Upon addition of two mol equivalents lithium metal to the Si=P bond of
the silylidenephosphanes (''phosphasilenes'') Is(2)Si=P((SiPr3)-Pr-i)
and Is(2)Si=P(SiPh(2)Me) (Is=2,4,6(i)Pr(3)C(6)H(2)) in tetrahydrofura
ne, the corresponding lithiumsilanidyl-lithiumsilylphosphanides are fo
rmed, which have been isolated as pale yellow solids; each Li center i
s solvated by two tetrahydrofurane molecules. The constitution of thes
e compounds is established by multi nuclei NMR spectroscopy and deriva
tization reactions with water, deuteriumoxide, dichlorodimethylsilane,
and tert-butylmercuriochloride, respectively. The reaction with dichl
orodimethylsilane yields, via cyclocondensation reaction and eliminati
on of lithiumchloride, the first disilaphosphacyclopropane derivatives
, and the reaction with tert-butylmercuriochloride gives, under loss o
f the triorganosilyl group at phosphorus and via rearrangement process
es, an unusual P, P-dimercuriosilylphosphane; the latter reacts with t
ert-butyl-mercuriochloride and mercuriodichloride in the molar ratio o
f 2:1:1 to give an molecular aggregate bearing a P2Hg6Cl3 framework, w
hich can be regared as an Lewis-acid base complex of a mercuriophospha
ne chelate ligand and mercuriodichloride.
