OSiMe₃ ( 1 ) is formed by reaction of Ag₂N₂O₂ with Me₃SiCl and of (Me₃Si)₂NOLi with SO₂Cl₂. Tris(trimethylsilyl)-1-hydroxytriazen ( 2 ) is formed by reaction of (Me₃Si)₃N₂Li and i-amyl nitrite. The thermolysis of 1 leads to nitrogen, trimethylsilanol, and hexamethyldisiloxane, the thermolysis of 2 leads to hexamethyldisiloxane and trimethylsilylazide. HO? N?N? NH₂ could not be isolated as a product of protolysis of 2. 2 is converted into LiO? N?N? N(SiMe₃)₂ ( 4 ) by LiNR₂ (R = Me, SiMe₃), 4 is converted into MeO? N?N? N(SiMe₃)₂ ( 5 ) by Me₂SO₄. The thermolysis of 4 leads to LiN₃ and (Me₃Si)₂O, the thermolysis of 5 leads to Me₃SiN₃ and Me₃SiOMe.     

Zum Reaktionsverhalten lithiierter Aminosilane RR′ Si(H)N(Li)SiMe3

The Reaction Behaviour of Lithiated Aminosilanes RR′Si(H)N(Li)SiMe₃ The bis(trimethylsilyl)aminosubstituted silances RR′Si(H)N(SiMe₃)₂ 11 – 16 (R,R′ = Me, Me₃SiNH, (Me₃Si)₂N) are obtained by the reaction of the lithium silylamides RR′Si(H)N(Li)SiMe₃ 1 – 10 (R,R′ = Me₃SiNLi, Me, Me₃SiNH, (M₃Si)₂N) with chlorotrimethylsilane in the polar solvent tetrahydrofurane (THF). In the reaction of the lithium silylamides [(Me₃Si)₂N]₂(Me₃SiNLi)SiH 10 with chlorotrimethylsilane in THF the rearranged product 1,1,3-tris[bis(trimethylsilyl)amino]-3-methyl-1,3-disila-butane [(Me₃Si)₂N]₂Si(H)CH₂SiMe₂N(SiMe₃)₂ 17 is formed. The reaction of the lithium silyamides RR′ Si(H)N(Li)SiMe₃ 1 – 3 (1: R = R′ = Me; 2: R = Me, R′ = Me₃SiNH; 3: R = Me, R′ = Me₃SiNLi) with chlorotrimethylsilane in the nonpolar solvent n-hexane gives the cyclodisilazanes [RR′ Si? NSiMe₃]₂ 18 – 22 (R = Me, Me₃SiNH, (Me₃Si)₂N; R′ = Me, Me₃SiNH, (Me₃Si)₂N, N(SiMe₃)Si · Me(NHSiMe₃)₂) and trimethylsilane. The lithium silylamides 4 , 5 , 6 , 9 , 10 (4: R = R′ = Me₃SiNH; 5: R = Me₃SiNH, R′ = Me₃SiNLi; 6: R = R′ = Me₃SiNLi; 9: R = (Me₃Si)₂N, R ′ = Me₃SiNLi; 10: R = R′ = (Me₃Si)₂N) shows with chlorotrimethylsilane in n-hexane no reaction.

Synthese und Eigenschaften teilsilylierter Tri- und Tetraphosphane. Reaktionen lithiierter Diphosphane mit Chlorphosphanen

