Syntheses and Structures of Magnesium and Zinc Boraamidinates: EPR and DFT Investigations of Li, Mg, Zn, B, and In Complexes of the [PhB(NtBu)2]•- An…
2006
The first magnesium and zinc boraamidinate (bam) complexes have been synthesized via metathetical reactions between dilithio bams and Grignard reagents or MCl2 (M = Mg, Zn). The following new classes of bam complexes have been structurally characterized: heterobimetallic spirocycles {(L)μ-Li[PhB(μ-NtBu)2]}2M (6a,b, M = Mg, L = Et2O, THF; 6c, M = Zn, L = Et2O); bis(organomagnesium) complexes {[PhB(μ3-NtBu)2](MgtBu)2(μ3-Cl)Li(OEt2)3} (8) and {[PhB(μ3-NtBu)2](MgR)2(THF)2} (9a, R = iPr; 9b, R = Ph); mononuclear complex {[PhB(μ-NDipp)2]Mg(OEt2)2} (10). Oxidation of 6a or 6c with iodine produces persistent pink (16a, M = Mg) or purple (16b, M = Zn) neutral radicals {Lx-μ-Li[PhB(μ-NtBu)2]2M}• (L …
Stable spirocyclic neutral radicals: aluminum and gallium boraamidinates
2005
Stable dark red (M = Al) or dark green (M = Ga) neutral radicals {[PhB(μ-NtBu)2]2M}˙ are obtained by the oxidation of their corresponding anions with iodine, and EPR spectra supported by DFT calculations show that the spin density is equally delocalized over all four nitrogen atoms in these spiroconjugated systems. peerReviewed
Synthesis, X-ray structures and redox behaviour of the group 14 bis-boraamidinates M[PhB(μ-N-t-Bu)2]2 (M = Ge, Sn) and Li2M[PhB(μ-N-t-Bu)2]2 (M = Sn,…

The solid-state structures of the complexes M[PhB(μ-N-t-Bu)2]2 (1a, M= Ge; 1b, M = Sn) were determined to be spirocyclic with two orthogonal boraamidinate (bam) ligands N,N′-chelated to the group 14 centre. Oxidation of 1b with SO2Cl2 afforded the thermally unstable, blue radical cation {Sn[PhB(μ-N-t-Bu)2]2}•+, identified by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy supported by density functional theory (DFT) calculations, whereas the germanium analogue 1a was inert towards SO2Cl2. The reaction between Li2[PhB(μ-N-t-Bu)2]2 and SnCl2 or PbI2 in 2:1 molar ratio in diethyl ether produced the novel heterotrimetallic complexes Li2Sn[PhB(μ-N-t-Bu)2]2 (2b) and (Et2O·Li)LiPb[PhB(μ-N-t-Bu)…
In Search of the [PhB(μ-NtBu)2]2As• Radical: Experimental and Computational Investigations of the Redox Chemistry of Group 15 Bis-boraamidinates
2008
DFT calculations for the group 15 radicals [PhB(μ-NtBu)2]2M• (M = P, As, Sb, Bi) predict a pnictogen-centered SOMO with smaller contributions to the unpaired spin density arising from the nitrogen and boron atoms. The reactions of Li2[PhB(μ-NR)2] (R = tBu, Dipp) with PCl3 afforded the unsolvated complex LiP[PhB(μ-NtBu)2]2 (1a) in low yield and ClP[PhB(μ-NDipp)2] (2), both of which were structurally characterized. Efforts to produce the arsenic-centered neutral radical, [PhB(μ-NtBu)2]2As•, via oxidation of LiAs[PhB(μ-NtBu)2]2 with one-half equivalent of SO2Cl2, yielded the Zwitterionic compound [PhB(μ-NtBu)2As(μ-NtBu)2B(Cl)Ph] (3) containing one four-coordinate boron center with a B−Cl bond.…
