The following crystalline complexes are reported: [(M{μ‐N(SiMe2Ph)(SiMe3)})2]n [the cis complex for n = 1 and M = Li (1); and the trans complexes with n = ∞ and M = Na (2), K (4), Rb (5), Cs (6)], [(Na{μ‐trans‐N(SiMe2Ph)(SiMe3)})2(tmeda)] (3), [(K{μ‐trans‐N(tBu)(SiMe3)})4(η‐C6H6)2] (7), [(K{μ‐trans‐N(Ph)(2‐C5H4N)})2(μ′‐thf)3]∞ (8), and [K{μ‐N(2‐C5H4N)2}]∞ (9). Each, except 3, was obtained by metallation of the appropriate secondary amine with LinBu (for 1), MBzl [M = Na (for 2), K (for 4 and 7), Rb (for 5), Cs (for 6)], or KH (for 8 and 9); treatment of 2 with an excess of tmeda yielded 3. Each of 1−9 has an unusual, and in some cases unprecedented, molecular structure. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2003)
