Abstract

An abnormal N-heterocyclic carbene (aNHC) has been used as a Lewis base to initiate dismutation of trichlorosilane. This report presents the reactivity differences of a normal N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) versus aNHC with heavier group 14 elements. Three novel compounds (NHC)2·SiCl2H2 (2), aNHC·SiCl2H2 (3), and aNHC·GeCl2 (4) have been synthesized and characterized by single crystal X-ray analysis, solid-state NMR and DFT calculations.
