    Crystal structure of a dimeric ß-diketiminate magnesium complex
    (International Union of Crystallography, 2016) MacNeil, Connor S.; Johnson, Kevin R. D.; Hayes, Paul G.; Boeré, René T.
    The solid-state structure of a dimeric ß-diketiminate magnesium(II) complex is discussed. The compound, di- -iodido-bis[({4-amino-1,5-bis[2,6-bis(propan-2- yl)phenyl]pent-3-en-2-ylidene}azanido- 2N,N0)magnesium(II)] toluene sesquisolvate, [Mg2(C29H41N2)2I2] 1.5C7H8, crystallizes as two independent molecules, each with 2/m crystallographic site symmetry, located atWyckoff sites 2c and 2d. These have symmetry-equivalent magnesium atoms bridged by -iodide ligands with very similar Mg—I distances. The two Mg atoms are located slightly below ( 0.5 A ° ) the least-squares plane defined by N–C—C–N atoms in the ligand scaffold, and are approximately tetrahedrally coordinated. One and one-half toluene solvent molecules are disordered with respect to mirror-site symmetry at Wyckoff sites 4i and 2a, respectively. In the former case, two toluene molecules interact in an off-center parallel stacking arrangement; the shortest C to C0 ( – ) distance of 3.72 (1) A ° was measured for this interaction.

    X-ray crystal structure of [L2Ag3]+[OTf]−·5C6D6: a monoanionic bis­­phosphinimine ligand supported tris­­ilver complex
    (2021) Drescher, Sam L.; Forfar, Christopher P.; Boeré, René T.; Hayes, Paul G.
    The compound bis­{μ3-2,5-bis­[N-(4-iso­propyl­phen­yl)-P,P-di­phenyl­phospho­r­im­i­do­yl]pyrrol-1-ido-κ3N:N′:N′′}tris­ilver(I) tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonate deuterated benzene penta­solvate, [Ag3(C46H44N3P2)2](CF3O3S)·5C6D6, (I), was synthesized from two equivalents of NaL [L = 2,5-(4-iPrC6H4N=PPh2)C4H2N] and three equivalents of AgOTf (OTf = OSO2CF3). High-quality crystals of (I) formed with five deuterated benzene solvent mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit. Notably, the bond lengths and angles between the three silver atoms are markedly different, unlike in most other reported tris­ilver complexes that tend to form three equivalent metal centers. Additionally, to the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of a tris­ilver complex with six nitro­gen donors from two bis­phosphinimine ligands.
