Description
Summary:The first examples of p-block coordination complexes of biquinoline, namely [(biq)BCl 2 ]Cl and [(biq)BCl 2 ]&z.rad;, were synthesized and structurally characterized. The acquired data allowed the estimation of the ligand charge state based on its metrical parameters. The subsequent use of this protocol, augmented with theoretical calculations, revealed ambiguities in the published data for transition metal complexes of biquinoline. Compounds [(biq)BCl 2 ]Cl and [(biq)BCl 2 ]&z.rad; are the first crystallographically characterized p-block complexes of biquinoline that allow the structural consequences of ligand reduction to be determined.
