Published: January 2023

This work describes a straightforward method to synthesize a borylborylene without proceeding via the rearrangement of a diborene. An amidinato amidosilylene [LSiNMe] (L = PhC(NBu)) and PMe were reacted with an -phosphinoamidinato diborane and KC to form a stable silylene-borylborylene and a persistent phosphine-borylborylene , respectively. Compound is stable as the borylene center is well stabilized by the silylene donor and boryl substituent, whereas compound is unstable in solution due to labile PMe. The latter was illustrated by reacting compound with Ar'NC (Ar' = 2,6-MeCH), where Ar'NC displaced PMe and inserted into the -phosphinoamidinate ligand and B-B bond to form compound .

The Insertion of E and E Chlorides (E=Si, Ge) into the Si-Si Bond of Disilylene.

Reactions of silicon and germanium dichlorides L⋅ECl (E=Si, L=IPr; E=Ge, L=dioxane) with the phosphinoamidinato-supported disilylene ({κ (N,P)-NNP}Si) resulted in formal tetrylene insertions into the Si-Si bond. In the case of the reaction with silylene, two products were isolated. The first product ({κ (N,P)-NNP}Si) SiCl , is the formal product of direct SiCl insertion into the Si-Si bond of ({κ (N,P)-NNP}Si) and thus features two separated silylamido silylene centers.
