The reactions of Me 2 Zn with carbodiimides RN=C=NR (R = Et, Ph) yielded the polynuclear zinc amidinate complexes {[MeZn] 4 [C(RNCNR) 4 ]} [R = Et ( 1 ), Ph ( 3 )] and {[MeZn] 2 [C(EtNCNEt) 2 (C 2 (NEt) 3 )]} ( 2 ). In addition, the reaction of {[ClZn] 4 [C( i PrNCN i Pr) 4 ]} with MCl 3 gave the corresponding Lewis acid–base adducts {[MCl 3 ] 2 [ClZn] 4 [C( i PrNCN i Pr) 4 ]} [M = Al ( 4 ), Ga ( 5 )]. Compounds 1 – 5 were characterized by multinuclear NMR ( 1 H, 13 C) and IR spectroscopy, elemental analyses and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction.