Synthesis and Properties of Partially Silylated Tri- and Tetraphosphanes. Reaction of Lithiated Diphosphanes with Chlorophosphanes The reactions of Li(Me₃Si)P? P(SiMe₃)(CMe₃) 1 , Li(Me₃Si)P? P(CMe₃)₂ 2 , and Li(Me₃C)P? P(SiMe₃)(CMe₃) 3 with the chlorophosphanes P(SiMe₃)(CMe₃)Cl, P(CMe₃)₂Cl, or P(CMe₃)Cl₂ generate the triphosphanes [(Me₃C)(Me₃Si)P]₂P(SiMe₃) 4 , (Me₃C)(Me₃Si)P? P(SiMe₃)? P(CMe₃)₂ 6 , [(Me₃C)₂P]₂P(SiMe₃) 7 , and (Me₃C)(Me₃Si)P? P(SiMe₃)? P(CMe₃)Cl 8 . The triphosphane (Me₃C)₂P? P(SiMe₃)? P(SiMe₃)₂ 5 is not obtainable as easily. The access to 5 starts by reacting PCl₃ with P(SiMe₃)(CMe₃)₂, forming (Me₃C)₂ P? PCl₂, which then with LiP(SiMe₃)₂ gives (Me₃C)₂ P? P(Cl)? P(SiMe₃)₂ 11 . Treating 11 with LiCMe₃ generates (Me₃C)₂P? P(H)? P(SiMe₃)₂ 16 , which can be lithiated by LiBu to give (Me₃C)₂P? P(Li)? P(SiMe₃)₂ 13 and after reacting with Me₃SiCl, finally yields 5 . 8 is stable at ?70°C and undergoes cyclization to P₃(SiMe₃)(CMe₃)₂ in the course of warming to ambient temperature, while Me₃SiCl is split off. 7 , reacting with MeOH, forms [(Me₃C)₂P]₂PH. (Me₃C)₂P? P(Li)? P(SiMe₃)₂ 18 , which can be obtained by the reaction of 5 with LiBu, decomposes forming (Me₃C)₂P? P(Li)(SiMe₃), P(SiMe₃)₃, and LiP(SiMe₃)₂, in contrast to either (Me₃C)₂P? P(Li)? P(SiMe₃)(CMe₃) 19 or [(Me₃C)₂P]₂PLi, which are stable in ether solutions. The Li phosphides 1 , 2 , and 3 with BrH₂C? CH₂Br form the n-tetraphosphanes (Me₃C)(Me₃Si)P? [P(SiMe₃)]₂? P(SiMe₃)(CMe₃) 23 , (Me₃C)₂P? [P(SiMe₃)]₂? P(CMe₃)₂ 24 , and (Me₃C)(Me₃Si)P? [P(CMe₃)]₂? P(SiMe₃)(CMe₃) 25 , respectively. Li(Me₃Si)P? P(SiMe₃)₂, likewise, generates (Me₃Si)₂P? [P(SiMe₃)]₂? P(SiMe₃)₂ 26 . Just as the n-triphosphanes 4 , 5 , 6 , and 7 , the n-tetraphosphanes 23 , 24 , and 25 can be isolated as crystalline compounds. 23 , treated with LiBu, does nor form any stable n-tetraphosphides, whereas 24 yields (Me₃C)₂P? P(Li)? P(SiMe₃)? P(CMe₃)₂, that is stable in ethers. With MeOH, 24 , forms crystals of (Me₃C)₂P? P(H)? P(SiMe₃)? P(CMe₃)₂.     

Untersuchungen zur Bildung silylierter iso-Tetraphosphane aus P2-chlorierten Triphosphanen und Li-Phosphiden

