摘要
The synthesis and characterization of the cationic mixed metal Ga/Zn cluster [Zn2(GaCp)6]2+ (1) is presented. The reaction of [Zn2Cp2] with [Ga2Cp][BAr4F] leads to the formation of the novel complex being the first example of a [Zn2]2+ core exclusively ligated by metalloid group-13 organyl-ligands. Compound 1 exhibits two different coordination modes: In the solid state, two of the six GaCp∗ ligands occupy bridging positions, whereas VT 1H NMR indicates the coexistence of a second isomer in solution featuring six terminal GaCp∗ ligands. Quantum chemical calculations have been carried out to assign the gallium and zinc positions; the bonding situation in 1 is characterized and the importance of dispersion forces is discussed.
