Abstract
(2,4,6-triisopropylphenyl)(fluorenylidene)stannane (1) reacts nearly q uantitatively with compounds having active hydrogen atoms (alcohols, a mines, mineral acids, phenylacetylene) and with lithium aluminium hydr ide to give the corresponding stannanes. Methyl iodide also adds easil y to the tin-carbon double bond. Compound 1 slowly dimerizes at room t emperature in solution. The head-to-tail dimer 10 has been structurall y characterized by X-ray analysis which reveals long intracyclic Sn-C bonds (2.288(4) to 2.293(5) angstrom) and a planar four-membered ring.
