    The reaction of SiX<sub>4</sub> (X = Cl or Br) with PMe<sub>3</sub> in anhydrous CH<sub>2</sub>Cl<sub>2</sub> forms <i>trans</i>-[SiX<sub>4</sub>(PMe<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>], while the diphosphines, Me<sub>2</sub>P­(CH<sub>2</sub>)<sub>2</sub>PMe<sub>2</sub>, Et<sub>2</sub>P­(CH<sub>2</sub>)<sub>2</sub>PEt<sub>2</sub>, and <i>o</i>-C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>4</sub>(PMe<sub>2</sub>)<sub>2</sub> form <i>cis</i>-[SiX<sub>4</sub>(diphosphine)], all containing six-coordinate silicon centers. With Me<sub>2</sub>PCH<sub>2</sub>PMe<sub>2</sub> the product was <i>trans</i>-[SiCl<sub>4</sub>(κ<sup>1</sup>-Me<sub>2</sub>PCH<sub>2</sub>PMe<sub>2</sub>)<sub>2</sub>]. The complexes have been characterized by X-ray crystallography, microanalysis, IR, and multinuclear (<sup>1</sup>H, <sup>13</sup>C­{<sup>1</sup>H}, and <sup>31</sup>P­{<sup>1</sup>H}) NMR spectroscopies. The complexes are stable solids and not significantly dissociated in nondonor solvents, although they are very moisture and oxygen sensitive. This stability conflicts with the predictions of recent density functional theory (DFT) calculations (Wilson et al.<i> Inorg. Chem</i>. <b>2012</b>, <i>51</i>, 7657–7668) which suggested six-coordinate silicon phosphines would be unstable, and also contrasts with the failure to isolate complexes with SiF<sub>4</sub> (George et al.<i> Dalton Trans</i>. <b>2011</b>, <i>40,</i> 1584–1593). No reaction occurred between phosphines and SiI<sub>4</sub>, or with SiX<sub>4</sub> and arsine ligands including AsMe<sub>3</sub> and <i>o</i>-C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>4</sub>(AsMe<sub>2</sub>)<sub>2</sub>. Attempts to make five-coordinate [SiX<sub>4</sub>(PR<sub>3</sub>)] using the sterically bulky phosphines, P<sup>t</sup>Bu<sub>3</sub>, P<sup>i</sup>Pr<sub>3</sub>, or PCy<sub>3</sub> failed, with no apparent reaction occurring, consistent with predictions (Wilson et al. <i>Inorg. Chem</i>. <b>2012</b>, <i>51</i>, 7657–7668) that such compounds would be very endothermic, while the large cone angles of the phosphines presumably preclude formation of six-coordination at the small silicon center. The reaction of Si<sub>2</sub>Cl<sub>6</sub> with PMe<sub>3</sub> or the diphosphines in CH<sub>2</sub>Cl<sub>2</sub> results in instant disproportionation to the SiCl<sub>4</sub> adducts and polychlorosilanes, but from hexane solution very unstable white [Si<sub>2</sub>Cl<sub>6</sub>(PMe<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>] and [Si<sub>2</sub>Cl<sub>6</sub>(diphosphine)] (diphosphine = Me<sub>2</sub>P­(CH<sub>2</sub>)<sub>2</sub>PMe<sub>2</sub> or <i>o</i>-C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>4</sub>(PMe<sub>2</sub>)<sub>2</sub>) precipitate. The reactions of SiHCl<sub>3</sub> with PMe<sub>3</sub> and Me<sub>2</sub>P­(CH<sub>2</sub>)<sub>2</sub>PMe<sub>2</sub> also produce the SiCl<sub>4</sub> adducts, but using Et<sub>2</sub>P­(CH<sub>2</sub>)<sub>2</sub>PEt<sub>2</sub>, colorless [SiHCl<sub>3</sub>{Et<sub>2</sub>P­(CH<sub>2</sub>)<sub>2</sub>PEt<sub>2</sub>}] was isolated, which was characterized by an X-ray structure which showed a pseudo-octahedral complex with the Si–H <i>trans</i> to P. Attempts to reduce the silicon­(IV) phosphine complexes to silicon­(II) were unsuccessful, contrasting with the isolation of stable N-heterocyclic carbene adducts of Si­(II)

