These ligands are in the nascent stages of development and there are only a few metal [Tptm] and [TitmMe] complexes in the literature. An investigation of the reactivity of [L]CdN(SiMe3)2, [L]CdOSiMe3, and [L]CdOSiPh3 ([L] = [Tptm], [TitmMe], [TitmiPrBenz]) shows these complexes provide access to a variety of organometallic cadmium complexes, [L]CdX, (X = OAc, Cl, Br, O2CH, NCO). The characterization of cadmium acetate and formate complexes is significant due to their structural similarity with the metal bicarbonate intermediate formed by zinc and cadmium-substituted carbonic anhydrase. In addition, the synthesis and characterization of cadmium methyl complexes, [L]CdMe, is discussed. The application of heat to a mixture of [TitmiPrBenz]H and CdMe2 results in isomerization of the ligand to [S3-TitmiPrBenz]CdMe. This sulfur-rich [S3-TitmiPrBenz] ligand is not reported in the literature and is ripe for further investigation. The solid state structures of these compounds provide a comparison with biologically relevant [Tp] or [Tm] cadmium methyl complexes in the literature.
