Graphical Abstract
Eine kurze Ga-N-Bindung mit Doppelbindungscharakter liegt beim ersten monomeren Galliumimid vor, das durch die Reaktion von [{HC(MeCDippN)2}M:] (Dipp=2,6-iPr2C6H3, M=Ga) mit N3-2,6-Trip2C6H3 (Trip=2,4,6-iPr3C6H2) hergestellt wurde (siehe Bild). Die analoge Aluminiumverbindung (M=Al) ist ebenfalls leicht herstellbar.

- 16 Bonds between three-coordinate gallium and nitrogen display considerable variation as a result of the inductive and steric effects of the gallium substituents. In general, more electron-withdrawing substituents at gallium lead to shorter Ga−N bonds. See: G. Linti, R. Frey, K. Polborn, Chem. Ber. 1994, 127, 1387; P. J. Brothers, P. P. Power, Adv. Organomet. Chem. 1996, 39, 1.
- 17 Full details of the structure of [Ga{N(SiMe3)2}3] have been reported by three different groups, the Ga−N bond length of 1.868(1) Å in ref. [17a], which is typical, is used here:

- 18 The bonding in Al−N compounds has been rationalized by distinguishing the contributions of normal and dative character to the Al−N bonds. For three-coordinate gallium in 2, a normal bond to nitrogen can be assigned the value of about 1.87 Å (observed in [Ga{N(SiMe3)2}3]).[12] Unfortunately the lengths of dative bonds to three-coordinate gallium (or aluminum) are unknown but it is reasonable to expect that they are between 0.1 and 0.2 Å longer than the value for a normal bond.
