Synthesis and Crystal Structure of the two Lithium Hypersilylcuprates LiCu2[Si(SiMe3)3]3 and [Li7(OtBu)6][Cu2{Si(SiMe3)3}3]

The two hypersilylcuprates LiCu₂Hyp₃ ( 2 ) and [Li₇(O^tBu)₆][Cu₂Hyp₃] ( 3 ) (Hyp = Si(SiMe₃)₃) were synthesized by reactions of unsolvated lithium hypersilanide, LiHyp with hypersilylcopper and CuO^tBu, respectively. Both contain the novel A‐frame trihypersilyldicuprate anion [Cu₂Hyp₃]^–. In the former case a molecular compound is produced containing intimate ion pairs. In the latter case the cuprate anion and the unique large [Li₇(O^tBu)₆]⁺ cation form a salt‐like compound, only sparingly soluble in unpolar solvents. According to NBO analyses the bonding within the trihypersilyldicuprate moiety is best described by interaction of a bridging lewis‐basic hypersilanide anion with two lewis‐acidic hypersilyl copper fragments.     

Das iso-Tetraphosphan P[P(SiMe3)Me]2[P(SiMe3)2]

H ? C Bond Cleavage in Ferrocene by Organylruthenium Complexes Cp*(Me₃P)₂RuCH₂CMe₃ ( 1 ) reacts at 85°C with ferrocene ( 2 ) by cleavage of one H? C bond in 2 to give CpFe[η⁵-C₅H₄Ru(PMe₃)₂Cp*] ( 3 ) (Cp = η⁵-C₅H₅; Cp* = η⁵-C₅Me₅) and neopentane. The ruthenium atom in 3 has a distorted tetrahedral geometry, the planar Cp ligands in the ferrocenyl fragment are eclipsed. Solutions of 3 in [D₆]benzene or [D₈]THF exhibit H? D exchange of the ferrocenyl protons. In the [D₈]THF molecule only the α-deuterium atoms are exchanged. Reaction pathways for this exchange are discussed.     

Unusual coordination modes of arylthiolates in Mo(eta(5)-SC(6)H(3)-2,6-(SiMe(3))(2))(eta(7)-SC(6)H(3)-2,6-(SiMe(3))(2))

Treatment of MoCl(3)(thf)(3) with LiSC(6)H(3)-2,6-(SiMe(3))(2) (LiSAr) resulted in formation of the pi-sandwiched bis-arylthiolato complex, Mo(eta(5)-SC(6)H(3)-2,6-(SiMe(3))(2))(eta(7)-SC(6)H(3)-2,6-(SiMe(3))(2)) (1), while the analogous reaction with LiSC(6)H(3)-2-Ph-6-SiMe(3) afforded the trithiolate complex Mo(SC(6)H(3)-2-Ph-6-SiMe(3))(3) (3). The acetonitrile adduct Mo(SAr)(2)(CH(3)CN)(3) (2) was isolated from the CH(3)CN solution of 1, in which one acetonitrile is coordinated to the metal center in an eta(2)-fashion. Structures of 1, 2, and 3 have been determined by X-ray diffraction.     

Das P(SiMe2)3P

P(SiMe₂)₃P Li₃P (produced from the elements) forms with Me₂SiCl₂ at 20°C in toluene the bicyclic compound P(SiMe₂)₃P 4 beside small amounts of ClMe₂Si? P(SiMe₂)₂P? SiMe₂Cl and traces of P₄(SiMe₂)₆ 7. 4 can be transformed into 7 by thermal treatment. With the formation of 4 the existence of a bicyclic silylphosphane is confirmed which has already been mentioned in connection with P(SiEt₂)₃P [1], but could not be proven until now.     

