Abstract

The synthesis and characterization of two heterobimetallic complexes [K([18]crown‐6){(η4‐C14H10)Fe(μ‐η4:η2‐P4)Ga(nacnac)}] (1) (C14H10 = anthracene) and [K(dme)2{(η4‐C14H10)Co(μ‐η4:η2‐P4)Ga(nacnac)}] (2) with strongly reduced P4 units is reported. Compounds 1 and 2 are prepared by reaction of the gallium(III) complex [(nacnac)Ga(η2‐P4)] (nacnac = CH[CMeN(2,6‐iPr2C6H3)]2) with bis(anthracene)ferrate(1–) and ‐cobaltate(1–) salts. The molecular structures of 1 and 2 were determined by X‐ray crystallography and feature a P4 chain which binds to the transition metal atom via all four P atoms and to the gallium atom via the terminal P atoms. Multinuclear NMR studies on 2 suggest that the molecular structure is preserved in solution.
