Ni[(EP(i)Pr2)2N]2 Complexes: Stereoisomers (E = Se) and Square-Planar Coordination (E = Te).
March 19th, 2008 | by admin |Ni[(EP(i)Pr2)2N]2 Complexes: Stereoisomers (E = Se) and Square-Planar Coordination (E = Te).
The reaction of ( (i)Pr 2PE) 2NM.TMEDA (M = Li, E = Se; M = Na, E = Te) with NiBr 2.DME in THF affords Ni[(SeP (i)Pr 2) 2N] 2 as either square-planar (green) or tetrahedral (red) stereoisomers, depending on the recrystallization solvent; the Te analogue is obtained as the square-planar complex Ni[(TeP (i)Pr 2) 2N] 2.
