- Abstract
Dianionic 2,2′-diboratabiphenyl derivatives were prepared as a new class of binucleating ligands. Preliminary investigations into their coordination chemistry involved Rh complexes. Their solution and solid state structures were studied and confirm the preference for η6–η6 coordination of the novel ligands, rendering them isoelectronic analogues of the ubiquitous bicyclopentadienyl system. Comparative studies suggest stronger donor properties for the fulvalene ligand as compared with the 2,2′-diboratabiphenyl system.
