Abstract

The title compound, [Ti(CF3O3S)2(C14H15NO2S)(C4H8O)], contains a unique ligand system in which the Ti ion is bound to the N and O atoms of a 2-p-toluene­sulfon­amide ligand, which is linked by an ethyl group to a coordinated cyclo­penta­diene moiety. The distorted octahedral geometry about the Ti ion is completed by two tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonate ligands and a tetra­hydro­furan mol­ecule. Comparison with related compounds shows that both the Ti—N and Ti—O bonds of the sulfon­amide, although longer than normal values, indicate significant bonding interactions.
