Tris(pyrazolyl)methanides, [C(3,5-R(2)pz)(3)](-), contain an unassociated tetrahedral carbanionic centre in the bridgehead position. In addition to nitrogen donor centres for transition metal coordination, an accessible reactive site for further manipulations is available in the backbone of the ligand. The coordination variability of the ambidental C-/N ligand [C(3,5-Me(2)pz)(3)](-) was elucidated by investigating its coinage metal complexes. Two principle coordination modes were found for complexes of general formula [LMPR3] (with M = Cu-I, Ag-I, Au-I; L = [C(3,5-Me(2)pz)(3)](-) R = Ph, OMe). While for Cu(I) (2, 3) and Ag(I) (4) complexes the anionic ligand acts as a face-capping, six electron N-3-donor, gold(I) (5) is coordinated by the bridging carbanion yielding a two coordinate Au(I) complex comprising a covalent Au-C bond. The complexes featuring the kappa(3)-coordinated N3-donor ligand were investigated by P-31 CP (MAS) NMR in the solid state.
