Phosphine-metal complexes indium

Indium and gallium coordination compounds containing phosphine ligands have recently aroused interest for their widespread application as intermediates in the preparation of the Group 13 - Group 14 semiconductors [4], Since the early reports about compounds with transition metal-indium bonds [51, relatively little research has been reported in this field. However there is a growing interest in the coordination chemistry and structural features of heterometallic indium [6] and gallium complexes [7] which are also attractive as potential precursors of new materials with particular properties.

Gallium and Indium. Virtually nothing was known about the coordination chemistry of indium with tertiary phosphines until the pioneering work of Carty and Tuck. We allowed I2PR3 (R = Ph, Pr or Pr ) to react with indium metal powder, and obtained a series of interesting and novel complexes, Equations... 

OBu In] with metal hexacarbonyls gives the unusual cmnplexes [(CO)jMSn(p.-OBu ),InM(CO)3] (M=Mo,Cr) via initial coordination of the metal at the indium and tin sites . Two papers include both indium and thallium compounds. Thus, the preparation of [ CpM(CX>)3 3E] (MssMo,Cr,Es In,Tl) is described, extended Hiickel calculations indicating that the In-Mo bond is polar, and tire ic-bonding interaction is only weak . The synthesis and electrochemistry of the porphyrin (P) complexes [(P)ERe((X))s] is also described . Hnally one report describes the synthesis of phosphine substituted crown complexes containing a thallium-iridium bond. The nature of this interaction has been studied in some detail .
