Bulky Amidinate Complexes of Indium(III) - Synthesis and Structure of (Cync((T)Bu)Ncy)2Incl
Reaction of 2 equiv of lithium dicyclohexylacetamidinate with InCl3 affords the new species In[CyNC(Me)NCy]Cl-2 (Cy = cyclohexyl) (1). Compound 1 reacts with MeLi to yield In[CyNC(Me)NCy]2CH3 (2) and also reacts with a third equivalent of amidinate to yield In[CyNC(Me)NCy](3) (3). Two new bulky amidinate-ligands are prepared by the addition of ’BuLi to CyN=C=NCy and Me(3)SiN=C=CSiMe(3), respectively. Subsequent reactions with InCl3 lead to the high-yield syntheses of In[CyNC(CMe(3))NCy]Cl-2 (4) and [Me(3)SiN(CMe(3))NSiMe(3)]2InCl. (5). Spectroscopic and elemental analyses confirm the formulas of all of these new species. Compound 4 is further characterized by X-ray crystallography and shown to possess a distorted trigonal bipyramidal coordination geometry around the metal center with the chloride group in the equatorial position.
