Abstract

Indium trichloride reacts with 1 equivalent of MeN (SiMe2NMeLi) 2 to give the dimer [ClIn (NMeSiMe2) 2NMe] 2 and with 4 equivalents of HNMeSiMe2NMeLi to give [Li {In (HNMeSiMe2NMe) 2 (MeNSiMe2NMe)}] 2. In the structure of [ClIn (NMeSiMe2) 2NMe] 2 a chloride and one amide group of a [MeN (SiMe2NMe) 2] 2–ligand are bonded to each In atom in terminal positions and the other amide group of the chelating ligand is shared ...
