The molecular structure of 2 was investigated by an X-ray structure analysis. Compound 2 crystallises in the monoclinic space group P2₁, Z = 2, a = 938.1(1), b = 1 424.1(2), c = 1 207.2(1) pm, β = 110.59(1)°, R = 2.05% for 4 102 reflexions.

Reaktionen des tBu(Me3Si)P?P(Li)?P(tBu)2 mit CH3Cl und 1,2-Dibromethan

Reactions of tBu(Me₃Si)P? P(Li)? P(tBu)₂ with CH₃Cl and 1,2-Dibromoethane tBu(Me₃Si)P? P(Li)? P(tBu)₂ · 0.95 THF 1 with CH₃Cl (?70°C) yields tBu(Me₃Si)P? P = P(Me)(tBu)₂ 2 at ?70°C, with 1,2-Dibromoethane tBu(Me₃Si)P? PBr? P(tBu)₂ 3 (main product) and tBu(Me₃Si)P? P?P(Br)tBu₂ 4. 3 eliminates Me₃SiBr yielding the cyclotetraphosphane {tBuP?

Synthese und Kristallstruktur eines μ-Methylen-μ-hydrido-dialanats [R2Al(μ-CH2)(μ-H)AlR2]− (R = CH(SiMe3)2)

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a μ-Methylene-μ-hydrido-dialanate [R₂Al(μ-CH₂)(μ-H)AlR₂]^? (R = CH(SiMe₃)₂) tert-Butyl lithium reacts with the recently synthesized methylene bridged dialuminium compound [(Me₃Si)₂CH]₂Al? CH₂? Al[CH(SiMe₃)₂]₂ 2 in the presence of TMEDA under β-elimination; the thereby formed hydride anion is bound in a chelating manner by both unsaturated aluminium atoms forming a 3c–2e–Al? H? Al bond. The crystal structure of the product shows two independent molecules differing only slightly in bond lengths and angles, but significantly in conformation. While one of the Al₂CH heterocycles deviates little from planarity with a rough C₂ symmetry for the whole anion, the other one is folded with an angle of 21.1° and the arrangement of the substituents is best described by C_s symmetry.     

Nitrido-Sodalithe. III [1]. Synthese,Struktur und Eigenschaften von Zn8[P12N24]X2 mit X = O,S, Se,Te

Nitrido-Sodalites. III. Synthesis, Crystal Structure, and Properties of Zn₈[P₁₂N₂₄]X₂ with X = O, S, Se, Te The P? N-sodalites Zn₈[P₁₂N₂₄]X₂ with X = O, S, Se, Te are obtained by the reaction of HPN₂ with the corresponding zinc chalcogenide ZnX at 750°C. They crystallize in a filled up variant of Zn₇[P₁₂N₂₄]Cl₂ and are isotypic to Zn₈[B₁₂O₂₄]O₂ (I4 3m, a = 823 to 830 pm, Z = 1). The P? N-sodalites contain in the center of their β-cages XZn₄⁶⁺ units which can be described as sections of II/VI-semiconductors. The UV/Vis-spectra of the compounds show in comparison with binary bulk zinc chalcogenides a blue shift of the absorption edge according to the size quantization effect.     

Periphere Anbindung von Quecksilber(II)-iodid an dreikernige Molybdän-Schwefel-Dithiophosphinatocluster: [Mo3S4(R2PS2)4HgI2] (R = Et,Pr)

