The complex [ZnBr2L1] (L1 = ferrocenylmethyl-bis[2-{pyrid-2-yl}ethyl]amine) contains bidentate L1 by crystallography and NMRspectroscopy and decomposes during recrystallization from CH2Cl2/pentane via both C-N bond cleavage and formation steps.Other [MBr2L1] (M = Co, Ni, Cu) compounds do not undergo thisreaction and contain L1 bound in the more usual tridentatecoordination mode.
