The unexpected versatility of pyrazolate ligands R2pz is demonstrated by the synthesis of the homoleptic titanium complexes of the type [Ti(η2-R2pz)4] (1, R = Me, Ph) by Winter et al. Hitherto, pyrazolate ions were commonly bridging (µ2) or more rarely unidentate ligands for d-block transition metals.
