The reaction of ZnEt 2 and i ‐PrN=C=N i ‐Pr in toluene at elevated temperature yields the zinc amidinate complex [{EtC(N i ‐Pr) 2 }ZnEt] 2 1 . In contrast, the reaction of stronger Lewis acidic MeZnCl with t ‐BuN=C=N t ‐Bu resulted in the formation of the Lewis acid‐base adduct Me(Cl)Zn‐N( t ‐Bu)CN t ‐Bu 2 , which adopts a dimeric, Cl‐bridged structure in the solid state. 1 and 2 were characterized by elemental analyses, mass and multinuclear ( 1 H, 13 C{ 1 H}) NMR spectroscopy ( 1 H, 13 C), and single crystal X‐ray analysis.
