Synthesis and reactivity of heteroleptic zinc(i) complexes toward heteroallenes†
Abstract
Heteroleptic zinc(I) complexes L1,2Zn–ZnCp* (L1 = HC[C(CF3)NC6F5]21; L2 = HC[C(Me)NDipp]2; Dipp = 2,6-i-Pr2C6H32) are synthesized by reactions of Cp*2Zn2 with L1H and L2ZnH. 2 reacts with t-BuNCO to give unprecedented carbamate complex (4), while reactions with RN3 gave bis-hexazene, triazenide, and trimeric azide complexes (5–7).
