A series of aluminum and zinc complexes supported by pyridine-based N,N,N-chelate ligands have been synthesized and characterized. Treatment of 2-(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-6-((trimethylsilyl)methyl)pyridine (2) with LiBun/tmeda and then PhCN afforded a lithium complex [Li{2-(3,5-Me2C3HN2)-6-{N(SiMe3)C(Ph)═CH}C5H3N}] ([LiL]) (3). Reaction of 3 with ZnCl2 formed corresponding zinc chloride complex [Zn(Cl)L] (4), which was transformed to methyl- or ethylzinc complex [Zn(R)L] (R = Me, 5a; R = Et, 5b) by treatment with methyl- or ethyllithium. The ethylzinc complex (5b) was also generated by reaction of 4 with LiHBEt3. Reaction of 4 with AlR3 (R = Me, Et) gave alkyl aluminum chloride complexes [Al(Cl)(R)L] (R = Me, 6a; R = Et, 6b). Structurally similar N,N,N-chelate zinc complex [Zn(Et){2-(3,5-Me2C3HN2)-6-{N(Ph)P(Ph2)═CH}C5H3N}] (9) was obtained by reaction of 2-(3,5-Me2C3HN2)-6-{PhN═P(Ph)2CH2}C5H3N (8) with ZnEt2. The aluminum and zinc complexes bearing [{2-{N(SiMe3)═P(Ph)2}-6-{N(SiMe3)P(Ph)2═CH}C5H3N}]−...
