Abstract

Novel mixed amido-/imido-/guanidinato-complexes of tantalum are reported. The complexes were synthesised by insertion reactions of carbodiimides of the type C(NR)2(R =iso-propyl (i-Pr)) into the M-N bonds of tantalum mixed amido/imido complexes. Three representative complexes were synthesised and fully characterised by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, CHN-analysis and mass spectroscopy. The crystal structure of the complex [Ta(NMe2){(i-Pr-N)2C(NMe2)}2(N-t-Bu)](1)(Me = methyl, t-Bu =tert-butyl) is presented and discussed. The complexes are solids that can be quantitatively sublimed at moderate temperatures (120-130 degrees C) without any sign of decomposition. The thermal properties of the new compounds were studied (TGA) and preliminary MOCVD-experiments were performed. TaN films were deposited and characterised by XRD and XPS.
