The syntheses and structures of some main group complexes of the sterically hindered N,N′-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-4-toluamidinate ligand
Abstract
The stoichiometric reaction of the bulky benzamidine N,N′-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-4-toluamidine (HDippAm) with the metal alkyls BunLi (1∶1 in THF), Bu2Mg (2∶1 in THF) and Me3Al (1∶1 in Et2O) is presented. This provides the mononuclear dihapto benzamidinate compounds [Li(DippAm)(THF)2]
(1), [Mg(DippAm)2]
(2) and [Al(DippAm)Me2]
(3), respectively. Compound 3 was also obtained by salt elimination using
