Unlocking metal coordination of diborylamides through ring constraints

Abstract

A cyclic lithium diborylamide compound was synthesized and crystallographically characterized, revealing strong Li–N bonding in sharp contrast to previous linear diborylamides. Two iron(II) diborylamide complexes were also synthesized, including a 2-coordinate Fe bis(diborylamide) complex. The present cyclic diborylamide represents a new addition to the growing scope of amide ligands.
