Abstract
The mixed bimetallic title compound, [InLi(CH3)2(C7H7O)2(C6H16N2)] or [(tmeda)Li-μ-(4-MeC6H4O)2InMe2] (tmeda is N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine), exhibits a four-membered LiO2In ring core via bridging 4-methylphenolate groups. The Li and In atoms are in distorted tetrahedral N2O2 and C2O2 bonding environments, respectively. The Li atom is further chelated by a tmeda group, yielding a spirocyclic structure.

S1. Comment
Ligands containing metal bridgeheads are useful for the generation of mixed metal species with novel physical properties and reactivity (Simmonds et al., 2012). In our efforts to generate organometallic In/Sn precusors for indium tin oxide (ITO) semiconductor species (Aksu et al., 2009; Veith et al., 1991), we have isolated the Li+ salt of the anionic ligand [(4-MeC6H4O)2InMe2]−. The structure of [(tmeda)Li-µ-(4-MeC6H4O)2InMe2] (tmeda = N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine) (I) (Fig. 1) exhibits a four-membered LiO2In ring core in which Li1 and In1 centre are bridged via the oxygen atoms of two 4-MeC6H4O ligands. The In—O bond distances [In1—O1 = 2.125 (1), In1—O2 = 2.141 (1) Å] are larger than the Li—O bond distances [Li1—O1 = 1.889 (4), Li1—O2 = 1.926 (3) Å] as a result of the larger covalent radius of In versus Li. However, the LiO2In ring is nearly planar [In1—O1—Li1—O2 = −4.5 (1)°]. In addition to the In—O bonds, In1 is also bonded to the carbon atoms of two methyl groups, resulting in a distorted tetrahedral C2O2 bonding environment for indium [O1—In1—O2 = 78.32 (5), C1—In1—C2 = 133.8 (1)°]. Li1 is also bonded to two nitrogen atoms of a chelating tmeda ligand, resulting in a distorted tetrahedral N2O2 bonding environment for lithium [O1—Li1—O2 = 89.9 (2), N1—In1—N2 = 86.8 (2)°]. The overall result is a bimetallic spirocyclic arrangement. The 4-MeC6H5 rings are displaced slightly toward the Me2In group [C3—O1—In1 = 121.0 (1), C10—O2—In1 = 125.0 (1), C3—O1—Li1 = 142.4 (2), C10—O2—Li1 = 137.9 (2)°] and are nearly orthogonal [88.63 (6)°]. The geometries at the bridging O atoms are distorted trigonal planar [ΣX—O1—X = 360.0, ΣX—O2—X = 357.9°]. The structure resembles those of dimethylindium phenolates [Me2InOR]2, which form bimetallic species in the solid state via intermolecular In—O coordinate bonding interactions (Briand et al., 2013; Briand et al., 2010; Beachley et al., 2003; Häußlein et al., 1999; Blake et al., 2011; Bradley et al., 1988; Trentler et al., 1997). These structures feature distorted tetrahedral geometries at In, distorted trigonal planar or slightly pyramidal geometries at O, and near planar In2O2 ring cores. For other bimetallic alkali-triel chalcogenolates, see: Niemeyer et al. (1997); Clegg et al. (1999); Muñoz et al. (2011); Uhl et al. (1994); Adonin et al. (2005); Soki et al. (2008); Muñoz et al. (2014); Normand et al. (2012).
S2. Synthesis and Crystallization
Synthesis of [(tmeda)Li-µ-(4-MeC6H4O)2InMe2]. [4-MeC6H4O]Li (0.143 g, 1.25 mmol) was added to a stirrred solution of InMe3 (0.200 g, 1.25 mmol) in diethyl ether (10 ml). After1 h, 4-MeC6H4OH (0.064 g, 0.60 mmol) in diethyl ether (3 ml) was added. After 2 h, tmeda (0.145 g, 1.25 mmol) was added. After 1 h, the reaction mixture was filtered, and the filtrate concentrated to 5 ml and allowed to sit at 277 K. After 1 d, the solution was filtered to yield colourless crystals of I (0.188 g, 0.490 mmol, 82%). Anal. Calc. for C22H36InLiN2O2: C, 54.78; H, 7.52; N, 5.81. Found: C, 54.56; H, 8.01; N, 5.67.

| Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
