Crystallographic report: Tricarbonyl(η5‐cyclopentadienyl)(dichloroindium) molybdenum

In the solid state, [{Cp(CO)₃Mo}InCl₂]∞ forms a one‐dimensional coordination polymer in which the indium atoms are coordinated by four chlorine atoms (In? Cl: 2.448(2)–3.004(2) Å) and a {Cp(CO)₃Mo} group (In? Mo: 2.750(1) Å) in a distorted trigonal bipyramidal environment. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Die 3-(N,N-Dimethylamino)prop-1-enyl-Gruppe als Chelatligand in Organoindium-Verbindungen

The 3-(N,N-Dimethylamino)prop-1-enyl Group as a Chelate Ligand in Indium Organyls InBr₃ reacts with Me₂NCH₂CH?CHMgCl (molar ratio 1 : 2) to form (Me₂NCH₂CH?CH)₂InBr ( 1 ) as the first indium alkenyl compound with amino-functionalized alkenyl groups. The X-ray structure determination shows the formation of a chelate complex. 1 crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Fddd with the unit cell parameters a = 14.904(2) Å, b = 17.140(1) Å and c = 21.035(2) Å. By reaction of Me₂InBr with Me₂NCH₂CH?CHMgCl (molar ratio 1 : 1) (Me₂NCH₂CH?CH)InMe₂ ( 2 ) is formed as a colorless, at room temperature liquid, monomeric compound. The n.m.r. and mass spectra are discussed.
