Abstract

The reaction of either [InH3(NMe3)] or LiInH4 with an excess of the imidazol-2-ylidene carbene, :C[upper bond 1 start]N(Pri)C2Me2N[upper bond 1 end](Pri), affords the first example of an indium trihydride complex, [InH3{C[upper bond 1 start]N(Pri)C2Me2N[upper bond 1 end](Pri)}], the X-ray crystal structure of which is described.
