Syntheses of novel bis(alkylimino)acenaphthene (BIAN) and tetrakis(arylimino)pyracene (TIP) ligands and studies of their redox chemistry

The evolution of the present work began with the syntheses of novel bis(alkylimino)acenaphthene (BIAN) ligands. At the outset of this research, despite the presence of dozens of aryl-BIAN ligands in the literature, there were as of yet no reported BIAN ligands bearing alkyl substituents. Given the...
