Contributions to the Chemistry of Silicon Sulfur Compounds. XXXIV. Tetrameric Silver(I)-tri-tert-butoxysilanethiolate Silver(I)-tri-tert-butoxysilanethiolate is formed as a tetramere by reaction of tritert-butoxysilanethiol with AgNO₃. The compound crystallizes as colourless triclinic plates and sublimes in vacuum at 170°C without decomposition. F.I. mass spectra shows only the mass of the tetrameric unit (m/e = 1 548), whereas this unit is observed in E.I. mass spectra with lower intensity. The ²⁹Si n.m.r. spectrum shows a remarkable splitting of the signal around ?68.54 ppm, which is explained by Si? Ag couplings. The central unit of the molecule is a nearly plane alternating Ag₄S₄ eight-membered ring with threefold bonded sulfur and twofold bonded silver atoms. Most important are the significant deviations from colinear S? Ag? S bonds (172.3°) resulting from shifts of the silver atoms toward the center of the eight-membered Ag₄S₄ ring (Ag? Ag = 313.5 pm). This effect is taken as a strong indication for high order direct Ag(I)-to-Ag(I) interactions. Related details of the structure are discussed. (Molecule symmetry is 2-C₂; space group P1 ; a = 1 769.7, b = 2012.8, c = 1 266.8 pm, α = 119.63°, β = 82.22°, γ = 95.08°; Z = 2; R = 0.067; 7 656 reflections h kl.)

Contributions to the Chemistry of Silicon Sulfur Compounds. XXXVIII. Hexa(tri-t-butoxy)disiloxane and Hexa(tri-t-butoxy)disilthiane Hexa(tri-t-butoxy)disiloxane 1 and Hexa(tri-t-butoxy)disilthiane 2 were prepared by reaction of R₃SiONa with R₃SiCl and R₃SiSNa with R₃SiCl (R = tri-t-butoxy), respectively. The mass spectra show characteristic series of fragments. A large ²⁹Si n.m.r. chemical shift of about —103.55 ppm is observed with 1 , whereas the value of 2 is —75.99 ppm. The crystal structure analysis of 1 result first in a colinear molecule (Si? ;O? ;Si = 180°) with 1 symmetry and relative short mean bond lengths of about d(Si? ;O) = 155.6 pm, but with large and strong anisotropic ellipsoids. Their quantitative rigid body analyses yield decisive corrections, namely a bent molecule with an Si? ;O? ;Si angle of 144.0° and d?_corr = 163.5 pm. Molecule 2 is also bent as expected (Si? ;S? ;Si = 110.5°, d?(Si? ;S) = 211.9 pm and after rigid body correction 108.0° and d_corr = 215.2 pm, respectively). The results of our investigations will be discussed corresponding to the energy differences of the varying configurations at the bridging atoms.

Cyclische Diazastannylene. XV [1]. Charakterisierung einer instabilen Zwischenstufe: 1,3-Di-tert-butyl-2,2-dimethyl-4-tert-butylammonium-1,3,2,4λ3-diazasilastannatetidin

Cyclic Diazastannylenes. XV. Characterization of an Unstable Intermediate: 1,3-Di-tert-butyl-2,2-dimethyl-4-tert-butyl-ammonium-1,3,2,4λ³-diazasilastannatetidine The primary step in the reaction of 1, 3-di-tert-butyl-2,2-dimethyl-1,3,2,4λ²-diazasilastannetidine ( 1 ) with tert-butylamine is the formation of the Lewis-acid-base adduct 5 . In 5 the electrophilic tin atom of 1 is coordinated by the nucleophilic nitrogen atom of the tert-butylamine. 5 crystallizes below ?110°C in a triclinic cell with dimensions (conventional cell see Table 2): a = 1034(4), b = 1492(5), c = 654(3) pm, α= 89.9(3), β = 96.8(3), γ = 91.6(3)°, Z = 2. Above ?110°C the triclinic phase of 5 can be transformed to a monoclinic one (space group P2₁/m) with cell dimensions a = 1048(3), b = 1513(4), c = 654(2) pm, β = 96.9(3)°, Z = 2. An X-ray structural investigation of the latter phase reveals the adduct 5 to have C_S(m)-point symmetry. Important molecular dimensions are the rather long donor bond Sn→N of 242(3) pm, the Sn? N distances within the ring of 211(2) pm and the trigonal pyramidal coordination of the tin atom with mean N? Sn? N angles of 82.3°. The nitrogen atoms of the ring are pyramidal disturbing the planarity of the ring by a bending of 12°. This geometry is due to intramolecular N? H contacts (～290 pm) of the amino-hydrogen atoms with the nitrogen atoms of the ring. Some conclusions for the reaction path can be drawn from the structure of 5 .