    Bis­(β-ketoimine) ligands, [R­{N­(H)­C­(Me)-CHC­(Me)O}<sub>2</sub>] (<b>L</b><sub><b>1</b></sub><b>H</b><sub><b>2</b></sub>, R = (CH<sub>2</sub>)<sub>2</sub>; <b>L</b><sub><b>2</b></sub><b>H</b><sub><b>2</b></sub>, R = (CH<sub>2</sub>)<sub>3</sub>), linked by ethylene (<b>L</b><sub><b>1</b></sub>) and propylene (<b>L</b><sub><b>2</b></sub>) bridges have been used to form aluminum, gallium, and indium chloride complexes [Al­(L<sub>1</sub>)­Cl] (<b>3</b>), [Ga­(L<sub><i>n</i></sub>)­Cl] (<b>4</b>, <i>n</i> = 1; <b>6</b>, <i>n</i> = 2) and [In­(L<sub><i>n</i></sub>)­Cl] (<b>5</b>, <i>n</i> = 1; <b>7</b>, <i>n</i> = 2). Ligand <b>L</b><sub><b>1</b></sub> has also been used to form a gallium hydride derivative [Ga­(L<sub>1</sub>)­H] (<b>8</b>), but indium analogues could not be made. β-ketoimine ligands, [Me<sub>2</sub>N­(CH<sub>2</sub>)<sub>3</sub>N­(H)­C­(R′)-CHC­(R′)O] (<b>L</b><sub><b>3</b></sub><b>H</b>, R′ = Me; <b>L</b><sub><b>4</b></sub><b>H</b>, R′ = Ph), with a donor-functionalized Lewis base have also been synthesized and used to form gallium and indium alkyl complexes, [Ga­(L<sub>3</sub>)­Me<sub>2</sub>] (<b>9</b>) and [In­(L<sub>3</sub>)­Me<sub>2</sub>] (<b>10</b>), which were isolated as oils. The related gallium hydride complexes, [Ga­(L<sub><i>n</i></sub>)­H<sub>2</sub>] (<b>11</b>, <i>n</i> = 3; <b>12</b>, <i>n</i> = 4), were also prepared, but again no indium hydride species could be made. The complexes were characterized mainly by NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and single crystal X-ray diffraction. The β-ketoiminate gallium hydride compounds (<b>8</b> and <b>11</b>) have been used as single-source precursors for the deposition of Ga<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> by aerosol-assisted (AA)­CVD with toluene as the solvent. The quality of the films varied according to the precursor used, with the complex [Ga­(L<sub>1</sub>)­H] (<b>8</b>) giving by far the best quality films. Although the films were amorphous as deposited, they could be annealed at 1000 °C to form crystalline Ga<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>. The films were analyzed by powder XRD, SEM, and EDX

    Tetramethyl Orthosilicate (TMOS) as a Reagent for Direct Amidation of Carboxylic Acids

    No full text
    Tetramethyl orthosilicate (TMOS) is shown to be an effective reagent for direct amidation of aliphatic and aromatic carboxylic acids with amines and anilines. The amide products are obtained in good to quantitative yields in pure form directly after workup without the need for any further purification. A silyl ester as the putative activated intermediate is observed by NMR methods. Amidations on a 1 mol scale are demonstrated with a favorable process mass intensity

    Unprecedented homoleptic octathioether macrocyclic coordination to Na<sup>+</sup> in [Na([24]­aneS<sub>8</sub>)]<sup>+</sup> has been achieved by using Na­[B­{3,5-(CF<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>-C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>3</sub>}<sub>4</sub>] as a source of “naked” Na<sup>+</sup> ions and confirmed crystallographically, with <i>d</i>(Na–S) = 2.9561(15)–3.0524(15) Å. Density functional theory calculations show that there is electron transfer from the S 3p and C 2p valence orbitals of the ligand to the 3s and 3p orbitals of the Na<sup>+</sup> ion upon complexation

    Metal–Organic Frameworks Constructed from Group 1 Metals (Li, Na) and Silicon-Centered Linkers

    No full text
    A series of “light metal” metal–organic frameworks containing secondary building units (SBUs) based on Li<sup>+</sup> and Na<sup>+</sup> cations have been prepared using the silicon-centered linkers Me<sub><i>x</i></sub>Si­(<i>p</i>-C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>4</sub>CO<sub>2</sub>H)<sub>4‑<i>x</i></sub> (<i>x</i> = 2, 1, 0). The unipositive charge, small size, and oxophilic nature of the metal cations give rise to some unusual and unique SBUs, including a three-dimensional nodal structure built from sodium and oxygen ions when using the triacid linker (<i>x</i> = 1). The same linker with Li<sup>+</sup> cations generated a chiral, helical SBU, formed from achiral starting materials. One-dimensional rod SBUs are observed for the diacid (<i>x</i> = 2) and tetra-acid (<i>x</i> = 0) linkers with both Li<sup>+</sup> and Na<sup>+</sup> cations, where the larger size of Na<sup>+</sup> compared to Li<sup>+</sup> leads to subtle differences in the constitution of the metal nodes
