N2  - The complexes C6F5InCl2,L [L = N,N,N?,N?-tetramethylethylenediamine (tmed), 2,2?-bipyridyl (bpy), 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), 2,2?:6?,2?- terpyridyl (tpy) or (Ph2PCH2)2] have been prepared by reaction of C6F5InCl2,diox (diox = 1,4-dioxan) with the appropriate ligands, and are considered to contain five-coordinate indium on the basis of indium- chlorine stretching frequencies. Monomeric structures are likely for all complexes except C6F5InCl2,tmed, which is dimeric with bridging tmed. Atmospheric moisture converts C6F5InCl2,L (L = phen or tpy) into monohydrates, in which water is not coordinated. Reaction of C6F5InCl2,diox with pyridine, triphenylphosphine and dimethyl sulphoxide causes quantitative rearrangement into the corresponding indium trichloride and tris-pentafluorophenylindium complexes. The derivatives (C6F5)nIn(ox)3-n(n = 1 or 2; ox = quinolin-8-olate) have been prepared by cleavage of (C6F5)3In,diox with quinolin-8-ol, and C6F5In(ox)2 has also been obtained from C6F5InCl2,diox and thallous quinolin-8-olate.
