Abstract:The two‐electron reduction of 2,3‐dimethylbuta‐1,3‐diene (DMB) with β‐diketiminate and guanidinate substituted dimagnesium(I) compounds has given complexes in which two bidentate amido‐magnesium fragments are bridged through the π‐system of the DMB dianion, viz. [(LMg)2(μ‐DMB)] (L=XylNacnac, [HC(MeCNXyl)2]−, Xyl=2,6‐xylyl; or Priso=[(DipN)2CNPri2]−, Dip=2,6‐diisopropylphenyl). Similar double reductions of [4]dendralene (4dend) have afforded the complexes, [(LMg)2(μ‐4dend)] (L=ArNacnac, Ar=Xyl or mesityl (Mes);… Show more
