Abstract
More usually thought of as a base, the sodium zincate [(TMEDA) ·Na(μ-TMP)(μ- tBu)Zn( tBu)] 1 can undergo single electron transfer with TEMPO to give [(TMEDA)·Na(μ-TMP)(μ- TEMPO -)Zn( tBu)] 2 and [(TMEDA)·Na(μ-TEMPO -) 2Zn( tBu)] 3; and with chalcone [PhCOCHCHPh] gives [{(TMEDA)·Na(μ-TMP)Zn( tBu)} 2(μ- OCPhCHCHPhCHPhCHCPh-μ-O)] which contains two chalcone units C-C coupled though their benzylic C atoms.
