Magnesium(i) reduction of benzophenone and anthracene: first structural characterisation of a magnesium ketyl

Abstract

The reductions of benzophenone and anthracene with dimeric magnesium(I) complexes lead to thermally stable magnesium ketyl and magnesium anthracene complexes, respectively; both have been structurally characterised.