Investigations on the Formation of Silylated iso-Tetraphosphanes We investigated the formation of iso-tetraphosphanes by reacting [Me(Me₃Si)P]₂PCl 4 , Me(Me₃Si)P? P(Cl)? P(SiMe₃)₂ 8 , Me(Me₃Si)P? P(Cl)? P(SiMe₃)(CMe₃) 9 , [Me(Me₃Si)P]₂PCl 20 , Me₃C(Me₃Si)P? P(Cl)? P(SiMe₃)₂ 21 , and [MeC(Me₃Si)P]₂PCl 22 with LiP(SiMe₃)Me 1 , LiP(SiMe₃)₂ 2 , and LiP(SiMe₃)CMe₃ 3 , respectively, to elucidate possible paths of synthesis, the influence of substituents (Me, SiMe₃, CMe₃) on the course of the reaction, and the properties of the iso-tetraphosphanes. These products are formed via a substitution reaction at the P²Cl group of the iso-triphosphanes. However, with an increasing number of SiMe₃ groups in the triphosphane as well as in reactions with LiP(SiMe₃)Me, cleaving and transmetallation reactions become more and more important. The phosphides 1,2, and 3 attack the PC1 group of 4 yielding the iso-tetraphosphanes P[P(SiMe₃)Me]₃ 5, [Me(Me₃Si)P]₂P? P(SiMe₃)₂ 6 and [Me(Me₃Si)P]₂P? P(SiMe₃)CMe₃ 7. I n reactions With 8 and 9, LiP(SiMe₃)Me causes bond cleavage and mainly leads to Me(Me₃Si)P? P(Me)? P(SiMe₃)₂ 13 and Me(Me₃Si)P? (Me)? P(SiMe₃)CMe₃ 16, resp., and to monophosphanes; minor products are [Me(SiMe₃)P]₂P? P(SiMe₃)₂ 6 and [Me(Me₂Si)P]₂P? P(SiMe₃)CMe₂ 7. LiP(SiMe₃)₂ 2 and LiP(SiMe₃)CMe₂ 3 with 8 and 9 give Me(Me₃,Si)P? P[P(SiMe₃)₂]₂ 10, Me(Me₂Si)P? P[P(SiMe₃)CMe₂]? P(SiMe₃)₂ 11, and Me(Me₃Si)P? P[P(SiMe₃)CMe₃]₂ 12 as favoured products. With 20, LiP(SiMe₃)₂ 2 forms P[P(SiMe₃)₂]₃ 28. Bond cleavage products are obtained in reactions of 20 with 1 and 2, of 21 with 1, 2, and 3, and of 22 with 1 and 2. P[P(SiMe₃)CMe₃]₃ 23 is the main product in the reaction of 22 with LiP(SiMe₃)CRle₂ 3. In the reactions of 22 with 1, 2, and 3 the cyclophosphanes P₃(CMe₃)₂(SiMe₃)25, P₄[P(SiMe₃)CMe₃]₂(CMe₃)₂ 26, and P₅(CMe₃)₄(SiMe₃) 27 are produced. The formation of these rom- pounds begins with bond cleavage in a P- SiMe, group by means of the phosphides. The thermal stability of the iso-tetraphosphanes decreases with an increasing number of silyl groups in the molecule. At 20O°C compounds 5, 7, and 23 are crystals; also 6 is stable; however, 10, It, 12, and 28 decompose already.

P(SiMe₃)₂]₂, (Me = CH₃) is synthesized from Me₂GaCl and P(SiMe₃)₃ in hot toluene.

Bildung und Reaktionen silylierter Diphosphane

Preparation and Reactions of Silylated Diphosphanes The preparation of previously not available silylated diphosphanes is reported, i. e. the compounds (Me₃Si)₂P? P(SiMe₃)(CMe₃) 1 , (Me₃Si)₂P? P(CMe₃)₂ 2 and (CMe₃)₂P? P(SiMe₃)(CMe₃) 4 as well as of the respective PH containing derivatives and Li phosphides thereof. The reaction of 1 with MeOH leads to (Me₃Si)₂P? P(CMe₃) H 6 , while 4 generates (Me₃C)₂P? P(CMe₃) H 7 , and finally 3 gives access to (Me₃C)(Me₃Si)P? P(CMe₃) H 8 . LiBu on the other hand forms the Li phosphides Li(Me₃Si)P? P(SiMe₃)(CMe₃) 10 (through 1 ), Li(Me₃Si)P? P(CMe₃)₂ 11 (through 2 ), Li(Me₃C)P? P(SiMe₃)(CMe₃) 12 (through 3 ), and Li(Me₃C)P? P(CMe₃)₂ 13 (through 4 ), the latter being more easily accessible through the reaction of H(Me₃C)P? P(CMe₃)₂ with LiBu. The introduction of one single CMe₃ substituent into 1 is sufficient to obtain the Li phosphide 10 , which is stable in ethers, as opposed to the corresponding Li Phosphide of the persilylated diphosphane.     