Peripheral Bonding of Mercury(II) Iodide to Trinuclear Molybdenum-Sulfur-Dithiophosphinato Clusters: [Mo₃S₄(R₂PS₂)₄HgI₂] (R = Et, Pr) Reaction of Mo₃S₄(R₂PS₂)₄ 1 (a : R = Et, b : R = Pr) with HgI₂ in THF yields the diamagnetic title complexes [Mo₃S₄(R₂PS₂)₄HgI₂] 3 . The crystal structure of [ 3a (H₂O)] · 2 CH₂Cl₂ shows the complexes to consist of a triangular array of Mo atoms which are bridged by μ₂? S atoms and capped by a μ₃? S atom. Each of the Mo atoms is chelated by a dithiophosphinato ligand Et₂PS₂^? and in addition two Mo atoms are bridged by a Et₂PS₂^? ligand while the H₂O molecule is bonded weakly to the third Mo atom. Thus, all Mo atoms reveal a distorted octahedral coordination sphere. HgI₂ is ?peripherally”? bonded to the cluster via two S atoms, one of which belongs to a chelating ligand and the other one to the bridging ligand. Space group P1 , lattice constants a = 12.157(2), b = 15.284(3), c = 16.049(3) Å, α = 115.56(1), β = 107.35(1), and γ = 94.62(1)°; Z = 2, d_calc = 2.23 mg/mm³; 4 236 observed reflections, R = 0.068. In organic solvents complexes 3 are strong electrolytes. VT-³¹P NMR data suggest a stepwise dissociation of 3 with formation of [Mo₃S₄(R₂PS₂)₃] ⁺[(R₂PS₂)HgI₂]^? and elimination of the bridging ligand from the cluster.     

Lithium-bis(silyl)amide und Tris(silyl)amine Synthese und Kristallstrukturen

Lithium Bis(silyl)amides and Tris(silyl)amines Synthesis and Crystal Structures Lithiated di-tert-butylfluorosilylamine reacts with difluorosilanes by substitution ( 1, 2 ). The siloxy-( 3, 4 ) and tert-butyloxy-( 5 )-silylamines are formed in reaction of 1 and 2 with LiOR (R = SiMe₃, CMe₃). The lithium derivatives of 3 and 4 are dimers forming an (LiFSiN)₂-eight-membered ring ( 6, 7a ). Using 12 crown-4 the amide and the coordinated lithium are forming free ions ( 7 c ). The lithium derivative of 5 ( 8 ) crystallizes as a dimeric LiF-adduct of an iminosilane, forming a LiF-four-membered ring. In thf 7 reacts with Me₃SiCl by a fluorine/chlorine exchange and 9 is obtained. In 9 lithium is coordinated with nitrogen, oxygen and two thf molecules, forming an (SiNOLi)-four-membered ring. 6 and 7 react with fluorosilanes to give tris(silyl)amines 10 – 12 .     

Synthese und Molekülstruktur des (N,N′ -Dimethylpiperazin)lithium-(μ-hydrido)(tert-butyl)bis[bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl]alanats mit intramolekularer Wechselwirkung zwischen Lithium und C?H?σ-Bindungen

Synthesis and Molecular Structure of (N,N′-Dimethyl-piperazine)lithium-(·-hydrido)(tert-butyl)bis[bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl]alanate with an Intramolecular Interaction between Lithium and C? H-σ-Bonds Syntheses and properties of the starting compounds bis[bromo-di(tert-butyl)alane] 3 , bis[dibromo-tert-butyl-alane] 4 , and (tert-butyl)bis[bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl]alane 5 are described. In the presence of 5 and the chelating amine N,N′-dimethylpiperazine lithium tert-butyl gives via μ-elimination isobutene and LiH, which is taken up by the starting alane 5 to give the title compound 6 . No attack of the strong base (lithium alkyl/amine) to the bis(trimethylsilyl) methyl substituent is observed as recently occured for the sterically more crowded tris[bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl]alane. Crystal structure of 6 shows a angled Li? H? Al bridge and a short intramolecular contact between Li and C? H-σ-bonds of a trimethylsilyl group.     

Building und Reaktionen des Phosphanyliden-Phosphorans (tBu)2P?P = PX(tBu)2 (X = Br,Cl)

