Résumé
A highly modular assembly of meridionally coordinating tridentate bis(oxazoline)carbene ligands ('BoxCarb') is reported, in which the coupling of the oxazoline units with the central imidazolidene ring occurs by means of chemically orthogonal reaction steps. Reaction of the imidazolium salt (iPr)(2)-BoxCarbH(+)Br(-) 4 with [Rh(OtBu)(nbd)](2) at temperatures below -30 degrees C gave a thermally unstable rhodium(I) species, which was directly reacted at -78 degrees C with 1 molar equiv of bromine, giving the rhodium(III) compound [RhBr3((iPr)(2)-BoxCarb)] (5). An X-ray diffraction study established the meridional tricoordination of the ligand. Reacting 4 with 0.5 molar equiv of Ag2O gave the silver(I) complex 6, which was converted with [PdCl2(COD)] in CH2Cl2 to give the cationic square planar palladium(II) complex [PdCl((iPr)(2)-BoxCarb)]Cl (7).
