Abstract:Oxidative addition reactions of the zinc hydride LZnH
(L = CH[C(Me)NAr]2, Ar = 2,6-iPr2C6H3) to silylenes L1Si (L1 = ArNC(=CH2)CHC(Me)NAr, Ar = 2,6-iPr2C6H3) and L2SiNMe2 (L2 = PhC(NtBu)2) yielded
L1Si(H)–ZnL
(1) and LH2Si(NMe2)ZnL (3), whereas the reaction with silylene L2SiCl (L2 = PhC(NtBu)2) proceeded with H/Cl ligand
exchange and the formation of the heterobimetallic complex L2Si(H)–Zn(Cl)L (2). Protonation reaction of 1 with H(OEt2)2BArF
4 (B{(3,5-CF3)2C6H3}4) gave the cationic congener LSi(H)–ZnL (4). T… Show more
Silylenes, divalent silicon(II) compounds, once considered highly reactive and transient species, are now widely employed as stable synthons in main-group and coordination chemistry for myriad applications. The synthesis of stable...

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
