Synthesis, structure and reactivity of FeII/III–NH3 complexes bearing a tripodal sulfonamido ligand†
Abstract
Complexes [MnMST(NH3)]n−3 (Mn = FeII, FeIII, GaIII) were prepared and each contains an intramolecular hydrogen bonding network involving the ammonia ligand. Deprotonation of the FeIII–NH3 complex afforded a putative [FeIIIMST(NH2)]− species whose reactivity has been explored.
