Synthesis and Structure of Lithium Tris(trimethylsilyl)silanide · 1,5 DME Lithium tris(trimethylsilyl)silanide · 1,5 DME 2a synthesized from tetrakis(trimethylsilyl)silane 1 [6] and methyllithium in 1,2-dimethoxyethane , crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c with following dimensions of the unit cell determined at a temperature of measurement of ?120 ± 2°C: a = 1 072.9(3); b = 1 408.3(4); c = 1 775.1(5) pm; β = 107.74(2)°; 4 formula units (Z = 2). An X-ray structure determination (R_w = 0.040) shows the compound to be built up from two [lithium tris(trimethylsilyl)silanide] moieties which are connected via a bridging DME molecule. Two remaining sites of each four-coordinate lithium atom are occupied by a chelating DME ligand. The Li? Si distance of 263 pm is considerably longer than the sum of covalent radii; further characteristic mean bond lengths and angles are: Si? Si 234, Li? O 200, O? C 144, O?O (biß) 264 pm; Si? Si? Si 104°, Li? Si? Si 107° to 126°; O? Li? O (inside the chelate ring) 83°. Unfortunately, di(tert-butyl)bis(trimethylsilyl)silane 17 prepared from di(tert-butyl)dichlorsilane 15 , chlorotrimethylsilane and lithium, does not react with alkyllithium compounds to give the analogous silanide.

Only in case of the mesitylphosphine 1 c the intermediate compounds 2 and 3 could be detected by n.m.r. spectroscopic methods; thermally unstable [bis(trimethylsilylsulfano)methylidene]methylphosphine 4 d dimerizes rapidly [1].

Acyl- und Alkylidenphosphane. XXVI. 2, 4-Bis(phenylimino)-1,3-diphosphetane aus Thiocarbamoyl- und Carbamoyltrimethylsilylphosphanen

Acyl-and Alkylidenephosphines. XXVI. 2, 4-Bis (phenylimino)-1, 3-diphosphetanes from Thiocarbamoyl- and Carbamoyltrimethylsilylphosphines . Bis(trimethylsilyl)phosphines R? P[? Si(CH₃)₃]₂ 1 (R = H₃C a, H₅C₆ b, (H₃C)₃C e, H₁₁C₉ d) and phenyl isothiocyanate give insertion compounds which were identified as [CN-phenyl, N-trimethylsilyl)thiocarbamoyl]trimethylsilylphosphines 3 ? 2 in solution as well as in the solid state [2]. In the presence of small amounts of solid sodium hydroxide the phenyl derivative 3 ? 2b eliminates bis(trimethylsilyl) sulfane, whereas the tert-butyl 3 ? 2c and the mesityl compound 3 ? 2d show the same reaction even without a catalyst. The unstable [(phenylimino)methylidene]phosphines 6 formed first, dimerize rapidly to give 2, 4-bis(phenylimino)-1,3-diphosphetanes 7 which in solution exist as mixtures of the E and Z isomers. Via a NaOH-catalyzed elimination of hexamethyldisiloxane these cyclic phosphines 7 can also be obtained from the adducts of phenyl isocyanate and bis(trimethylsilyl)phosphines 1. Taking the thermally sufficiently stable tert-butyl derivative 7 c as an example, the temperature dependence of n.m.r. spectra is discussed in detail.

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.     

Acyl- und Alkylidenphosphane. XXVIII. Synthese und Struktur von 1,3-Dibenzyl- und 1,3-Diethyl-2,4-bis(phenylimino)-1,3-diphosphetan

Synthesis and Structure of 1,3-Dibenzyl- and 1,3-Diethyl-2,4-bis(phenylimino)-1,3-diphosphetane Catalyzed by small amounts of solid sodium hydroxide, the adducts 1a and 1b formed from benzyl- or ethylbis(trimethylsilyl)phosphine and phenylisocyanate, react at +20°C slowly to give hexamethldisiloxane and oligomeric [(phenylimino)methylidene]phosphines. In different solvents the benzyl compound was found to exist only as a mixture of [N,N′-(E)/(Z)]-isomeric 2,4-bis-(phenylimino)-1,3-diphosphetanes 2a with their alkyl groups at the phosphorus atoms in trans position, whereas in case of the ethyl derivative 2b a second pair of [N,N′-(E)/(Z)]-isomeric dimers with their substituents in cis position and two trimeric forms ( 3b and 4b ) could be detected in cyclopentane. [N,N′-(E)]-1r,3t-dibenzyl- ( 2a ) and [N,N′-(E)]-1r,3t-diethyl-2,4-bis(phenylimino)-1,3-diphosphetane 2b isolated from 1,2-dimethoxyethane or cyclopentane, crystallize in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c or P2₁/n, resp., with following dimensions of the unit cell determined at temperatures of measurement of +20 ± 3°C/?130 ± 3°C: a = 2145.4(1)/569.3(1); b = 568.1(2)/719.1(2); c = 1960.2(2)/2042.6(4) pm; β 99.43(1)°/95.03(2)°; Z = (2+2) and 2, resp. X-ray structure determinations (R_w = 0.034/0.041) show both molecules to be centrosymmetric. Characteristic rounded bond lengths (pm) and angles (°) are: endocyclic P? C 185/184; C? P? C 82/81; P?

