    Abstract:
    Reactions of the "digallene" Ar'GaGaAr'(1) (Ar' = C(6)H(3)-2,6-(C(6)H(3)-2,6-Pr(i)(2))(2)), which dissociates to green :GaAr' monomers in solution, with unsaturated N-N-bonded molecules are described. Treatment of solutions of :GaAr' with the bulky azide N(3)Ar(#) (Ar(#) = C(6)H(3)-2,6-(C(6)H(2)-2,6-Me(2)-4-Bu(t))(2)), afforded the red imide Ar'GaNAr(#) (2). Addition of the azobenzenes, ArylNNAryl (Aryl = C(6)H(4)-4-Me (p-tolyl), mesityl, and C(6)H(3)-2,6-Et(2)) yielded the 1,2-Ga(2)N(2) ring compound Ar'GaN(p-tolyl)N(p-tolyl)GaA' (3) or the products MesN=NC(6)H(2)-2,4-Me(2)-6-Ga(Me)Ar' (4) and 2,6-Et(2)C(6)H(3)N=NC(6)H(3)-2-Et-6-Ga(Et)Ar' (5). Reaction of GaAr' with N(2)CPh(2) yielded the 1,3-Ga(2)N(2) ring compound Ar'Ga(mu:eta(1)-N(2)CPh(2))(2)GaAr' (6), which is quasi-isomeric to 3. Calculations on simple model isomers showed that the Ga(I) amide GaNR(2) (R = Me) is much more stable than the isomeric Ga(III) imide RGaNR. This led to the synthesis of the first stable monomeric Ga(I) amide, GaN(SiMe(3))Ar' ' (8) (Ar' ' = C(6)H(3)-2,6-(C(6)H(2)-2,4,6-Me(3))(2) from the reaction of LiN(SiMe(3))Ar' ' (7) and "GaI". Compound 8 is also the first one-coordinate gallium species to be characterized in the solid state. The reaction of 8 with N(3)Ar' ' afforded the amido-imide derivative Ar' 'NGaN(SiMe(3))Ar' ' (9), a gallium nitrogen analogue of an allyl anion. All compounds were spectroscopically and structurally characterized. In addition, DFT calculations were performed on model compounds of the amide, imide, and cyclic 1,2- and 1,3-species to better understand their bonding. The pairs of compounds 2 and 8 as well as 3 and 6 are rare examples of quasi-isomeric heavier main group element compounds.