Formation and Reaction of the Phosphanylidene-phosphorane (tBu)₂P? P = PX(tBu)₂ (X = Br, Cl) The formation of (tBu)₂P? P = P(Br)tBu₂ 1 from [(tBu)₂P]₂PLi and BrH₂C? CH₂Br begins with an exchange of Li against Br and is then determined by the migration of Br from the secondary P atom in [(tBu)₂P]₂PBr 6 to the primary P in 1 . Similarly, (tBu)₂P? P = PC1(tBu)₂ 2 is obtained starting from PCl₃ and LiP(tBu)₂. The formation of Phospanylidene—phosporane is not influenced by the choice o the halogene substituent, but the presence of the tBu groups is strongly required. (tBu)₂P? P(Li)? P(SiMe₃)₂ e. g., yields (tBu)₂P? P(br)? P(SiMe₃)₂ with BrH₂C? CH₂Br; however neither this nor (tBu)₂P? P(Cl)? P(SiMe₃)₂ do rearrange to a Phosphanylidene-phosphorane. The F₃C substituent could be neglected in this investigation as [(F₃C)₂P]₂P? SiMe₃ cannot be lithiated by means of BuLi. Compounds 1 and 2 display a charateristic temperature dependent behavior. While 1 at +20°C decomposes via the reactive intermediate (tBu)₂P? P to from the cyclophosphanes P₃[P(tBu)₂]₄, it gives crystals of [(tBu)₂P]₂P? p[P(tBu)₂]₂ at ?20°C (from a solution in toluene). Reacting 1 with tBuLi produces (tBu)₂P? P = P(H)tBu₂ 20 and (tBu)₂P? P(H)? P(tBu)₂ 14 . Initially, a transmetallation yield tBuBr and (tBu)₂ P? P=Pli(tBu)₂ 21 ,then LiBr and isobutene are eliminated and 20 is formed which can rearrange to produce 14 . Without the elimination of isobutene, 1 react with nBuLi to give 21 witch can be trapped with Me₃SiCl as (tBu)₂P? P(tBu)₂ 23 . The main product in in this reaction is however [(tBu)₂P]₂P? nBu 22 .     

Zur Bildung und Struktur der Phosphinophosphiniden-phosphorane tBu2P?PP(Me)tBu2 1, tBu(Me3Si)P?PP(Me)tBu2 2 und tBu2P?PP(Br)tBu2 3

Synthesis and Structure of Phosphinophosphinidene-phosphoranes tBu₂P? P?P(Me)tBu₂ 1, tBu(Me₃Si)P? P?P(Me)tBu₂ 2, and tBu₂P? P?P(Br)tBu₂ 3 A new method for the synthesis of 1 and 2 (Formulae see ?Inhaltsübersicht”?) is reported based on the reaction of 5 with substitution reagents (Me₂SO₄ or CH₃Cl). The results of the X-ray structure determination of 1 and 2 are given and compared with those of 3 . While in 3 one P? P distance corresponds to a double bond and the other P? P distance to a single bond (difference 12.5 pm) the differences of the P? P distances in 1 and 2 are much smaller: 5.28 pm in 1 , 4.68 pm in 2 . Both 1 and 2 crystallize monoclinic in the space group P2₁/n (Z = 4). 2 additionally contains two disordered molecules of the solvent pentane in the unit cell. Parameters of 1 : a = 884.32(8) pm, b = 1 924.67(25) pm, c = 1 277.07(13) pm, β = 100.816(8)°, and of 2 : a = 1 101.93(12) pm, b = 1 712.46(18) pm, c = 1 395.81(12) pm, β = 111.159(7)°, all data collected at 143 K. The skeleton of the three P atoms is bent (PPP angle 100.95° for 1 , 100.29° for 2 and 105.77° for 3 ). Ab initio SCF calculations are used to discuss the bonding situation in the molecular skeleton of the three P atoms of 1 and 3 . The results show a significant contribution of the ionic structure R₂P? P(^?)? P(⁺)(X)R₂. The structure with (partially) charged P atoms is stabilized by bulky polarizable groups R (as tBu) as compared to the fully covalent structure R₂P? P(X)? PR₂.     

tBu2P?PP(X)tBu2-Ylide (X = Cl,Br, I) durch Halogenierung von [tBu2P]2P?SiMe3

tBu₂P? P?P(X)tBu₂ Ylides (X = Cl, Br, I) by Halogenation of [tBu₂P]₂P? SiMe₃ [tBu₂P]₂P? SiMe₃ 1 with halogenating agents as Br₂, I₂, Br-succinimide, CCl₄, CBr₄, CI₄ or C₂Cl₆ via cleavage of the Si? P bond in 1 produces the ylides tBu₂P? P?P(X)tBu₂ (X = Cl, Br, I). This proceeds independent from the formerly known pathway – [tBu₂P]₂PLi + 1,2-dibromoethane – and shows that the Li-phosphide must not be present as a necessary requirement for the formation of ylides.     