The barium dibenzamidinate moiety is sent with an angle of 120°, although this leads to different Ba? N distances of 273 and 282 pm originating from the interligand repulsion of the trimethylsilyl groups and the dme substituent. The 1,3-diazaallyl fragment with C? N bond lengths of 132 pm shows a delocalisation of the anionic charge.

C₆H₄SO₂)₂NAgAgN(SO₂C₆H₄-4-Me)₂]_n ( 6 ) were obtained from aqueous solutions. The crystallographic data are for 5 (at ?95°C): monoclinic, space group C2/c, a = 2 743.8(5), b = 600.49(12), c = 1 664.5(3) pm, β = 101.143(15)°, V = 2.6908 nm³, Z = 8, D_x = 2.040 Mg m^?3; for 6 (at ?130°C): monoclinic, space group P2₁/n, a = 1 099.8(5), b = 563.7(3), c = 2 487.7(13) pm, β = 99.68(4)°, V = 1.5203 nm³, Z = 4, D_x = 1.888 Mg m^?3. In both crystals, the silver atom has a fivefold coordination. The structure of 5 displays [(RSO₂)₂N? Ag(μ-H₂O)Ag′? N(SO₂R)₂] units with Ag? N 226.9 pm, Ag? O 236.7 pm and Ag? O? Ag′ 95.3°; the water oxygen lies on a crystallographic twofold axis. These units are extended to two fused six-membered rings by intramolecular dative bonds (S)O → Ag′ and S(O)′ → Ag (249.3 pm). One phenyl group from each (PhSO₂)₂N moiety is η²-coordinated with its p-C and one m-C atom to a silver atom of a neighbouring bicyclic unit related by a glide plane to form infinite parallel strands (p-C? Ag 252.2, m-C? Ag 263.9 pm). The strands are interconnected into parallel layers through hydrogen bonds between H₂O and sulfonyl oxygens [O …? O(S) 276.1 pm]. These layers consist of a hydrophilic inner region containing metal ions, N(SO₂)₂ fragments and water molecules, and hydrophobic surfaces formed by phenyl groups. The structure of 6 features centrosymmetric [(RSO₂)₂N? Ag? Ag′? N(SO₂R)₂] units with two intramolecular dative bonds (S)O → Ag′ and (S)O′ → Ag (Ag? Ag′ 295.4, Ag? N 226.0, Ag? O 229.4 pm). These bi-pentacyclic units are associated by translation parallel to y into infinite strands by two dative (S)O → Ag bonds per silver atom (Ag? O 243.2 and 253.3 pm).

The cyclic planar Mg₂N₂ moiety shows endocyclic NMgN angles of 95.8°. The bond lengths within this ring system to the four-coordinate, bridging nitrogen atoms N^b are 215 pm, whereas the distances between the magnesium atom and the terminal, three-coordinate nitrogen atom N^t display values of approximately 198 pm. These different coordination numbers of the nitrogen atoms affect the NSi bond length (N^tSi 171, N^bSi 177 pm).     

Synthese,Eigenschaften und Struktur von Amin-Addukten der Lithium-tris[bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl]zinkate

Synthesis, Properties, and Structure of the Amine Adducts of Lithium Tris[bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl]zincates . Bis[bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl]zinc and the aliphatic amine 1,3,5-trimethyl-1,3,5-triazinane (tmta) yield in n-pentane the 1:1 adduct, the tmta molecule bonds as an unidentate ligand to the zinc atom. Bis[bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl]zinc · tmta crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 with {a = 897.7(3); b = 1 114.4(4); c = 1 627.6(6) pm; α = 90.52(1); β = 103.26(1); γ = 102.09(1)°; Z = 2}. The central C₂ZnN moiety displays a nearly T-shaped configuration with a CZnC angle of 157° and Zn? C bond lengths of 199 pm. The Zn? N distances of 239 pm are remarkably long and resemble the loose coordination of this amine; a nearly complete dissociation of this complex is also observed in benzene. The addition of aliphatic amines such as tmta or tmeda to an equimolar etheral solution of lithium bis(trimethylsilyl)methanide and bis[bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl]zinc leads to the formation of the amine adducts of lithium tris[bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl]zincate. Lithium tris[bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl]zincate · tmeda · 2 Et₂O crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbca with {a = 1 920.2(4); b = 2 243.7(5); c = 2 390.9(5) pm; Z = 8}. In the solid state solvent separated ions are observed; the lithium cation is distorted tetrahedrally surrounded by the two nitrogen atoms of the tmeda ligand and the oxygen atoms of both the diethylether molecules. The zinc atom is trigonal planar coordinated; the long Zn? C bonds with a value of 209 pm can be attributed to the steric and electrostatic repulsion of the three carbanionic bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl substituents.

