Reaktionen einiger Methylmetallhalogenide des Aluminiums,Galliums und Indiums mit Hexamethyldisilazan

Reactions of some Methylmetal Halides of Aluminium, Gallium, and Indium with Hexamethyldisilazane MeAlCl₂ or MeGaBr₂, and bis(trimethylsilyl)amine form the dimeric, mixed-substituted ring molecules (Me(Hal)M^III–N(H)SiMe₃)₂ and one equivalent Me₃SiHal. The NMR (¹H, ¹³C, ²⁹Si) and vibrational spectra (IR, Raman) are measured and the X-ray structure analysis of the compound with M^III = Al and Hal = Cl, has been done as well. Me₂AlCl with an excess of HN(SiMe₃)₂ forms the expected amide (Me₂Al–N(H)SiMe₃)₂, the homologue Me₂GaCl with HMDS, however, gives at 50–55 °C only the cyclic (1 : 1) adduct (Me₂Ga–N(H)SiMe₃) · (Me₂GaCl). This complex crystallizes in the space group Cmc2₁, the unit cell consists of four binucleate molecules with folded Ga–N–Ga–Cl-ring skeletons.     

Das unterschiedliche Reaktionsverhalten von basefreiem Tris(trimethylsilyl)methyl‐Lithium gegenüber den Trihalogeniden der Erdmetalle und des Eisens

The Variable Reaction Behaviour of Base‐free Tris(trimethylsilyl)methyl Lithium with Trihalogenides of Earth‐Metals and Iron Base‐free tris(trimethylsilyl)methyl Lithium, Tsi–Li, reacts with the earth‐metal trihalogenides (MHal₃ with M = Al, Ga, In and Hal = Cl, Br, I) primarily to give the metallates [Tsi–MHal₃]Li. Simultaneous to this simple metathesis a methylation also takes place, mainly with heavier halogenides of Ga and In with excess Tsi–Li, forming the mono and dimethyl compounds Tsi–M(Me)Hal (M = Ga, In; Hal = I), Tsi–MMe₂ (M = Ga), and the bis(trisyl)derivative (Tsi)₂InMe, respectively and the main by‐product 1,3‐disilacyclobutane. Representatives of each type of compound have been isolated by fractionating crystallizations or sublimations and characterized by spectroscopic methods (¹H, ¹³C, ²⁹Si NMR, IR, Raman) and X‐ray elucidations. Reduction takes place, when FeCl₃ reacts with Tsi–Li (1 : 3 ratio) in toluene at 55–60 °C, yielding red‐violet Fe(Tsi)₂, 1,1,1‐tris(trimethylsilyl)‐2‐phenyl ethane and low amounts of Tsi–Cl. Fe(Tsi)₂ is monomeric, crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c and consists of a linear C–Fe–C skeleton with d(Fe–C) of 204,5(4) pm.     

Tris(trimethylsilyl)silylamin und seine lithiierten und silylierten Derivate — Kristallstruktur des dimeren Lithium-trimethylsilyl-[tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl]amids

Tris(trimethylsilyl)silylamine and the lithiated and silylated Derivatives — X-Ray Structure of the dimeric Lithium Trimethylsilyl-[tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl]amide The ammonolysis of the chlor, brom or trifluormethanesulfonyl tris(trimethylsilyl)silane yields the colorless tris(trimethylsilyl)silylamine, destillable at 51°C and 0.02 Torr. The subsequent lithiation, reaction with chlor trimethylsilane and repeated lithiation lead to the formation of lithium tris(trimethylsilyl)silylamide, trimethylsilyl-[tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl]amine and finally lithium trimethylsilyl-[tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl]amide, which crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n with a = 1 386.7(2); b = 2 040.2(3); c = 1 609.6(2) pm; β = 96.95(1)° and Z = 4 dimeric molecules. The cyclic Li₂N₂ moiety with Li? N bond distances displays a short transannular Li …? Li contact of 229 pm. The dimeric molecule shows nearly C₂-symmetry, so that one lithium atom forms agostic bonds to both the trimethylsilyl groups, the other one to the tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl substituents. However, the ⁷Li{¹H}-NMR spectrum displays a high field shifted singlet at —1.71 ppm. The lithiation of trimethylsilyl-[tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl]amine leads to a high field shift of the ²⁹Si{¹H} resonance of about 12 ppm for the Me₃SiN group, whereas the parameters of the tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl ligand remain nearly unaffected.     

