Abstract: | The reactions of CCl4, CHCl3, and CH2Cl2 with trimethylstannylsodium in tetraglyme have been examined. Tetrakis[trimethylst?annyl]methane can be obtained by reaction with CCl4 in yields of about 40%. Among other products which have been characterized in varying degree are the following: trichloromethyltrimethylstannane, bis[trimethylstannyl]dichloromethane, tris[trimethylstannyl]methane, and hexamethyldistannane, The first step in the reaction leads to the formation of the trichloromethyl anion, and dichlorocarbene has been trapped with 2,3- dimethyl-2-butene. Dichlorobis[trimethylstannyl]methane reacts with Me3SnNa to form tetrakis[trimethylstannyl]methane in 85% yield. When the reaction was carried out in the presence of -butyl alcohol the only product formed was bis[trimethylstannyl]methane, indicating carbanionic intermediates. Chloroform yields tetrakis[trimethylstannyl]methane and bis[trimethylstannyl]methane, but no detectable tris[trimethylstannylmethane. Trapping experiemtns with 3-pentanol and 2,3-dimethyl-2-butene indicate the intermediacy of dichloromethyl anion and of dichlorocarbene. Methylene chloride yields bis[trimethylstannyl]methane. No intermediates could be trapped by added alcohol. |
