Abstract

The new lithium 1,3-diazaallyl [Li{N(R)C(Ph)NC(Ph)[double bond, length half m-dash]CR2}] 1 [abbreviated as Li(L–L′)] has been prepared from [Li(CR3)(thf[hair space])2] and 2 equivalents of benzonitrile (R = SiMe3, thf = C4H8O). Compound 1 was shown to be a suitable precursor for the synthesis of the metal complexes [SnCl(L–L′)] 2, [[upper bond 1 start]Sn(L–L[upper bond 1 end]′)2] 3 and [Hg(L–L′)2] 4 from the appropriate metal(II) chloride, while the reduction of 2 with potassium–graphite led in high yield to [{[upper bond 1 start]K(µ-L–L[upper bond 1 end]′)}2] 5. Each of the compounds was fully characterised by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and for 3–5 by X-ray diffraction.