Darstellung von Dithiatetrazocinen und Folgereaktionen

Preparation of Dithiatetrazocine and Secondary Reactions Li[PhCN₂(SiMe₃)₂] ( 1 ) or PhCN₂(SiMe₃)₃ ( 3 ) react with SCl₂ to give in good yields the dithiatetrazocine PhC(NSN)₂CPh ( 2 ). By analogy, p-MeC₆H₄C(NSN)₂CC₆H₄Me-p ( 7 ), p-NO₂C₆H₄C(NSN)₂-CC₆H₄NO₂-p ( 8 ), and p-CF₃C₆H₄C(NSN)₂CC₆H₄CF₃-p ( 9 ) are obtained from the reaction of p-MeC₆H₄CN₂(SiMe₃)₃ ( 4 ), Li[p-NO₂-C₆H₄CN₂(SiMe₃)₂] ( 5 ), und Li[p-CF₃C₆H₄CN₂(SiMe₃)₂] ( 6 ) with SCl₂. Reaction of 2 /LiCl with AgAsF₆ in liquid SO₂ leads to [PhCN₂S₂]⁺[AsF₆]⁻ ( 10 ) and 3[PhCN₂S₂]⁺2[AsF₆]⁻Cl⁻ ( 11 ). The structures of 10 and 11 are confirmed by X-ray analyses.     

Synthese und Molekülstruktur zweier 1-Sila-3-alanata-cyclobutan-Derivate mit AlC2Si-Heterozyklus

Synthesis and Molecular Structure of Two 1-Sila-3-alanata-cyclobutane Derivatives with Four-membered AlC₂Si-Heterocycles The C? H acidic bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl compounds Me₃C? AlR₂ und Me₃C? CH₂? AlR₂ (R ? CH(SiMe₃)₂) are deprotonated by treatment with the sterically high shielded base LiCH(SiMe₃)₂ in the presence of 1,3,5-trimethylhexahydrotriazinane. The deprotonation occurs at a methyl group of one of the element-organic substituents, and the formed carbanions are stabilized by coordination to the unsaturated Al atoms yielding four-membered heterocycles. Both products were characterized by a crystal structure determination each showing bent ring systems.     

Application of unsymmetrical indirect covariance NMR methods to the computation of the (13)C <--> (15)N HSQC-IMPEACH and (13)C <--> (15)N HMBC-IMPEACH correlation spectra

Utilization of long-range (1)H--(15)N heteronuclear chemical shift correlation has continually grown in importance since the first applications were reported in 1995. More recently, indirect covariance NMR methods have been introduced followed by the development of unsymmetrical indirect covariance processing methods. The latter technique has been shown to allow the calculation of hyphenated 2D NMR data matrices from more readily acquired nonhyphenated 2D NMR spectra. We recently reported the use of unsymmetrical indirect covariance processing to combine (1)H--(13)C GHSQC and (1)H--(15)N GHMBC long-range spectra to yield a (13)C--(15)N HSQC-HMBC chemical shift correlation spectrum that could not be acquired in a reasonable period of time without resorting to (15)N-labeled molecules. We now report the unsymmetrical indirect covariance processing of (1)H--(13)C GHMBC and (1)H--(15)N IMPEACH spectra to afford a (13)C--(15)N HMBC-IMPEACH spectrum that has the potential to span as many as six to eight bonds. Correlations for carbon resonances long-range coupled to a protonated carbon in the (1)H--(13)C HMBC spectrum are transferred via the long-range (1)H--(15)N coupling pathway in the (1)H--(15)N IMPEACH spectrum to afford a much broader range of correlation possibilities in the (13)C--(15)N HMBC-IMPEACH correlation spectrum. The indole alkaloid vincamine is used as a model compound to illustrate the application of the method.     