Structural Chemistry of Phosphorus-containing Chains and Rings. 2. Crystal and Molecular Structure of the Diphosphaborirane (t-BuP)₂BNEt₂ The three-membered P₂B-heterocycles 1,2-di-tert-butyl-3-diethylamino-1,2,3-diphosphaborirane, (t-BuP)₂BNEt₂, crystallizes triclinic in the space group P1 with a = 935.5 pm, b = 985.4 pm, c = 987.4 pm,α = 81.55°, β = 89.40°, γ =69.07°, and Z = 2 formula units. The main structural feature is a short B? N-bond length (138.2 pm) inside a plane P₂BN-group. The endocyclic bond angles are 54.0° on phosphorus and 72.0° on boron. The (average) bond lengths are P? P = 222.5 pm, P? C = 189.5 pm, P? B = 189.3 pm, B? N = 138.2 pm, N? C = 147.2 pm, C? C = 152.6 pm, and C? H = 98 pm. The geometry of the substituents ethyl and tert-butyl is quite normal.     

Acyl- und Alkylidenarsane. VI. Vergleichende Untersuchungen zur Struktur von Bis (2,2-dimethylpropionyl) phenylarsan und -phosphan

Acyl- and Alkylidenearsines. VI. Comparative Studies on the Structures of Bis(2,2-di-methylpropionyl)phenylarsine and -phosphine . Bis(2,2-dimethylpropionyl)phenylarsine 1a [19] and -phosphine 1b [20] prepared from the corresponding bis(trimethylsilyl) derivative and 2,2-dimethylpropionyl chloride, crystallize in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c with following dimensions of the unit cell determined at a temperature of measurement of ?70 ± 3°C/?73 ± 3°C: a = 1449.3(7)/1468.3(3); b = 1050.0(5)/985.9(2); c = 1138.5(4)/1159.4(4) pm; β = 108.27(3)/105.61(3)°; Z = 4. X-ray structure determinations (R_w = 0.044/0.044) reveal distances of 205 and 191 pm between the pnicogen and the carbon atom of the carbonyl group which, as in similar trifluoromethyl compounds [2], are definitely elongated with respect to standard values of 194 and 183 pm. Further characteristic mean bond lengths and angles are: As? C(phenyl) 194; P? C(phenyl) 184; C?O 119/121; C(O)? C 153/154; C(O)? As? C(O) 91; C(O)? P? C(O) 95; As? C? O 120; P? C? O 120; As? C(O)? C 117 and P? C(O)? C 118°.     

Trimethylsilylverbindungen der Vb-Elemente. VI. Synthese,Molekül- und Kristallstruktur des Tetrakis(trimethylsilyl)distibans im Vergleich mit Tetraphenyldistiban

Trimethylsilyl Derivatives of Vb-Elements. VI. Synthesis, Molecular and Crystal Structure of Tetrakis(trimethylsilyl)distibine Compared with Tetraphenyldistibine Tetrakis(trimethylsilyl)distibine already isolated by Breunig et al. [9] from cleavage reactions of tris(trimethylsilyl)stibine may also be obtained in high yields from lithium bis(trimethylsilyl)antimonide · 2THF and 1,2-dibromoethane in n-pentane. This compound intensely red in the solid state, but only slightly yellow in solution or in the melt crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c with a = 680.6(1); b = 1672.8(2); c = 1190.0(1) pm; β = 119.01(5)°; Z = 2 at +20°C. An X-ray structure determination (R = 0.017) shows the bis(trimethylsilyl)-stibino groups to be arranged in a transoid position. Characteristic bond lengths and angles are: Sb? Sb 286.7(1); Sb? Si 259.4 pm; Si? Sb? Si 94.46(3); Sb? Sb? Si 98.68(3) and 94.43(3)°. As in similiar 2,2′,5,5′-tetramethyldistibolyl published recently by Ashe III et al. [8] this crystal structure, too, is characterized by a nearly linear sequence of Sb? Sb groups. Compared with the sum of van-der-Waals radii the intermolecular Sb-Sb contact in such a chain is shortened from 440 to 399 pm. This probably allows electronic interactions of unknown type responsible for the colour of the crystals. In keeping with this assumption an analogous formation of chains is not found in solid, only yellow tetraphenyldistibine 5 the structure of which has already been studied by Rehder et al. [44].
