Abstract: | Synthesis of “Inorganic” Pode-type Molecules. II The reaction of the amino compounds MeyB? NMe2 (B ? As, y ? 2; B ? Si, y ? 3) with 1, n-dioles results in the formation of the compounds HO(CH2)nOBMey. These compounds can be used as the arms of pode-type molecules MexA[? O(CH2)nOBMey]z with A ? Si, As. The influence of A, B, n, and z in the rearrangement of these molecules is examined. A second type of pode molecules can be prepared by the reaction of Me2As? R? OH (R ? CH2CH2, CH2CH2(OCH2CH2)2) with the amino compounds Mex(NMe2)z (A ? As, Si). These reactions result in the formation of molecules as MexA(ORAsMe2)z. |
