A series of unsymmetrical β-diketimine coordinated magnesium(i) complexes have been successfully synthesized via reductions of related magnesium(ii) halide complexes with a sodium reducing reagent in toluene or n-hexane solution. All the unsymmetrical magnesium(i) complexes prepared have been crysta...
