C–H activation motivated by N,N′-diisopropylcarbodiimide within a lutetium complex stabilized by an amino–phosphine ligand

Abstract

A lutetium bis(alkyl) complex stabilized by a flexible amino–phosphine ligand LLu(CH2Si(CH3)3)2(THF) (L = (2,6-C6H3(CH3)2)NCH(C6H5)CH2P(C6H5)2) was prepared which upon insertion of N,N′-diisopropylcarbodiimide led to C–H activation via metalation of the ligand aryl methyl followed by reduction of the C[double bond, length as m-dash]N double bond.
