Abstract

The synthesis and characterization of some new terphenyl ligands, modified by meta alkyl substitution on the central ring are described. The new ligands were designed for potential applications in the stabilization of novel low valent main group species or transition metal heteronuclear multiply bonded compounds. Compounds 1-I-C6H1-2, 6-Ph2-3, 5-Pr2i (1), 1-I- C6H1-2, 6-Mes2-3, 5-Pr2i (3)(Mes= 2, 4, 6-trimethylphenyl), 1-I-C6H1-2, 6-Trip2-3, 5-Pr2i ( ...
