The reactivity of a series of 4-coordinate [tris(pyrazolyl)hydroborato]magnesium alkyl derivatives, eta-3-HB(3-Bu(t)pz)3}MgR and eta-3-HB(3,5-Me2pz)3}MgR (3-Bu(t)pz = 3-C3N2Bu(t)H2, 3,5-Me2pz = 3,5-C3N2Me2H; R = CH3, CH2CH3, (CH2)3CH3, CH(CH3)2, C(CH3)3, CH = CH2, C6H5, CH2SiMe3), has been investigated. The complexes eta-3-HB(3,5-Me2pz)3}MgR undergo ligand redistribution reactions, analogous to the Schlenk equilibrium, to give the 6-coordinate sandwich complex eta-3-HB-(3,5-Me2pz)3}2Mg. In contrast, the 4-coordinate magnesium alkyl derivatives supported by the more sterically demanding tris(3-tert-butylpyrazolyl)hydroborato ligand, eta-3-HB(3-Bu(t)pz)3}MgR, are stable with respect to the formation of eta-3-HB(3-Bu(t)pz)3}2Mg. The alkyl complexes eta-3-HB(3-Bu(t)pz)3}MgR are useful precursors for a variety of other 4-coordinate complexes, including eta-3-HB(3-Bu(t)pz)3}MgX (X = C = CC6H5, C = CSiMe3, OEt, OPr(i), OBu(t), OPh, OCH2SiMe3, OSiMe3, OOBu(t), NHPh, SH, SCH3, Cl, Br, I, NCO, NCS). CO2 inserts into the Mg-C bond of eta-3-HB(3-Bu(t)pz)3}MgCH3 to give the eta-1-acetato complex eta-3-HB(3-Bu(t)pz)3}Mgeta-1-OC(O)CH3}. In contrast, the reactions with the ketones CH3C(O)CH3 and CH3C(O)Bu(t) do not result in insertion to give the alkoxide derivatives, but preferentially give the enolate complexes eta-3-HB(3-Bu(t)pz)3}Mgeta-1-OC(= CH2)CH3} and eta-3-HB(3-Bu(t)pz)3}Mgeta-1-OC(= CH2)Bu(t)}, accompanied by the elimination of methane. Insertion of O2 into the Mg-R bond of the complexes eta-3-HB(3-Bu(t)pz)3}MgR (R = CH3, CH2CH3, CH(CH3)2, C(CH3)3) results in formation of the alkylperoxo derivatives eta-3-HB(3-Bu(t)pz)3}MgOOR, which have been characterized by the use of O-17 NMR spectroscopy. In contrast, the reaction of the magnesium (trimethylsilyl)methyl complex eta-3-HB(3-Bu(t)pz)3}MgCH2SiMe3 with O2 gives the trimethylsiloxide derivative eta-3-HB(3-Bu(t)pz)3}MgOSiMe3 as result of facile cleavage of the Si-C bond upon autoxidation. The molecular structures of eta-3-HB(3,5-Me2pz)3}2Mg and eta-3-HB(3-Bu(t)pz)3}MgCl have been determined by X-ray diffraction. Eta-3-HB-(3,5-Me2pz)3]2Mg is triclinic, P1BAR (No. 2), a = 8.837 (3) angstrom, b = 10.223 (3) angstrom, c = 10.772 (2) angstrom, alpha = 63.92 (3)-degrees, beta = 85.24 (2)-degrees, gamma = 79.87 (2)-degrees, V = 860.4 (4) angstrom3, Z = 1. Eta-3-HB(3-Bu(t)pz)3}MgCl is orthorhombic, Pnma (No. 62), a = 16.048 (7) angstrom, b = 16.006 (3) angstrom, c = 9.840 (1) angstrom, V = 2527 (1) angstrom3, Z = 4.
