Abstract

A new class of tripodal L₂X ligands that feature three oxygen donors, namely the tris(2-oxo-1-tert-butylimidazolyl) and tris(2-oxo-1-methylbenzimidazolyl)hydroborato ligands, [To^{Bu^t}] and [To^MeBenz], has been synthesized via the reactions of NaBH₄ with the respective imidazolone. Structural and spectroscopic studies indicate that both [To^{Bu^t}] and [To^MeBenz] are significantly more sterically demanding but less electron donating than the related [O₃] donor ligand, [CpCo(P(O)(OEt)₂)₃].
