A magnesium–bis­(di­aryldiketiminate) complex

The 1:1 of reaction of di­butyl­magnesium with the ligand 2‐[(2‐iso­propyl­phenyl)­amino]‐4‐[(2‐iso­propyl­phenyl)­imino]­pent‐2‐ene gives only the 1:2 metal–ligand compound bis­[N,N′‐bis(2‐iso­propyl­phenyl)­pentane‐2,4‐diiminato]­magnesium(II), [Mg(C₂₃H₂₉N₂)₂], as an isolated solid.

This material is a new candidate for non‐linear optical applications since the crystals are stable and easy to grow.
