Abstract
Four- and five-coordinate magnesium and calcium complexes containing two diimine radical-anion ligands with compositions (dpp-BIAN)2Mg (1), (dpp-BIAN)2Ca (2), (dtb-BIAN)2Mg (3), and (dtb-BIAN)2Ca(THF) (4) (dpp-BIAN is 1,2-bis[(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imino]acenaphthene and dtb-BIAN is 1,2-bis[(2,5-di-tert-butylphenyl)imino]acenaphthene) were synthesized. At 120 K, the ESR spectra of complexes 1–4 in a toluene matrix show signals characteristic of biradical derivatives. The molecular structure of compound 2 was established by X-ray diffraction analysis. At 293 K, the magnetic moments of compounds 1, 2, 3, and 4 are 2.55, 2.57, 2.76, and 2.79 μB, respectively, which are indicative of the presence of two unpaired electrons localized on the ligands.
