A Stable Magnesium Bromosilylenoid: Transmetalation of a Lithium Bromosilylenoid by Magnesium Bromide

Abstract: The reaction of lithium bromosilylenoid with MesLi at -10 °C followed by addition of MgBr 2 gave lithium mesitylsilylenoid as a complex with magnesium bromide that was transmetalated by MgBr 2 at 45 °C in THF to give magnesium silylenoid as a weak MgBr 2 complex of trisylmesitylsilylene. A new magnesium mesitylsilylenoid species was stable at reflux temperature in THF and n-hexane and showed amphiphilic properties in the reaction with 2-propanol, water, and n BuLi, respectively.

“…Instead, the dibromo-bisthiolato Si(IV) Si NMR spectrum. 30 The upfield shift of SiBr(MgBr)(SAr Me 6 )2 is probably due to the more electronegative thiolate substituents. The silylenoid is likely an intermediate in the synthesis of silylenes 2 and 3; however, in those systems, the MgBr2 is apparently eliminated, possibly due to increased steric crowding of the bulkier ligands (Supporting Information).…”

“…In 1996, Ohtaki and Ando described the synthesis of at risyl-substituted chlorogermylenoid (Figure 1, IV;T si = (Me 3 Si) 3 C), [6] however,t he molecular structure of this compound in the solid state was not reported. [8] In contrast, the field of heavier Group 14 congeners (containing Sn or Pb) remains largely unexplored mainly as aresult of the increased stability of the divalent Sn II and Pb II atoms in comparison to the lighter elements. [7] In this context, reactivity studies on silylenoids by Lee and co-workers have to be pointed out.…”

“…On the other hand, since Clark et al [37] studied the isomers of lithoflurosilylenoid H 2 SiLiF theoretically using ab initio calculations for the first time in 1980, many silylenoids such as R 1 R 2 SiMX (R 1 , R 2 =H, F, OH, NH 2 , Me, Et; M=Li, Na, K, Be, Mg, etc. ; X=F, Cl, Br) [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21] have been investigated by quantum chemistry methods. Such theoretical studies show that R 1 R 2 SiMX has four possible structures (see Scheme 1): a p-complex (I), a three-membered-ring (ii), an σ-complex (iii), and a 'classical' tetrahedral (iv).…”
