Abstract: | Lithium bis(trichlorosilyl)amide decomposes in the presence of silicon tetrachloride, tetrabromide, iodotrichloride or germanium tetrachloride, giving only decachloro-N,N′-bis(silyl)-cyclodi(silaz)ane. With iodosilane it reacts to bis(trichlorosilyl)-silyl-amine. With silicon tetrafluoride the product of reaction is bis(trichlorosilyl)-trifluorosilyl-amine. The latter compound rearranges already during its formation to give a nonseparable mixture with trichlorosilyl-dichlorosilyl-chlorodifluorosilyl-amine and tris(dichlorofluorosilyl)amine. |
