Abstract
The reaction of (bipy)Ni(cod) (1) (bipy = 2,2'-bipyridyl, cod = cycloocta-1 ,5-diene) with dioxygen and acetone at -20 degrees C affords (bipy)Ni(C9H16 O3) (2) (C9H16O32- = 2,4,6,6-tetramethyl-tetrahydropyran-2,4-diolate), whic h has been characterized by NMR, MS and an X-ray crystal structure determin ation. Acidolysis of compound 2 with two equivalents of acetyl acetone (Hac ac) yields (bipy)Ni(acac)(2) and C9H18O3 (3) (2,4,6,6-tetramethyl-tetrahydr opyran-2,4-diol), a cyclic trimer of acetone.
