The side-on end-on dinitrogen hydride complex [{Na(dme)}2{(O3)Nb}2(μ-η1:η2-N2)(μ-H)2] (3-Na, [O3]3− = [(3,5-tBu2-2-O-C6H2)3CH]3−) was observed to undergo facile elimination of H2 and cleavage of the N–N bond in the presence of 9-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane… Click to show full abstract
The side-on end-on dinitrogen hydride complex [{Na(dme)}2{(O3)Nb}2(μ-η1:η2-N2)(μ-H)2] (3-Na, [O3]3− = [(3,5-tBu2-2-O-C6H2)3CH]3−) was observed to undergo facile elimination of H2 and cleavage of the N–N bond in the presence of 9-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane (9-BBN), AlMe3, and ZnMe2. Treatment of 3-Na with 9-BBN and ZnMe2 afforded the nitride complex [{K(dme)2}2{(O3)Nb}2(μ-N)2] (2-Na). The reaction of 3-Na with AlMe3 afforded [{Na(dme)}2{(O3)AlMe}2(NbMe2)2(μ-N)2] (5). The nitride complex 2-Na was treated with 9-BBN and AlMe3 to form [{Na(dme)}2{(O3)Nb}(μ-NH)(μ-NBC8H14){Nb(O3C)}] (4) and 5, respectively. Complex 2-Na, 4, and 5 were structurally characterized.