X-ray structure determinations of 2b and HN(SO₂C₂H₅)₂ ( 3 ) are reported. In 2b , the NS₃ group is approximately planar (S? N? S bond angles 119.0 ± 0.6°, sum of bond angles at N 356.9°); the S? N bond lengths of ca. 173 pm indicate a bond order of 1. In compound 3 , the nitrogen atom has a planar coordination (S? N? S angle 125.3°, sum of bond angles at N 359.3°), the S? N bond lengths of ca. 165 pm correlate with a bond order of 1.3? 1.4.     

Bildung siliciumorganischer Verbindungen. 96. Bildung und Struktur von P-Yliden des 1,3,5-Trisilacyclohexans (Einfluß der Substituenten)

Formation of Organosilicon Compounds. 96. Preparation and Structure of P-Ylides of the 1,3,5-Trisilahexanes (Influence of the Substituents) The influence of the substituents at the silicon atoms on formation and structure of ylides of 1,3,5-trisilacyclohexanesis investigated. The reactions of 1 , 2 , 3 with Me₃Si? PMe₂ lead via cleavage of the Si? P bond and subsequent rearrangement to the ylides 4 , 5 and 6 . The x-ray structure determination reveals, that the atoms of the ylid part of 4 are in a plane with the shortened bond distances d(C? P) = 168.6 pm and d(Si? C) = 180.1 pm, whereas the other endocyclic Si? C distances remain nearly unaffected by the ylid formation. Only the endocyclic bond angles C? Si? C of the Si atoms of the ylid are enlarged (116°). In the molecule 6 d(C? P) = 164.6 pm is much shorter, but d(P? Br) = 236.6 pm is enlarged. This enlargement is coupled with a deviation of 17 pm for the ylidic C atom from the ylid plane. Distances and angles are normal in the methylated trisilnhexane. The ring in 6 has boat conformation, in 4 a flat chair conformation.

The new isotypic compounds crystallize in spacegroup C2/c with Z = 8 and lattice constants a = 684.70(7) pm, b = 712.64(5) pm, c = 1822.4(2) pm, β = 92.76(1)° for Tl[CuAsO₄] and a = 671.57(8) pm, b = 697.09(6) pm, c = 1789.1(2) pm, β = 93.12(1)° for Tl[CuPO₄]. Square planar [CuO₄]-units are connected by common corners to form undulated [CuO₃]₂-chains running along [010]. Interconnection of the chains by arsenate or phosphate groups results in the formation of anionic cuprate-arsenate- and cuprate-phosphate-slabs, respectively. Along [001] these slabs are alternating with double layers of thallium(I) ions in which the stereochemical activity of the Tl⁺ lone pair is apparent from an hemispheric coordination of thallium by oxygen. The structure is related to that of the orthorhombic form of KCuPO₄.

The reaction of 1 with elemental copper under dehalogenation at carbon produces 3, 4 and 11 . In the reaction of 1 with CaSi₂ no additional Si? C bonds are formed, exclusively chlorosilanes with multiple C? C bonds as 3, 4 and 10 were found besides of SiCl₄. The bicyclo[2.1.1]hexane 6 (Tab. 1) crystallizes monoclinically in the space group C2/c (no. 15) with a = 1557.8, b = 857.4, c = 1727.3 pm, β = 104.34° und Z = 4 molecules per unit cell; the hexatetraene 10 (Tab. 1) crystallizes monoclinically in the space group C2/m (no. 12) with a = 1189.6, b = 1433.8, c = 983.5 pm, β = 98.75° pm, and Z = 2 molecules per unit cell. The skeleton of 6 is a system of high bond stress with 2-C₂ symmetry. The strongly folded (138.8°) four-membered ring (sum of angles = 344.2°) and the presence of both a Si? Si bond length of 238.2 pm and a Si? Si non-bonding distance of 255.1 pm are remarkable aspects of this feature. The mean bond lengths in the bicyclic compound were found to be d(Si? C) = 190.9 pm and d(Si? C) = 185.1 pm for exo- and endocyclic bonds, respectively. The skeleton of 10 is of the symmetry 2/m-C_2h. The six-membered chain is plane. The central C? C single bond length and the mean distance of the cumulated double bonds are 148.6 pm and 130.5 pm, respectively.

Contributions to the Chemistry of Silicon-Sulfur Compounds. XXX. Structure of Tetra-t-butoxy-1,3,2,4-dithiadisiletane Alcoholysis of silicon disulfide by t-butanol yielded the title compound. [(t-BuO)₂SiS]₂ crystallizes orthorhombically in the space group Pbca (no. 61) with a = 1708.4(5), b = 1560.8(3), c = 907.1(3) pm and Z = 4 molecules per unit cell. The molecule has the crystallographic 1 –C_i point symmetry and consequently the Si₂S₂ four-membered ring is rigid plane. The bond distances of this ring are Si? S = 214.2 and 213.1 pm and the bond angles S? Si? S = 97.8° and Si? S? Si = 82.2°. Related details of the structure are discussed.
