Synthesis, properties, and reactivity of the stilbene complex of ytterbium (PhCH=CHPh)Yb(THF)2. Crystal structure of (2,4,6-But 3C6H2O)2Yb(THF)3
摘要:
The stilbene complex of ytterbium (PhCH=CHPh)Yb(THF)(2) (1) was prepared by the reaction of YbI2(THF)(2) with a twofold excess of (PhCH=CHPh)(-.) Li+. Based on the data of IR and ESR spectroscopy and on the results of magnetic measurements, compound 1 was characterized as a complex of divalent ytterbium with the stilbene dianion. The reactivity of complex 1 toward different types of reagents was studied. The structure of the product of the reaction of 1 with 2,4,6-tri(tert-butyl)phenol (2,4,6-(Bu3C6H2O)-C-t)(2)Yb(THF)(3) was established by X-ray diffraction analysis.
