Notes:
The monomeric phosphanylgallanes R2GaPR'R (R = tmp, Mes; R' = H, tBu; R' Mes, tBu), the diphosphanylgallane mesGa(PtBu2)2, and diphosphandiylbisgallane [tmp2GaP-(tBu)]2, have been synthesized from alkali metal phosphides and substituted gallium chlorides. Low-temperature NMR studies of the phosphanylgallanes reveal no barrier to rotation about the gallium-phosphorus bond. Analysis of the crystal structures of tmp2GaPtBu2 confirms the monomeric nature of these molecules. The gallium-phosphorus bond lengths are found to be 237.5, 233.5, 235.4 pm (averaged), and 242.3 pm, respectively, with all phosphorus atoms being pyramidally coordinated.
