Well-defined hydrocarbon soluble strontium fluoride and chloride complexes of composition [LSr(thf)(μ-F)2Sr(thf)2L] and [LSr(thf)(μ-Cl)2Sr(thf)2L]

Abstract

Reaction of LSrN(SiMe(3))(2)(thf) (L = CH(CMe-2,6-i-Pr(2)C(6)H(3)N)(2)) with Me(3)SnF and LAlCl(Me), respectively, gave the first example of a strontium mono fluoride complex [LSr(thf)(mu-F)(2)Sr(thf)(2)L] and the corresponding chloride derivative [LSr(thf)(mu-Cl)(2)Sr(thf)(2)L] .
