Nitrosyltechnetium complexes with (2-aminomethylphenyl)diphenylphosphine

The reaction of (NBu4)[Tc(NO)Cl4(MeOH)] with one equivalent of (2-aminomethylphenyl)diphenyl phosphine, H2L1, forms in MeOH a novel technetium(II) complex. Technetium(I) complexes were formed by using an excess of H2L1. All compounds were studied spectroscopically and by X-ray diffraction.
