(last updated on 2026/01/22)Abstract:
The first example of an (formula omitted)-ring-containing compound, (formula omitted) (1), was prepared by the reaction of (Me3 SiCH2 )2 InCl and (Me3 Si)3 P in a 2:1 mole ratio. Similarly, the dimer containing an (formula omitted) core, [(Me3 SiCH2 )2 InP(SiMe3 )2 ]2 (2), was prepared by reaction in a 1:1 mole ratio. X-ray crystallographic analyses showed the (formula omitted) ring of 1 to be nonplanar while the (formula omitted)ring of 2 is planar. Compound 1 belongs to the triclinic system, space group (formula omitted) (Ci 1), with two molecules in a unit cell of dimensions o = 12.581 (1) Å,b = 19.470 (2) Å, c = 9.643 (1) Å, a = 89.75 (1)°, β = 112.91 (1)°, and γ = 100.68 (1)°. Compound 2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, space group Pbcn (D2h 14), with four molecules in a unit cell of dimensions a = 12.782 (2) Å,b = 21.482 (3) Å, and c = 18.651 (3) A. Compound 2 reacts with 2 equiv of (Me3 SiCH2 )2 InCl to yield 1 as a major product, as evidenced by 1H and 13C{1H} NMR and melting point data. © 1992, American Chemical Society. All rights reserved.
