Abstract: | The thermally-stable cobalt(II) dialkyl compound CoR2 [R = C(SiMe3)2C5H4N-2] (1) has been prepared by reaction of [{LiR}2] with cobalt(II) chloride in ether. An X-ray structural study has revealed a centrosymmetric molecular skeleton (for two nearly identical independent molecules) in which a pair of sterically-hindered, functionalized pyridine ligands R− are trans-chelated to the central planar four-coordinate cobalt(II) atom, with mean CoCα and CoN distances of 2.094(6)Å and 1.919(4) Å respectively, and a CαCoN angle of 69.6(2)°. |
