Title: Homoleptic cerium tris(dialkylamido)imidophosphorane guanidinate complexes

Abstract

We report the synthesis of a new potassium tris(piperdino)imidophosphorane N,N'-dicyclohexylguanidinate, K[CyGNP(pip)3], and describe the synthesis and characterization of the tris-homoleptic compounds, [Ce(CyGNP(pip)3)3], 1-Ce, and [Ce(CyGNP(pip)3)3][BPh4], 2-Ce. The latter is an unusual cationic tetravalent cerium complex. Cyclic voltammetry studies of 1-Ce and 2-Ce revealed Epc potentials of -1.56 V and -1.81 V, and Epa potentials of -0.78 V and -0.66 V (200 mV s-1; THF, vs. Fc0/+), respectively. Compounds 1-Ce and 2-Ce were studied by L3-edge X-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy (XANES), and the fit of the spectrum of 2-Ce revealed a white-line multiplet with an nf value of 0.50(2).
