Chapter 2 In 1991 Lee et al. 83 published a paper where they used 93 Nb- and 1 H NMR spectroscopy to investigate the different substitution products of [NbCl5-x(OMe)x] that forms in the stepwise substitution of NbCl5 by MeOH in non co-ordinating solvents. Their results confirmed Schönherr’s et al. 84 results that only [NbCl2(OMe)3] is formed on adding an excess MeOH to NbCl5 in non-polar solvents. To validate their results they isolated and characterized [NbCl4(OMe)], [NbCl2(OMe)3] and [Nb(OMe)5] as reference samples. They did not isolate [NbCl3(OMe)2] as it readily disproportionates to form [NbCl2(OMe)3] and [NbCl4(OMe)]. This is due to the lower solubility of [NbCl4(OMe)] and the stability of [NbCl2(OMe)3]. The coordination of NbCl5 with MeOH in different aromatic solvents was followed by 93 Nb NMR and compared to the relative reference peaks. The results are presented in Table 2.6.

The β-diketones of choice was tBuCOCH2COtBu (Hdpm), PhCOCH2COPh (Hdbm) and acacH. They followed the kinetics of the displacement reaction of [NbCl2(OEt)2(dpm)] (complex 1) and [NbCl2(OEt)2(dbm)] (complex 2) with acacH to give [NbCl2(OEt)2(acac)] as seen in Figure 2.17. 83 G. R.
