Dichloro and alkylchloro gallium derivatives of dichalcogenoimidodiphosphinate ligands: isolation of a spirogallium cation
Abstract
Dichloro and chloromethyl Ga(III) complexes of general formulae [XClGa-η2-{R2P(E)NP(E′)R′2-E,E′}]
(X = Cl, R, R′
= Ph, E, E′
= O (1), S (2), Se (3); R = Ph, R′
= OEt, E = O, E′
= S (4); R = Me, R′
= Ph, E, E′
= S (5) and X = Me, E, E′
= O (6), S (7), Se (8)) were synthesised by either metathesis reactions between GaCl3 and the
