent atom. Occupancy factors for the disordered amino tether were initially refined with fixed displacement parameters, then were fixed while displacement parameters were refined; restraints were applied to interatomic distances within the disordered group.

Experimental. X-ray crystallographic data for I were collected from a single-crystal sample, which was mounted on a glass fiber. Data were collected using a Bruker Platform diffractometer, equipped with a Bruker SMART 2 K Charged-Coupled Device (CCD) Area Detector using the program SMART and normal focus sealed tube source graphite monochromated Cu—Kα radiation. The crystal-to-detector distance was 4.908 cm, and the data collection was carried out in 512 x 512 pixel mode, utilizing 4 x 4 pixel binning. The initial unit-cell parameters were determined by a least-squares fit of the angular setting of strong reflections, collected by a 9.0 degree scan in 30 frames over four different parts of the reciprocal space (120 frames total). One complete sphere of data was collected, to better than 0.8 Å resolution. Upon completion of the data collection, the first 101 frames were recollected in order to improve the decay correction analysis.

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. Weighted R-factors wR and all goodnesses of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The observed criterion of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factor_obs etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
