Article Abstract
[reaction: see text] The titanium-methylene complexes derived from the TiCl(4)-Mg-CH(2)Cl(2) system serve as a novel class of ambiphilic carbenoid equivalents, which not only efficiently effect cyclopropanations of a variety amides but also exhibit high chemoselectivity.

A Tin Analogue of Carbenoid: Isolation and Reactivity of a Lithium Bis(imidazolin-2-imino)stannylenoid.

The lithium bis(imino)stannylenoid (NIPr)2 Sn(Li)Cl (1; NIPr=bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazolin-2-imino) was prepared by the reaction of LiNIPr with 0.5 equiv of SnCl2 ⋅diox (diox=1,4-dioxane) and the ambiphilic character of the compound was demonstrated by investigations into its reactivity. Treatment of 1 with I2 or MeI yielded the oxidative addition products (NIPr)2 SnI2 and (NIPr)2 Sn(Me)I, respectively.

Lithium carbenoids are versatile compounds for synthesis owing to their intriguing ambiphilic behavior. Although this class of compounds has been known for several years, few solid-state structures exist because of their high reactivity and often low thermal stability. Using cryo X-ray techniques, we were now able to elucidate the first solid-state structure of a Li/F alkyl carbenoid, pentafluoroethyllithium (LiC2F5), finally yielding a prototype for investigating structure-reactivity relationships for this class of molecules.

An α-chloro lithium base stabilised by a sulfonyl and thiophosphinoyl moiety was selectively prepared by lithiation of its protonated precursor and oxidation of the corresponding dilithio methandiide. The carbenoid-like compound was found to be remarkably stable even at room temperature and thus allowed for its spectroscopic characterisation in solution and in the solid state. Its ambiphilic nature was tested and compared with typical carbenoids both experimentally and by computational methods.
