Azido- and amido-substituted gallium hydrides supported by N-heterocyclic carbenes†
Abstract
Despite recent advances in main group N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) coordination chemistry, gallium hydrides remain, in large part, an unexplored area of research. In this paper we outline efficient routes to azide- and amido-functionalized gallium hydrides such as NHC·GaH2N3 and NHC·GaH2N(SiMe3)2 and explore these species as potential precursors to HGaNH complexes and bulk gallium nitride (GaN).
