Abstract
We have prepared and characterized two new bulky amido ligands unexpectedly prepared in an attempt to synthesize [(adamantyl)(2,6-iPr2C6H3)NH]. Rather than reacting at the primary -NH2 functionality, the adamantyl group attacked the 4-position of the 2,6-iPr2C6H3NH2 group to yield substituted ligands. These new ligands afford steric bulk, improved solubility in organic solvents, and an increased tendency to form crystalline compounds.
