Abstract

Abstract The first examples of indium(III) derivatives based on sterically hindered 4,6-di-tert-butyl-N-(2,6-di-iso-propylphenyl)-o-iminobenzoquinone (imQ) were synthesized and characterized in details. The interaction of sodium o-iminobenzosemiquinolate with indium(III) iodide produces bis[4,6-di-tert-butyl-N-(2,6-di-iso-propylphenyl)-o-iminobenzosemiquinonato]-iodo-indium(III) (1). The same product 1 was obtained by the reactions of imQ with InI or imQ disodium derivative with indium(III) iodide. The interaction of imQ with InI3 results in the formation of indium(III) compound (2) containing neutral form of o-iminobenzoquinone ligand. Structures of complexes 1 and 2 were determined by X-ray diffraction analysis.
