Abstract
Metalation of bis(3-thiophen-2-ylpyrazol-1-yl)phenylmethane [2, which is accessible from the reaction of bis(3-thien-2-ylpyrazol-1-yl)methanone (1) with triphosgene] with [(thf)2Ca{N(SiMe3)2}2] in tetrahydrofuran and subsequent crystallization from a mixture of toluene and 1,2-dimethoxyethane yield [(dme)Ca{C(Pz(th))2Ph}{N(SiMe3)2}] (3). The α,α-bis(3-thiophen-2-ylpyrazol-1-yl)benzyl ligand exhibits a κ(2)N,κC-coordination mode with a Ca-C σ-bond length of 262.8(2) pm. The crystalline compound is stable if air and moisture is strictly excluded; however, in solution; this calcium complex slowly degrades.
