The syntheses of molybdenum terminal phosphide and dinitrogen complexes supported by N-iso-propylanilide ligands are not as straightforward as those previously reported for the analogous N-tert-butylanilide complexes. To arrive at these synthetic targets, facile, high-yielding syntheses of bridging pnictide precursors have been developed, and their reduction chemistry has been explored. Cleavage of the reduced μ-E1 compounds was undertaken using CO and N2, providing access to the target compounds.
