Patent ID: 8247617

Claim:
A metal containing complex represented by the structure: wherein M is selected from Ca, Sr, Ba, and mixtures thereof; R 1 and R 3 are independently selected from the group consisting of C 1 -C 10 linear or branched alkyl, C 1 -C 10 alkoxyalkyl, C 1 -C 10 fluoroalkyl, C 4 -C 12 cycloaliphatic, and C 4 -C 12 aryl; R 2 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, C 1 -C 10 linear or branched alkyl, C 1 -C 10 fluoroalkyl, C 1 -C 10 alkoxy, C 4 -C 12 cycloaliphatic, and C 6 -C 12 aryl; L 1 is an organic amide having a formula RCONR′R″ wherein R and R′ are independently linear or branched alkyl having from 1-10 carbon atoms wherein R and R′ can be connected to form a cyclic group having from 4 to 6 atoms, and R″ is selected from the group consisting of C 1 -C 4 alkyl and C 4 -C 8 cycloalkyl; L 2 is selected from the group consisting of H 2 O and ROH wherein R is a C 1 -C 10 linear or branched alkyl group or a cyclic group having from 4 to 6 atoms, and an organic amide having a formula RCONR′R″ wherein R and R′ are linear or branched alkyl having from 1-10 carbon atoms wherein R and R′ can be connected to form a cyclic group having from 4 to 6 atoms, and R″ is selected from the group consisting of a C 1 -C 4 alkyl and a C 3 -C 8 cycloalkyl; n is a number selected from between 1 and 4; m is selected from a number between 0 to 4, and p is selected from 1 and 2.
