A model intermediate for the nucleophilic substitution of (Cp)2Sn; synthesis and structure of (Cp)(Me3Si)2NSn(µ-Cp)Li·pmdeta [Cp = C5H5, pmdeta =(Me2NCH2CH2)2NMe]
Abstract
Reaction of LiN(SiMe3)2 with Cp2Sn and pmdeta produces (Cp)(Me3Si)2NSn(µ,-Cp)Li·pmdeta 1 which can be viewed as a model intermediate for nucleophilic substitution of Cp2Sn.
