Bonding situation in Be[N(SiMe3)2]2 – an experimental and computational study

Abstract

The solid state structure of Be[N(SiMe3)2]2 (1) was determined by in situ crystallisation and the bonding situation investigated by quantum chemical calculations. The Be–N bond is predominantly ionic, but some evidence for the presence of a partial Be–N double bond character was found.