Über die Synthese von Tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl-kalium, -rubidium und -caesium und die Molekülstrukturen zweier Toluolsolvate

About the Synthesis of Tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl Potassium, Rubidium and Cesium and the Molecular Structures of two Toluene Solvates . Solventfree tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl potassium ( 1 ), rubidium ( 2 ) and cesium ( 3 ) are obtained by the reaction of the zink group bis[tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl] derivatives with the appropriate alkali metal in n-pentane. Addition of benzene or toluene to the colourless powders yields deeply coloured solutions. From these solutions single crystals of tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl rubidium—toluene (2/1) ( 2 a ) and tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl cesium—toluene (2/3) ( 3 a ) suitable for X-ray structure analysis are iso- lated [ 2a : orthorhombic; P2₁2₁2₁; a = 1 382.1(3); b = 1 491.7(5); c = 2 106.3(6) pm; Z = 4 (dimers); 3a : orthorhombic; P2₁2₁2₁; a = 2 131.0(6); b = 2 833.1(2); c = 925.2(2) pm; Z = 4 (dimers)]. The central structure moieties are folded four-membered Rb₂Si₂ and Cs₂Si₂ rings, respectively. Small Si? Si? Si angles (100 to 104°) on the one hand and extreme highfield ²⁹Si-NMR shifts of the central silicon atoms on the other hand indicate a strong charge transfer from the alkali metal atoms to the tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl fragments, i.e. mainly ionic interactions between alkalimetal and silicon atoms.     

Tris(trimethylsilyl)methanselenenylhalogenide und -chalkogenide

Derivatization of Tris(trimethylsilyl)heptaphosphane

Through SiP bond cleavage, the reaction of P₇(SiMe₃)₃ with one equivalent of KO^tBu or LiO^tBu afforded different isomers of the heptaphosphanide anion [P₇(SiMe₃)₂]⁻. With LiO^tBu, concomitant inversion at an equatorial (silylated) phosphorus atom occurred and the C_s symmetric isomer characterized by a mirror plane formed. With KO^tBu, inversion did not occur and the resulting asymmetric anion with C₁ symmetry formed. With NaO^tBu, a mixture of both isomers was obtained. The symmetries and structures of the anions were elucidated with ³¹P{¹H} and ²⁹Si{¹H} NMR spectroscopy, and relative stabilities were calculated employing the B3LYP/6-31+G* method.The reaction of KP₇(SiMe₃)₂ or LiP₇(SiMe₃)₂ with 1,2-dichlorotetramethyldisilane led to (SiMe₃)₂P₇SiMe₂SiMe₂P₇(SiMe₃)₂, a molecule composed of two P₇-cages connected by a disilane bridge. It can also be obtained through silyl exchange using P₇(SiMe₃)₃ and ClMe₂SiSiMe₂Cl. The compound was characterized with ³¹P and ²⁹Si-NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. Treatment of P₇(SiMe₃)₃ with HypCl (Hyp = hypersilyl = Si(SiMe₃)₃) in DME led to the quantitative formation of Hyp₂P₇SiMe₃. Single crystal X-ray diffraction as well as ³¹P and ²⁹Si-NMR spectroscopy proves the presence of a heteroleptically substituted heptaphosphane cage.Quantum chemical HF and B3LYP/6-31G* calculations of equilibrium structures for the two possible isomers of P₇(SiMe₃)₃ (sym and asym) reveal that asym is destabilized by about 30-40 kJ mol⁻¹, which explains why its formation could not be observed. The phosphorus inversion barrier for the sym → asym transition is calculated as 60-70 kJ mol⁻¹.