[Ge9{Si(SiMe3)3}2{Ge(SiMe3)3}]–: The Mixed Substituted Metalloid Germanium Cluster and the Intermetalloid Cluster [ZnGe18{Si(SiMe3)3}4{Ge(SiMe3)3}2]

The novel metalloid germanium cluster [Ge₉(Hyp)₂Hyp^Ge]^– ( 1 ) was synthesized, exhibiting two different bulky groups [Hyp = Si(SiMe₃)₃; Hyp^Ge = Ge(SiMe₃)₃]. Further reaction of 1 with ZnCl₂ gives the derivative [ZnGe₁₈(Hyp)₄(Hyp^Ge)₂] ( 2 ) in good yield, showing that the substitution of Si(SiMe₃)₃ by Ge(SiMe₃)₃ within a metalloid Ge₉R₃^– compound leads to a comparable reactivity. 1 and 2 are characterized by NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry ( 1 ) and single crystal structure analyses ( 2 ). 1 and 2 are the first metalloid germanium clusters bearing germyl groups.

Metal-Free Oxidative Trifluoromethylthiolation of Terminal Alkynes with CF(3)SiMe(3) and Elemental Sulfur

A metal-free oxidative trifluoromethyl-thiolation of terminal alkynes using readily available CF(3)SiMe(3) and elemental sulfur at room temperature has been developed. This reaction provides an efficient and convenient method for the preparation of alkynyl trifluoromethyl sulfides bearing a wide range of functional groups. Preliminary investigation revealed that elemental sulfur instead of air acted as the oxidant.     

Synthesis and structures of the [benzamidinato]3- complexes Li3(tmeda)(L1)]2 and [Li(thf)4][Li5(L2)(OEt2)2] [L1 = N(SiMe3)C(Ph)N(SiMe3) and L2 = N(SiMe3)C(C6H4-4)NPh

Reduction at ambient temperature of each of the lithium benzamidinates [Li(L(1))(tmeda)] or [{Li(L(2))(OEt(2))(2)}(2)] with four equivalents of lithium metal in diethyl ether or thf furnished the brown crystalline [Li(3)(L(1))(tmeda)] (1) or [Li(thf)(4)][Li(5)(L(2))(2)(OEt(2))(2)] (2), respectively. Their structures show that in each the [N(R(1))C(R(3))NR(2)](3-) moiety has the three negative charges largely localised on each of N, N' and R = Aryl); a consequence is that the "aromatic" 2,3- and 5,6-CC bonds of R(3) approximate to being double bonds. Multinuclear NMR spectra in C(6)D(6) and C(7)D(8) show that 1 and 2 exhibit dynamic behaviour. [The following abbreviations are used: L(1) = N(SiMe(3))C(Ph)N(SiMe(3)); L(2) = N(SiMe(3))C(C(6)H(4)Me-4)N(Ph); tmeda = (Me(2)NCH(2)-)(2); thf = tetrahydrofuran.] This reduction is further supported by a DFT analysis.     

Reactions between a sodium amide Na[N(SiMe3)R1] (R1 = SiMe3, SiMe2Ph or But) and a cyanoalkane RCN (R = Ad or Bu(t))

Reactions between sodium amides Na[N(SiMe3)R1] [R1 = SiMe3 (1), SiMe2Ph (2) or But (3)] and cyanoalkanes RCN (R = Ad or But) were investigated. In each case the nitrile adduct [Na{mu-N(SiMe3)2}(NCR)]2 [R = Ad (1a) or But (1b)], trans-[Na{mu-N(SiMe3)(SiMe2Ph)}(NCR)]2 [R = Ad (2a) or But (2b)], [(Na{mu-N(SiMe3)But})3(NCAd)3] (3a) or [(Na{mu-N(SiMe3)But})3(NCBut)n] [n = 3 (3b) or 2 (3c)] was isolated. The reaction of complexes 3a or 3b with benzene afforded the ketimido complex [Na{mu-N=C(Ad)(Ph)}]6.2C6H6 (4a) or [Na{mu-N=C(But)(Ph)}]6 (4b); the former was also prepared in more conventional fashion from NaPh and AdCN. The synthesis and structure of an analogue of complex 1a, [Li{mu-N(SiMe3)2}(NCAd)]2 (5a), is also presented. The compounds 1a, 1b, 2a, 2b, 3, 3b, 4a, 4b and 5a were characterised by X-ray diffraction.     

