Ta(V) complexes of a bulky amine tris(phenolate) ligand: steric inhibition vs. chelate effect
The reactivity of a bulky amine tris(phenolate) ligand toward Ta(NMe 2) 5 was investigated. The reaction leading to the final product LigTa(NMe 2) 2 was slow and proceeded via an unusual dinuclear complex. The X-ray structures of both complexes were solved. Significantly, although the reaction of Ta...

Summary: | The reactivity of a bulky amine tris(phenolate) ligand toward Ta(NMe
2)
5 was investigated. The reaction leading to the final product LigTa(NMe
2)
2 was slow and proceeded via an unusual dinuclear complex. The X-ray structures of both complexes were solved. Significantly, although the reaction of Ta(OEt)
5 with that ligand precursor is slow as well, no dinuclear intermediate is observed during the reaction course. |
