The structure of certain newly synthesized non-bridged and bridged cyclopentadienyl titanium complexes and their insecticidal activity.
Three bridged and non-bridged cyclopentadienyl titanium complexes, synthesized in our laboratory, were tested for their insecticidal activity against Trogoderma granarium (Everts), the Khapra beetle, and show moderate toxicity towards this product pest. The non-bridged derivatives have been observed to be slightly more active than the bridged ones.
