Addition of hydrogen or ammonia to a low-valent group 13 metal species at 25 degrees C and 1 atmosphere.
Mild-mannered: The low-valent aryl gallium(I) species :GaAr' (Ar' = 2,6-(2,6-iPr(2)C(6)H(3))(2)C(6)H(3)) undergoes addition to H(2) or NH(3) at room temperature and one atmosphere of pressure to afford 1 or 2 (see scheme), which were characterized by X-ray crystallography and NMR and IR spectroscopy.