Bildung siliciumorganischer Verbindungen. 108. Thermisch induzierte Reaktionen aminosubstituierter Disilane

Formation of Organosilicon Compounds. 108 [1]. Thermally Induced Reactions of Amino-Substituted Disilanes Thermally induced reactions of amino-substituted disilanes yield Si rich silanes. At 300°C, Me₃Si? SiMe₂? NMeH 1 yields Me₃Si? NMeH 2 and Me₃Si? (SiMe₂)₂-NMeH 3 in a ratio 1 : 2 : 3 = 1,6 : 1 : 1, whereas Me₃Si? SiMe₂? N(iPr)H 4 at 350°C yields Me₃Si? N(iPr)H 5 , Me₃Si? (SiMe₂)₂-N(iPr)H 6 and Me₃Si? (SiMe₂)₃? N(iPr)H 7 in a ratio of 4 : 6 : 7 = 0.8 : 1.0 : 0.6. Me₃Si? SiMe₂? NMe₂ 8 at 300°C (72 h) yields Me₃Si? NMe₂ 9 and Me₃Si-(SiMe₂)₂-NMe₂ 10 in a ratio of 9 : 8 : 10 = 1 : 0.22 : 0.44 The thermal stability of these disilanes is determined by the sterical requirements of the amino substituents NMeH < NMe₂ < N(iPr)H. The introduction of a second NMe₂ group decreases the stability and favours the formation of Si rich silanes. Such, Me₂N? (SiMe₂)₂? NMe₂ 11 already at 250°C (2 h) yields Me₂N? SiMe₂? NMe₂ 12 , Me₂N? (SiMe₂)₂? NMe₂ 13 and Me₂N? (SiMe₂)₄? NMe₂ 14 in a ratio of 11 : 13 : 14 = 0.3 : 0.9 : 1.0. The reactions can be understood as insertions of thermally produced dimethylsilylene into the Si? N bond of the disilanes. This process is strongly favoured as compared to the trapping reactions with Ph? C?C? Ph or Et₃SiH. The mentioned reactions correspond closely to those of the methoxy-disilanes[2]. However (MeN? SiMe₂? SiMe₂)₂ 15 , obtained from HMeN? (SiMe₂)₂? NMeH by condensation [3], at 400°C suffers a ring contraction to octymethyl-1,3-diaza-2,4,5-trisilacyclopentane (69 weight %), and yields also some solid residue, the composition of which corresponds to Si₃C₇NH₂₁.     

Studien zur Reaktion von [Me2AlP(SiMe3)2]2 mit basenstabilisierten Organogalliumchloriden und ‐hydriden

Investigations on the Reactivity of [Me₂AlP(SiMe₃)₂]₂ with Base‐stabilized Organogalliumhalides and ‐hydrides [Me₂AlP(SiMe₃)₂]₂ ( 1 ) reacts with dmap?Ga(Cl)Me₂, dmap?Ga(Me)Cl₂, dmap?GaCl₃ and dmap?Ga(H)Me₂ with Al‐P bond cleavage and subsequent formation of heterocyclic [Me₂GaP(SiMe₃)₂]₂ ( 2 ) as well as dmap?AlMe_xCl_3?x (x = 3 8 ; 2 3 ; 1 4 ; 0 5 ). The reaction between equimolar amounts of dmap?Al(Me₂)P(SiMe₃)₂ and dmap?Ga(t‐Bu₂)Cl yield dmap?Ga(t‐Bu₂)P(SiMe₃)₂ ( 6 ) and dmap?AlMe₂Cl ( 3 ). 2 – 8 were characterized by NMR spectroscopy, 2 and 6 also by single crystal X‐ray diffraction.     

Zur Bildung der Cyclotetraphosphane cis- und trans-P4(SiMe3)2(CMe3)2 bei der Umsetzung von (Me3C)PCl2 mit LiP(SiMe3)2 · 2 THF

