Synthesis and reactivity of a conveniently prepared two-coordinate bis(amido) nickel(ii) complex

Abstract

A strictly two-coordinate nickel(II) bis(amido) complex has been prepared and its reactivity towards a variety of small molecules is described. Ni[N(SiMe3)(DIPP)]2 reacts with DMAP and acetonitrile to form T-shaped three-coordinate complexes, and preliminary results show that Ni[N(SiMe3)(DIPP)]2 is a catalyst for the hydrosilation of olefins with secondary silanes at ambient temperature.
