metal-organic compounds
In the title compound, [Ti(C13H14)F2], the coordination polyhedron around the Ti atom is a distorted tetrahedron defined by the centroids of the cyclopentadienyl rings and the two F atoms. The Ti–ring centroid (Cg) distances are 2.0558 (7) and 2.0567 (8) Å. The presence of a short carbon bridge linking the cyclopentadienyl rings constrains the Cg—Ti—Cg angle to a value of 121.50 (3)°.
metal-organic compounds
The title compound, [ZrBr2(C13H24)], contains a pseudo-tetrahedral ZrIV centre involving two η5-bonded cyclopentadienyl rings [Zr—Cg = 2.1843 (12) Å; Cg is the centroid of a cyclopentadienyl ring] and two Br atoms [Zr—Br = 2.5828 (5) and 2.5879 (6) Å]. The angle Cg1—Zr—Cg2 is constrained to a value of 116.80 (5)° due to the presence of a short interannular 2,2-propylidene bridge. The Zr and Br atoms lie on a crystallographic mirror plane, which bisects the organic ligand.