Formation of the Cyclotetraphosphanes cis- und trans-P₄(SiMe₃)₂(CMe₃)₂ in the Reaction of (Me₃C)PCl₂ with LiP(SiMe₃)₂ · 2 THF The mechanism of the reaction of (Me₃C)PCl₂ 1 with LiP(SiMe₃)₂ · 2 THF 2 was investigated. With a mole ration of 1:1 at ?60°C quantitatively (Me₃C)(Cl)P? P(SiMe₃)₂ 3 is formed. This compound eliminates Me₃SiCl on warming to 20°C, yielding Me₃Si? P?P? CMe₃ 4 (can be trapped using 2,3-dimethyl-1,3-butadiene in a 4+2 cycloaddition), which dimerizes to produce the cyclotetraphosphanes cis-P₄(SiMe₃)₂(CMe₃)₂ 5 and trans-P₄(SiMe₃)₂(CMe₃)₂ 6 . Also with a mole ratio of 1:2 initially 3 is formed which remarkably slower reacts on to give [(Me₃Si)₂P]P₂P? CMe₃ 8 . Remaining LiP(SiMe₃)₂ cleaves one Si? P bond of 8 producing (Me₃)₂P? P(CMe₃)? P(SiMe₃)₂Li. Via a condensation to the pentaphosphide 10 and an elimination of LiP(SiMe₃)₂ from this intermediate, eventually trans-P₄(SiMe₃)₂(CMe₃)₂ 6 is obtained as the exclusive cyclotetra-phosphane product.     

Ein Beitrag zur Reaktivität von (η5-C5Me5)(CO)2FeP(SiMe3)2 gegenüber P-Chlormethylenphosphanen

On the Reactivity of (η⁵-C₅Me₅)(CO)₂FeP(SiMe₃)₂ Toward P-Chloromethylene phosphanes The reaction of (η⁵-C₅Me₅)(CO)₂FeP(SiMe₃)₂ ( 2 ) with three equivalents of Cl? P?C(SiMe₃)₂ ( 3a ) afforded the 3-methanediyl-1,3,5,6-tetraphosphabicyclo[3.1.0]hex-2-ene (η⁵-C₅Me₅)(CO)₂Fe? ( 6a ). In contrast, 2 reacts with two equivalents of Cl? P?C(Ph)SiMe₃ ( 3b ) to give the thermolabile (η⁵-C₅Me₅) · (CO)₂Fe? P[P?C(Ph)SiMe₃]₂ ( 4b ) which decomposed during the reaction with further 3b. 4 b was also obtained from (η⁵-C₅Me₅)(CO)₂Fe? P(SiMe₃)? P?C(SiMe₃)₂ ( 1a ) and two equivalents of 3b .     

Über die Umsetzung von Thiazylfluorid mit mehrfunktionellen Stickstoffderivaten

Reaction of Thiazylfluoride with Multifunctional Nitrogen Derivatives From the reaction of NSF 1 with LiN(SiMe₃)R′ (R′ = CMe₃, SiMe₃), linear [e. g. (Me₃C? N?S?N? )₂S ( 11 ), Me₃C? N?S?N? CMe₃ ( 14 ), Me₃Si? N?S?N? SiMe₃ ( 17 ), (Me₃Si)₂N? S? N?S?N? SiMe₃ ( 19 )] and cyclic thiazenes (S₄N₅F ( 22 )) are isolated, (S₃N₄)_n ( 23 ) is obtained in high yield from 1 and 17 (in the ratio 2:1). Possible structures for 23 are discussed; the reaction of 23 with AsF₅ gives S₄N₄ · AsF₅ ( 24 ) in a hitherto unknown modification. Possible reactions of the terminal SN groups are discussed and the structures of 11 and 24 are reported.     

Transient Silenes as Versatile Synthons – The Reaction of Dichloromethyl‐tris(trimethylsilyl)silane with Organolithium Reagents

Treatment of dichloromethyl‐tris(trimethylsilyl)silane (Me₃Si)₃Si–CHCl₂ ( 1 ), prepared by the reaction of tris(trimethylsilyl)silane with chloroform in presence of potassium tertbutoxide, with organolithium reagents (molar ratio 1 : 3) affords the bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl‐disilanes Me₃SiSiR₂–CH(SiMe₃)₂ ( 12 a–d ) ( a : R = Me, b : R = n‐Bu, c : R = Ph, d : R = Mes). The formation of 12 a–d is discussed as proceeding through an exceptional series of isomerization and addition reactions involving intermediate silyl substituted carbenoids and transient silenes. The carbenoid (Me₃Si)₂PhSi–C(SiMe₃)LiCl ( 8 c ) is moderately stable at low temperature and was trapped with water to give (Me₃Si)₂PhSi–CH(SiMe₃)Cl ( 9 c ) and with chlorotrimethylsilane affording (Me₃Si)₂PhSi–CCl(SiMe₃)₂ ( 7 c ). For 12 d an X‐ray crystal structure analysis was performed, which characterizes the compound as a highly congested silane with bond parameters significantly deviating from standard values.     

