Abstract: | Dilithiated N,N′‐dimethyl‐piperazine, LiCH2N(CH2CH2)2 NCH2Li ( 2 ) was prepared by transmetallation of N,N′‐bis(trimethylstannylmethyl)‐piperazine ( 1 ) with nBuLi and was isolated as a highly pyrophoric yellowish powder in high yield. Compound 2 was characterized by elemental analysis and was reacted as difunctional aminomethylating reagent with dialkyl‐earth metal chlorides, R2MCl (M = Al, Ga; R = Me, tBu) which resulted in the formation of spirocyclic adducts of N,N′‐bis(dialkylmetallamethyl)‐piperazine and unreacted dialkylmetal chlorides, [(Me2AlCl)Me2AlCH2N(CH2CH2)2NCH2AlMe2(ClAlMe2)] ( 3 ) and [(tBu2GaCl)tBu2GaCH2N(CH2CH2)2NCH2GatBu2(ClGatBu2)] ( 4 ) with five‐membered rings. Compounds 1 , 3 and 4 were identified by NMR‐spectroscopy (1H, 13C, 119Sn for 1 , 27Al for 3 ), mass spectra (EI, for 1 ) and by crystal structure determinations. |
