A series of magnesium inner complexes has been prepared by reacting MgH2 (prepared by homogeneous catalysis) with dialkylallyl- and -3-butenylamines and -3-butenylethers in the presence of catalytic amounts of ZrCl4.The monomeric nature of bis(4-methoxybutyl)magnesium has been confirmed by X-ray diffraction.The analogous syntheses of bis(3-alkoxypropyl)magnesium compounds failed: cleavage of the allyl ether with elimination of propene occurred.This cleavage reaction is accelerated by catalytic amounts of NiCl2 or ZrCl4. - Keywords: Magnesium, Inner Complexes, Crystal Structure, X-Ray
