This paper describes the characterization and structure of (t-Bu)2InN(2,6-i-Pr2C6H3)SiPh3, 1 and the structure of In3, 2.These compounds were synthesized by a salt elimination reaction between di-tert-butylindium chloride or indium chloride and the appropriate lithium amide.They were characterized by variable temperature 1H NMR spectroscopy (1) and X-ray crystallography (1 and 2).In the solid state 1 and 2 have planar coordination at indium and nitrogen.The In-N bond lenghts, 2.104 (3) Angstroem (1) and 2.049 (1) Angstroem (2) are relatively short in comparison to the sum of atomic radii of indium and nitrogen.This shortening may be accounted for in terms of an ionic contribution to the In-N bond rather than by the presence of significant In-N p-p ?-bonding.Crystal data with MoKα (λ = 0.71069 Angstroem) at 130 K : 1, C38H50InNSi, a = 10.437 (4) Angstroem, b = 10.788 (6) Angstroem, c = 18.269 (5) Angstroem, α = 98.61 (4) deg, β = 95.43 (3) deg, γ = 118.85 (3)deg, triclinic, space group P1*, Z = 2, R = 0.055; 2, C18H54InN3Si6, a = 16.214 (4) Angstroem, c = 8.343 (4) Angstroem, trigonal, space group, P*31c, Z = 2, R = 0.029. - - - indium amides / silylamines
