Abstract An improved synthesis of the ligand precursor \[C5H4(SiMe3)](CH2)(3)N(SiMe3)(2)\ is described. It has been used to prepare the ansa compounds \Ti[eta:sigma-C5H4(CH2)(3)N(SiMe3)]Cl-2\, \Ti[eta-C5H4(CH2)(3)(mu-N)]Cl)\(2), \Zr[eta:sigma C5H4(CH2)(3)N(SiMe3)]Cl-2\, \Zr[eta:sigma-C5H4(CH2)(3)N(SiMe3)](SMe2)Cl-2\ and \Mo[eta:sigma-C5H4(CH2)(3)N(SiMe3)](PMe3)Cl-3). Treatment of \Nb[eta:sigma-C5H4(CH2)(3)N]Cl-2\ with MeMgBr gives the dimer \MeNb[eta-C5H4(CH2)(3)(mu-N)(mu-sigma(N):eta(2)-(N,C)-NCH(CH2)(2)-eta -C5H4)]NbMe2\ whose crystal structure has been determined. The new compounds \Nb[eta:sigma-C5H4(CH2)(3)N](eta-C5H5)(sigma-C5H5)\, \Nb[eta:sigma-C5H4(CH2)(3)N](CH2C6H5)(2)\ and Nb[eta:sigma-C5H4(CH2)(3)N][CH2C(CH3)CH2](2)\ have also been prepared. The zirconium compounds together with methylaluminoxane act as catalysts for ethylene and propylene polymerisation. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science S.A.
