Abstract

A novel strategy for the synthesis of bis(ortho-amine)chelated monoanionic bisaminoaryl−metal complexes is presented. This method constitutes the exchange of a monoanionic, NCN-pincer ligand (NCN = [C 6 H 3 (CH 2 NMe 2 ) 2 -2,6] - ) between a stable arylgold(I) phosphine, [Au(η 1 -C-NCN)(PPh 3 )] (2), and a transition metal halide. This transmetalation results in the quantitative formation of [M(NCN)] organometallic compounds (M = Au III , Ni II , Pd II , Pt II ...
