Products of Reactions of the in Situ Preparation of Dichlorocarbene With Diazagermylenes

Abstract

Dichlorocarbene generated in aprotic systems reacts with bis[(2,6-dimethylphenyl)trimethylsilylamino]germanium(ll) to give 2,3-dichloro-8-methyl-2-[(2,6-dimethy lphenyl)trimethylsily lamino]-1-trimethylsilyl-1-aza-2-germa-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene, 1, or chloro-bis[(2,6-dimethylphenyl)trimethylsilylamino]-trichloromethylgermanium(IV), 2, depending upon the preparation of the dichlorocarbene. From 1,3-bis(trimethylsilyl)-1,3-diaza-2-germa(ll)indane and dichlorocarbene, 2-[(tert.-butoxy)chloromethyi]-2-chloro-1,3-bis(trimethylsilyl)-1,3-diaza-2-germaindane, 3, and 2-bis(tert.butoxy)methyl-2-chloro-1,3-bis(trimethylsilyl)-1,3-diaza-2-germaindane, 4, were obtained. The compounds are characterized by 1 H-and 13 C-NMR and mass spectrometry, 1 and 3 also by elemental analyses. X-ray structure analyses were performed for 1 and 2.