Kettenverlängerung am P2(SiMe3)4 durch Reaktion mit LiBu

Extension of the Chain Length of P₂(SiMe₃)₄ by Reaction with LiBu The first steps of the reaction of P₂(SiMe₃)₄ 1 with LiBu in THF, which finally yields Li₃P₇ among other P-rich phosphides while P(SiMe₃)₃ and LiP(SiMe₃)₂ are simultaneously split off, were investigated by means of ³¹P-NMR spectroscopy. At ?20°C first of all one Si? P bond is cleaved generating Li(Me₃Si)P? P(SiMe₃)₂ 2 as well as BuSiMe₃. Subsequently 2 forms Li(Me₃Si)P? P(SiMe₃)? P(SiMe₃)₂ 5 and LiP(SiMe₃)₂ 4 in equimolar ratios. This clearly demonstrates that both compounds are generated in one single reaction step. This behaviour is caused by the different basicity of the respective P-atoms in 2 , which necessarily results in a multicentered mechanism.     

Synthese von Aryl-bis(trimethylsilyl)-phosphonsäureestern via Tris-trimethylsilylphosphit – Ein Beitrag zur nickel- katalysierten Michaelis-Arbusov-Reaktion

[(C6H5)3P]2Ni(Me3Si?CC?SiMe3). Darstellung,Eigenschaften und Struktur des ersten stabilen Nickel(0)-Komplexes von Bis-trimethylsilylacetylen

[(C₆H₅)₃P]₂Ni(Me₃Si? C?C? SiMe₃). Preparation, Properties, and Structure of the First Stable Nickel(0) Complex with Bis(trimethylsilyl)acetylene The title compound is the first example of a nickel(0) complex with bis(trimethylsilyl)acetylene and obtained from (ph₃P)₂Ni(C₂H₄) and bis(trimethylsilyl)acetylene in tetrahydrofuran. The complex is characterized by some reactions, the i.r. spectrum and by a structural analysis with the aid of X-ray diffraction data. (ph₃P)₂Ni(Me₃Si? C?C? SiMe₃) crystallizes monoclinic in the space group C2/c with four formula units per unit cell (2468 observed, independent reflexions, R = 0.038). The cell dimensions are a = 20.927, b = 13.812, c = 14.238 Å, α = γ = 90°, β = 91.02°. The molecules are monomer in crystalls. The molecule is planar with ligands arranged trigonally about the central atome but distorted to the tetrahedral complex.     

Synthese von substituierten Calcium-bis(disilylamiden) mittels der Transmetallierung von Zinn(II)- und Zinn(IV)-amiden

Synthesis of Substituted Calcium-bis(disilylamides) by Transmetalation of Tin(II) and Tin(IV) Amides Stannylenes as well as stannanes with substituted disilylamino groups are valuable synthons for the synthesis of alkaline earth metal bis(disilylamides) via the transmetallation reaction. Whereas bis[2,2,5,5-tetramethyl-2,5-disilaaza-cyclo-pentyl]stannylene 1 is a suitable reagent for this type of reaction, bis[trimethylsilyl-tris(trimethylsilyl)silylamino]stannylene 2 (monoclinic, P2₁/c, a = 1492.6(2), b = 1705.2(2), c = 1865.3(3) pm, β = 109.03(2)º, Z = 4) is not only attacked at the Sn? N-bond but also the N? Si-bond is cleaved by calcium metal. Similar light sensitivity as for 2 is observed for the mercury bis[trimethylsilyl-tris(trimethylsilyl)silylamide] 3 , the homolytic M? N-bond cleavage leads to the formation of the trimethylsilyl-tris(trimethylsilyl)silylamino radical (g = 2.00485; a(N) = 16.2 G). The calcium tin exchange reaction of 1 in THF yields tris(tetrahydrofuran-O)calcium-bis[2,2,5,5-tetramethyl-2,5-disilaaza-cyclo-pentanide] 4 (monoclinic, P2₁/n, a = 1060.9(2), b = 1919.3(5), c = 1686.0(3) pm, β = 90.30(2)º, Z = 4). The stannanes Me_n-4Sn[N(SiMe₃)₂]_n with n = 1 or 2 are also valuable materials for the synthesis of bis(tetrahydrofuran-O)calcium-bis[bis(trimethylsilyl)amide].     

