Structural determinations of compounds <b>1</b>, <b>3</b>, and <b>4</b> showed all were dimeric with bridging amido groups. Rather than bond to gallium the tertiary amine groups in <b>1</b> and <b>4</b> were hydrogen-bonded to the amido N−H. In the structure of compound <b>3</b> the amine group occupied an axial position in the trigonal bipyramidal geometry of the five-coordinate gallium. The results were rationalized in terms of the steric and electronic properties of gallium ligands. 2000-12-08 00:00:00 amine groups TMS Gallane Complexes quinuclidine adducts lithium amides CMe CH compounds 1 gallium ligands NMe compound 3 bipyramidal geometry amido groups SiMe 3 amine group Structural determinations
