description

Abstract Reaction of monomeric tungsten(VI) complex [W(eg)3] (1) (eg=1,2-ethanediolate dianion) with either one or 2 equiv. of 2,2′-methylenebis(6-alkylphenol) [alkyl=Me (H2L1), iPr (H2L2), tBu (H2L3)] provides heteroleptic complexes [W(eg)2(Ln)] (2) and [W(eg)(Ln)2] (3), respectively. Sterically hindered ligand precursor H2L3, which bear bulky tert-butyl groups in ortho-positions, can form only a complex corresponding to formula 2.
