Abstract
The oxime-substituted NCN-pincer molecules HONCH-1-C6H3(CH2NMe2)2-3,5 (2a) and HONCH-4-C6H2(CH2NMe2)2-2,6-Br-1 (2b) were accessible by treatment of the benzaldehydes H(O)C-4-C6H3(CH2NMe2)2-3,5 (1a) and H(O)C-4-C6H2(CH2NMe2)2-2,6-Br-1 (1b) with an excess of hydroxylamine. In the solid state both compounds are forming polymers with intermolecular O–HN connectivities between the Me2NCH2 substituents and the oxime entity of further molecules
