Abstract

The first examples of boryl substituted aluminylene and gallylene complexes, [(DAB)B(THF)Al{Fe(CO)₃(μ-CO)}]₂ and [(DAB)BGa{μ-Fe(CO)₄}]₂ (DAB = {(C₆H₃Prⁱ₂-2,6)NCH}₂) have been prepared by reduction of MX₂(THF){B(DAB)} (M = Al or Ga, X = Cl or Br) with K₂[Fe(CO)₄]. Spectroscopic and crystallographic analyses of the compounds show them to be structurally distinct dimers, the latter of which possesses a close Ga⋯Ga separation that computational analyses reveal has negligible bonding character.
