Bis[2,6-bis(trimethylsilylamino)pyridine-κN1]{[6-bis(trimethylsilylamino)pyridin-2-yl-κN1](trimethylsilyl)azanido-κN}lithium
Keyword(s):
The title complex, [Li(C11H22N3Si2)(C11H23N3Si2)2], contains a single lithium cation coordinated to three ligands. This is the first reported example of the ligand 2,6-bis(trimethylsilylamino)pyridine supporting a monometallic complex. One ligand is mono-anionic and forms a four-membered chelate ring with the lithium cationviathe pyridine and silylamido N atoms. The other two ligands are neutral and bindviathe pyridine nitrogen. The lithium cation is coordinated in a tetrahedral environment. No intra- or intermolecular hydrogen bonding is observed in the crystal structure, likely indicating that weak electrostatic interactions are the dominant feature of the crystal packing.
