The new C–C bond formation in the reaction of o-amidophenolate indium(iii) complex with alkyl iodides†
Abstract
The reaction of bis(4,6-di-tert-butyl-N-(2,6-di-iso-propylphenyl)-o-amidophenolato)indium(III) anion with alkyl iodides is reported. This process includes oxidative addition of two RI (R = Me, Et) molecules to the non-transition metal complex and results in an
