Synthesis and characterisation of zinc gallyl complexes: first structural elucidations of Zn-Ga bonds.
Reactions of the anionic gallium(i) heterocycle, [:Ga{[N(Ar)C(H)](2)}](-) (Ar = C(6)H(3)Pr(i)(2)-2,6), with two N,N-chelated zinc chloride complexes have yielded the compounds, [{Pr(i)(2)NC[N(Ar)](2)}ZnGa{[N(Ar)C(H)](2)}] and [(tmeda)Zn{Ga{[N(Ar)C(H)](2)}}(2)] which contain the first crystallographically characterised Zn-Ga bonds.
