(N,N,N′,N′ -tetramethylethylendiamine) di(tert-butyl)aluminium Cations — Molecular Structure of [(Me₃C)₂Al(TMEDA)]^⊕[(Me₃C)₂AlBr₂]^? Dimeric di(tert-butyl)aluminium halides (Me₃C)₂AlX (X = Cl, Br) react with N,N,N′,N′ -tetramethylethylendiamine (TMEDA) to give three compounds: the salt-like [(Me₃C)₂Al(TMEDA)]^⊕[(Me₃C)₂AlX₂]^? 1 , characterized by crystal structure determination, and [(Me₃C)₂Al(TMEDA)]^⊕X^? 3 both with chelating amine, and the more covalent, pentane soluble (Me₃C)₂AlX(TMEDA) 2 with TMEDA bound by only one nitrogen atom. The reaction resembles the symmetrical and unsymmetrical cleavage of diborane(6). 3 (X = Cl) is also formed by treatment of 1 with boiling n-hexane in the presence of TMEDA over a period of 24 hours, while for X = Br the more covalent 2 is the main product under similar conditions. In solution 2 decomposes slowly yielding different products in dependency of the solvent: in benzene 3 and in n-pentane 1 are formed.     

Darstellung,Charakterisierung und Reaktionsverhalten von Natrium‐ und Kaliumhydridosilylamiden R2(H)Si—N(M)R′ (M = Na,K) — Kristallstruktur von [(Me3C)2(H)Si—N(K)SiMe3]2·THF

Preparation, Characterization and Reaction Behaviour of Sodium and Potassium Hydridosilylamides R₂(H)Si—N(M)R′ (M = Na, K) — Crystal Structure of [(Me₃C)₂(H)Si—N(K)SiMe₃]₂ · THF The alkali metal hydridosilylamides R₂(H)Si—N(M)R′ 1a‐Na — 1d—Na and 1a‐K — 1d‐K ( a : R = Me, R′ = CMe₃; b : R = Me, R′ = SiMe₃; c : R = Me, R′ = Si(H)Me₂; d : R = CMe₃, R′= SiMe₃) have been prepared by reaction of the corresponding hydridosilylamines 1a — 1d with alkali metal M (M = Na, K) in presence of styrene or with alkali metal hydrides MH (M = Na, K). With NaNH₂ in toluene Me₂(H)Si—NHCMe₃ ( 1a ) reacted not under metalation but under nucleophilic substitution of the H(Si) atom to give Me₂(NaNH)Si—NHCMe₃ ( 5 ). In the reaction of Me₂(H)Si—NHSiMe₃ ( 1b ) with NaNH₂ intoluene a mixture of Me₂(NaNH)Si—NHSiMe₃ and Me₂(H)Si—N(Na)SiMe₃ ( 1b‐Na ) was obtained. The hydridosilylamides have been characterized spectroscopically. The spectroscopic data of these amides and of the corresponding lithium derivatives are discussed. The ²⁹Si‐NMR‐chemical shifts and the ²⁹Si—¹H coupling constants of homologous alkali metal hydridosilylamides R₂(H)Si—N(M)R′ (M = Li, Na, K) are depending on the alkali metal. With increasing of the ionic character of the M—N bond M = K > Na > Li the ²⁹Si‐NMR‐signals are shifted upfield and the ²⁹Si—¹H coupling constants except for compounds (Me₃C)(H)Si—N(M)SiMe₃ are decreased. The reaction behaviour of the amides 1a‐Na — 1c‐Na and 1a‐K — 1c‐K was investigated toward chlorotrimethylsilane in tetrahydrofuran (THF) and in n‐pentane. In THF the amides produced just like the analogous lithium amides the corresponding N‐silylation products Me₂(H)Si—N(SiMe₃)R′ ( 2a — 2c ) in high yields. The reaction of the sodium amides with chlorotrimethylsilane in nonpolar solvent n‐pentane produced from 1a‐Na the cyclodisilazane [Me₂Si—NCMe₃]₂ ( 8a ), from 1b‐Na and 1‐Na mixtures of cyclodisilazane [Me₂Si—NR′]₂ ( 8b , 8c ) and N‐silylation product 2b , 2c . In contrast to 1b‐Na and 1c‐Na and to the analogous lithium amides the reaction of 1b‐K and 1c‐K with chlorotrimethylsilane afforded the N‐silylation products Me₂(H)Si—N(SiMe₃)R′ ( 2b , 2c ) in high yields. The amide [(Me₃C)₂(H)Si—N(K)SiMe₃]₂·THF ( 9 ) crystallizes in the space group C2/c with Z = 4. The central part of the molecule is a planar four‐membered K₂N₂ ring. One potassium atom is coordinated by two nitrogen atoms and the other one by two nitrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. Furthermore K···H(Si) and K···CH₃ contacts exist in 9 . The K—N distances in the K₂N₂ ring differ marginally.

The selenocyanato complex 2b , homologous to 2a , could also be prepared. Single crystal X‐ray structure determinations show, that the Ag⁺ ions in 1 and 2a are coordinated tetrahedrally by four S atoms, in 3 by one N and three S atoms of the bridging SCN^? ligands; six N atoms of the SCN^? or SeCN^? ligands bind to Fe²⁺ in an octahedral arrangement.