Untersuchungen zur Umsetzung von [Lithium(trimethylsilyl)amido]-methyl-trimethylsilylamino-silan Me(Me3SiNLi)(Me3SiNH)SiH mit verschiedenen Elektrophilen

Investigations of the Reaction between the [Lithium(trimethylsilyl)amido]-methyl-trimethyl-silylamino-silane Me(Me₃SiNLi)(Me₃SiNH)SiH and different Electrophiles The lithium silylamide Me(Me₃SiNLi)(Me₃SiNH)SiH 1 reacts with chlorotrimethylsilan in the nonpolar solvent n-hexane to the N-substitution product Me[(Me₃Si)₂N](Me₃SiNH)SiH 2 and to the cyclodisilazane [Me(Me₃SiNH)Si—N(SiMe₃)]₂ 3 nearly in same amounts. The reaction of 1 with chlorotrimethylstannane gives besides small amounts of the cyclodisilazane 3 the N-substitution product Me[(Me₃Si)(Me₃Sn)N](Me₃SiNH)SiH 4 . By the reaction of 1 with trimethylsilyltriflate the cyclodisilazane 3 is obtained as the main product. Furthermore 2 and the cyclodisilazane 5 are formed. Ethylbromide shows no reaction with 1 under the same conditions. These results indicate the existence of an equilibrium of the lithium silylamide 1 , the silanimine Me(Me₃SiNH)Si?N(SiMe₃) and lithium hydride.

O Bond Splitting at the Reaction of Lithiated Siloxy-silylamino-silanes with Chlorotrimethylsilane Lithiated Siloxy-silylamino-silanes were allowed to react in tetrahydrofurane (THF) and in n-octane (favoured) and n-hexane, resp., with chlorotrimethylsilane. The monoamide (Me₃SiO)Me₂Si(NLiSiMe₃) gives in THF and in n-octane the N-substitution product (Me₃SiO)Me₂Si · [N(SiMe₃)₂] 1 , the diamide (Me₃SiO)MeSi(NLiSiMe₃)₂ only in THF the N-substitution products (Me₃SiO)MeSi[N(SiMe₃)₂]₂ 2 (main product) and (Me₃SiO)MeSi[N(SiMe₃)₂](NHSiMe₃) 3 . In n-octane the diamide reacts mainly under Si? O bond splitting. The cyclodisilazane [(Me₃SiNH)MeSi? NSiMe₃]₂ 6 is obtained as the main product. Byproducts are 2, 3 and the tris(trimethylsilylamino) substituted disilazane (Me₃SiO)(Me₃SiNH)MeSi? N · (SiMe₃)? SiMe(NHSiMe₃)₂ 7 . The triamide (Me₃SiO)Si · (NLiSiMe₃)₃ reacts under Si? O and Si? N bond splitting in n-octane as well as in THF. The cyclodisilazanes [(Me₃SiNH)₂ · Si? NSiMe₃]₂ 10 and ( 11 : R = Me₃SiNH, 12 : R = (Me₃Si)₂N) are formed. in THF furthermore the N-substitution products (Me₃SiO)Si[N(SiMe₃)₂] · (NHSiMe₃)₂ 4 and (Me₃SiO)Si[N(SiMe₃)₂]₂(NHSiMe₃) 5 . The Si? O bond splitting occurs in boiling n-octane also in absence of the chlorotrimethylsilane. An amide solution of (Me₃SiO)MeSi(NHSiMe₃)₂ with n-butyllithium in the molar ratio 1 : 1 leads in n-octane and n-hexane to 6 and 7 , in THF to 3 . The amide solutions of (Me₃SiO)Si · (NHSiMe₃)₃ with n-butyllithium the molar ratio 1 : 1 and 1 : 2 give in THF 4 and 5 , respectively.
