An unusual Ni2Si2P8 cluster formed by complexation and thermolysis

Abstract

[LSi(η2-P4)] (L = CH[C(Me)N(Dipp)][C(CH2)N(Dipp)], Dipp = 2,6-diisopropylphenyl) forms well-defined 1 : 1 and 2 : 1 complexes with N-heterocyclic carbene nickel fragments. The cluster compound [(IDipp)Ni2P8(SiL)2] (IDipp = 1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazolin-2-ylidene) is selectively formed by thermolysis of the complex [(IDipp)Ni(μ-η2:2-P4)SiL].