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.

With NOBF₄ the anion of 1 can be oxydized to form the molecular complex [{(Me₃Si)₂N}₂TiCH₂SiMe₂NSiMe₃] ( 5 ), while with phenylacetylene redox disproportionation occurs, in the course of which the mixed ligand complex [Na(12-crown-4)₂][{(Me₃Si)₂N}₂Ti(NSiMe₃)(CH₂SiMe₂C≡C–Ph)] ( 6 ) can be isolated. 6 and the insertion products [Na(12-crown-4)₂][{(Me₃Si)₂N}₂TiOC(CH₂)SiMe₂NSiMe₃] ( 2 ) and [Na(12-crown-4)₂][{(Me₃Si)₂N}₂TiNCyC(CH₂)SiMe₂NSiMe₃] ( 3 ) are characterized by crystal structure determinations.

On Dimethyldiphenylammoniumpolyiodides (Me₂Ph₂N)I_n with n = 3, 13/3, 6, and 8: Preparation and Crystal Structures of a Triiodide (Me₂Ph₂N)I₃, Tridecaiodide (Me₂Ph₂N)₃I₁₃, Dodecaiodide (Me₂Ph₂N)₂I₁₂, and Hexadecaiodide (Me₂Ph₂N)₂I₁₆ The new compounds [(CH₃)₂(C₆H₅)₂N]I₃, [(CH₃)₂(C₆H₅)₂N]₃I₁₃, [(CH₃)₂(C₆H₅)₂N]₂I₁₂ and [(CH₃)₂(C₆H₅)₂N]₂I₁₆ have been prepared by the reaction of dimethyldiphenylammonium iodide [(CH₃)₂(C₆H₅)₂N]I with iodine I₂ in ethanol. Their crystal structures have been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The structure of the triiodide may be described as a layerlike packing of pairs of nearly linear symmetric anions and tetraedral cations. The tridecaiodide forms zig-zag chains of iodide ions and iodine molecules with the iodide ion also weakly coordinated by two pentaiodide groups. The dodecaiodide is built from two pentaiodide-groups, which are bridged by an iodine molecule and connected with secondary bonds forming double chains. The hexadecaiodide ion forms layers built up from two heptaiodide groups and one iodine molecule. Thus the dimethyldiphenylammonium cation stabilizes a unique series of polyiodides of extraordinary composition and structure.

Polysulfonylamines. CXVI. Destructive Complexation of the Dimeric Diorganyltin(IV) Hydroxide [Me₂Sn(A)(μ‐OH)]₂ (HA = Benzene‐1,2‐disulfonimide): Formation and Structures of the Mononuclear Complexes [Me₂Sn(A)₂(OPPh₃)₂] and [Me₂Sn(phen)₂]^2⊕ · 2 A^⊖ · MeCN Destructive complexation of the dimeric hydroxide [Me₂Sn(A)(μ‐OH)]₂, where A^⊖ is deprotonated benzene‐1,2‐disulfonimide, with two equivalents of triphenylphosphine oxide or 1,10‐phenanthroline in hot MeCN produced, along with Me₂SnO and water, the novel coordination compounds [Me₂Sn(A)₂(OPPh₃)₂] ( 3 , triclinic, space group P 1) and [Me₂Sn(phen)₂]^2⊕ · 2 A^⊖ · MeCN ( 4 , monoclinic, P2₁/c). In the uncharged all‐trans octahedral complex 3 , the heteroligands are unidentally O‐bonded to the tin atom, which resides on a crystallographic centre of inversion [Sn–O(S) 227.4(2), Sn–O(P) 219.6(2) pm, cis‐angles in the range 87–93°; anionic ligand partially disordered over two equally populated sites for N, two S and non‐coordinating O atoms]. The cation occurring in the crystal of 4 has a severely distorted cis‐octahedral C₂N₄ coordination geometry around tin and represents the first authenticated example of a dicationic tin(IV) dichelate [R₂Sn(L–L′)₂]^2⊕ to adopt a cis‐structure [C–Sn–C 108.44(11)°]. The five‐membered chelate rings are nearly planar, with similar bite angles of the bidentate ligands, but unsymmetric Sn–N bond lengths, each of the longer bonds being trans to a methyl group [ring 1: N–Sn–N 71.24(7)°, Sn–N 226.81(19) and 237.5(2) pm; ring 2: 71.63(7)°, 228.0(2) and 232.20(19) pm]. In both structures, the bicyclic and effectively C_S symmetric A^⊖ ions have their five‐membered rings distorted into an envelope conformation, with N atoms displaced by 28–43 pm from the corresponding C₆S₂ mean plane.     

Crystal structure of potassium tetramethylammonium hexacyanocobaltate(III) trihydrate: K3(Me4N)3[Co(CN)6]2·3H2O

The structure of K₃(Me₄N)₃[Co(CN)₆]₂·3H₂O has been determined from three-dimensional X-ray diffraction data. The unit cell is formed by parallel layers of cobalt octahedra [CoC₆] and potassium octahedra, [K(1)N₅O(1)], separated byc/2. In each layer both types of octahedra are located alternatively. The [MeN₄]⁺ tetrahedra are located in the cavities between the two layers of octahedra. The crystal structure of this compound is the first example of its type. TMC 2483
