Alternative Ligands. XXV. New Chelating Ligands of the Type Me₂ESiMe₂(CH₂)₂E′Me₂ (E=P, As; E′=N, P, As) Chelating ligands of the type Me₂EsiMe₂(CH₂)₂E′ Me₂, have been prepared by the following routes: Starting from Me₂Si(Vi)Cl, the compounds with E=N and E′ =N ( 1 ), P ( 2 ), As ( 3 ) are obtained in yields of 65 to 78% by aminolysis to yield Me₂NSiMe₂Vi, followed by the LiE′ Me₂ catalyzed addition of He′Me₂ to the vinyl group. The intermediates ClSiMe₂(CH₂)E′Me₂ E′=N ( 4 ), P ( 5 ), As ( 6 )] are produced by the reactions of 1 to 3 with PhPCl₂. 5 and 6 can be prepared in a purer form by the photochemical addition of HPMe₂ and HAsMe₂, respectively, to the vinyl group of Me₂Si(Vo)Cl. 4 to 6 react with LiEMe₂, in situ prepared from n-BuLi and HEMe₂, to yield the ligands Me₂ESiMe₂(CH₂)₂E′Me₂ ( 7–12 ) (E=P, As; E′=N, P, As). The new compounds have been characterized by analytical and spectroscopic investigations (NMR, MS).