Synthese und Strukturen von [Cu8As3(AsSiMe3)2(dppb)4]+‐[Cu{As2(SiMe3)2}{As4(SiMe3)4}]‐, [Cu8As3(AsSiMe3)2(dppb)4]+‐[Cu{As(SiMe3)2}2]‐ und [Cu10(Sb3)2(SbSiMe3)2(dppm)6]

The reaction of CuCl, LiAs(SiMe₃)₂ and dppb (Bis(diphenylphosphino)butane) leads to the formation of ionic cluster complexes. Depending on the reaction conditions one can isolate [Cu₈As₃(AsSiMe₃)₂(dppb)₄]⁺[Cu{As₂(SiMe₃)₂}{As₄(SiMe₃)₄}]^‐ ( 1 ) and [Cu₈As₃(AsSiMe₃)₂(dppb)₄]⁺[Cu{As(SiMe₃)₂}₂]^‐ ( 2 ). The same reaction of CuCl, dppm (Bis(diphenylphosphino)methane) and LiSb(SiMe₃)₂ leads to the neutral cluster complex [Cu₁₀(Sb₃)₂(SbSiMe₃)₂(dppm)₆] ( 3 ). The structures of 1‐3 have been solved by X‐ray single crystal analyses.     

Preparation and characterization of arsine derivatives: X-ray crystal structures of As (SitBuMe2)3, As (SiMe3)2(SiPh3), Et3Ga · As(SiMe3)2(SiPh3), and As(SePh)3

As(Si¹BuMe₂)₃ (1) was prepared by the salt-elimination reaction between (Na/K)₃As and ¹BuMe₂SiCl. Mixing LiAs(SiMe₃)₂ with Ph₃SiCl (1:1) yielded As(SiMe₃)₂(SiPh₃) (2) in a good crystalline yield. Reaction of 2 (1:1) with Et₃Ga gave the expected Lewis acid-base adduct Et₃Ga · As(SiMe₃)₂(SiPh₃) (3). The 1:1 mole ratio reaction of In(SePh)₃ with As(SiMe₃)₃ resulted in a ligand redistribution around the indium and arsenic centers to afford As(SePh)₃ (4) in a low yield. The solid-state structures of 1–4 have been established by single-crystal X-ray analysis. Crystal data for 1, monoclinic space group P 2₁/c, with a = 11.112(2), b = 17.453(2), c = 14.199(2) Å, β = 114.89° for Z = 4; 2, orthorhombic space group P c2₁n, with a = 9.236(1), b = 16.612(2), c = 16.803(4) Å for Z = 4; 3, monoclinic space group P 2₁/c, with a = 16.799(1), b = 11.199(2), c = 19.413(3) Å, β = 112.22(1) for Z = 4; 4, trigonal space group R &3macr;, with a = 12.863(5), c = 18.96(1) Å for Z = 6. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Treatment of NdCl₃(THF)₂ and LuCl₃(THF)₃ with the lithium salts of the bulky amides [N(C₆H₃R₂-2,6)(SiMe₃)]^? (R = Me, iso-Pr) results in the formation of the lanthanide diamides [Li(THF)₂(μ-Cl)₂Nd{N(C₆H₃Me₂-2, 6)(SiMe₃)}₂(THF)] ( 11 ) and [ClLn{N(C₆H₃-iso-Pr₂-2,6)(SiMe₃)} ₂(THF)] [Ln = Nd ( 12 ), Lu ( 13 )], respectively. The ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR and mass spectra of the new compounds as well as the X-ray crystal structures of the neodymium derivatives 3 , 11 and 12 are discussed.
