A Crystallizable dinuclear tuck-in-tuck-over tuck-over dialkyl Tren uranium complex and double dearylation of BPh(4)(-) to give the BPh(2)-functionalized metallocycle [U{N(CH(2)CH(2)NSiMe(3))(2)(CH(2)CH(2)NSiMe(2)CHBPh(2))}(THF)].
The unprecedented formation of a dinuclear tuck-in-tuck-over tuck-over dialkyl Tren-uranium(IV) complex and the first example of double dearylation of BPh(4)(-) in a molecular context to give a BPh(2)-functionalized uranium metallocycle are reported.