Thermolyse sterisch überladener Alanate; Synthese zweier neuer 1-Sila-3-alanata-cyclobutan-Derivate mit AlC2Si-Heterozyklus

Thermolysis of Sterically Stressed Alanates; Synthesis of Two New 1-Sila-3-alanata-cyclobutane Derivatives with Four-membered AlC₂Si-Heterocycles The reaction of high shielded alkyl or aryl alanes with LiCH(SiMe₃)₂ in the presence of the chelating N,N′,N″-trimethyl-triazinane yields the sterically stressed alanates [(Me₃C)₂Al{CH(SiMe₃)₂}₂]^? 12 and [R? Al{CH(SiMe₃)₂}₃]^? (R = Me₃SiCH₂ 13 , Et 14 , Me 15 , C₆H₅ 16 ) each with a Li(triazinane)₂ counter ion. On thermolysis of the sterically most shielded derivatives 12 and 13 at 130 to 150°C one equivalent of bis(trimethylsilyl)methane is liberated, and by deprotonation of methyl groups carbanionic species are formed, which are stabilized by intramolecular coordination to the unsaturated aluminium atoms under formation of AlC₂Si heterocycles ( 19 and 20 ). 20 was characterized by a single crystal structure determination. The remaining alanates give under similar conditions either under dismutation the recently published heterocycle 1 with two intact CH(SiMe₃)₂ groups ( 14 and 15 ) or a methyl alanate by the replacement of a elementorganic substituent ( 16 ).     

Amide‐Directed Tandem C?C/C?N Bond Formation through C?H Activation

The transformation of C? H bonds into other chemical bonds is of great significance in synthetic chemistry. C? H bond‐activation processes provide a straightforward and atom‐economic strategy for the construction of complex structures; as such, they have attracted widespread interest over the past decade. As a prevalent directing group in the field of C? H activation, the amide group not only offers excellent regiodirecting ability, but is also a potential C? N bond precursor. As a consequence, a variety of nitrogen‐containing heterocycles have been obtained by using these reactions. This Focus Review addresses the recent research into the amide‐directed tandem C? C/C? N bond‐formation process through C? H activation. The large body of research in this field over the past three years has established it as one of the most‐important topics in organic chemistry.     

Antibacterial Behavior of Pyridinecarboxylatesilver(I) Complexes

FT‐IR spectroscopy of carboxylic groups and viability tests were useful to understand the antibacterial properties of six highly efficient silver(I) pyridinecarboxylate (nicotinic, picolinic and isonicotinic acids) and bipiridinecarboxylate (pyridine‐2,3‐dicarboxylic, pyridine‐2,4‐dicarboxylic and pyridine‐2,5‐dicarboxylic acids) complexes with Ag? O and Ag? N bonds against E. coli (ATCC 25922) and Streptococcus agalactiae (ISP 329‐09). The results show a tendency between the nature of Ag? X (X=oxygen and nitrogen) bonds and the rate or efficiency of antibacterial behavior.     

Reaktionen von (tBu)2P?PP(Br)tBu2 mit LiP(SiMe3)2, LiPMe2 und LiMe,LitBu, LinBu

Reactions of (tBu)₂P? P?P(Br)tBu₂ with LiP(SiMe₃)₂, LiPMe₂ and LiMe, LitBu and LinBu The reactions of (tBu)₂P? P?P(Br)tBu₂ 1 with LiP(SiMe₃)₂ 2 yield (Me₃Si)₂P? P(SiMe₃)₂ 4 and P[P(tBu)₂]₂P(SiMe₃)₂ 5 , whereas 1 with LiPMe₂ 2 yields P₂Me₄ 6 and P[(tBu)₂]₂PMe₂ 7 . 1 with LiMe yields the ylid tBu₂P? P?P(Me)tBu₂ (main product) and [tBu₂P]₂PMe 15 . In the reaction of 1 with tBuLi [tBu₂P]₂PH 11 is the main product and also tBuP? P?P(R)tBu₂ 21 is formed. The reaction of 1 with nBuLi leads to [tBu₂P]₂PnBu 17 (main product) and tBu₂P? P?P(nBu)tBu₂ 22 (secondary product).
