Abstract: | The synthesis of N‐heterocyclic carbene adducts of alkynyl lithium and magnesium is achieved, and different degrees of association are observed. Reaction of strontium amide nacnacSrN(SiMe3)2(thf) (nacnac=CH(CMe2,6‐iPr2C6H3N)2) with PhC≡CH in THF yields the dimeric alkynyl complex [nacnacSr(thf)(μ‐C≡CPh)]2 which shows an interesting coordination geometry around the metal center. The compound retains the THF molecules, unlike its lighter congener, even in hydrocarbon solvents. |
