The Tebbe reagent, [Cp2Ti(mu(2)-Cl)(mu(2)-CH2)AlMe2] (1), has finally been structurally characterized due to the fortuitous formation of cocrystals of 1 and [Cp2Ti(mu(2)-Cl)(2)AlMe2] (2). Single crystals of 1 and 2, despite being extremely reactive and forming an amorphous white coat, can be mounted and data collected to high resolution, thereby providing for the first time a solid-state representation of a titanium methylidene adduct with diphilic AlClMe2.
