Abstract
The reaction of MCHR(2) with ArCN yielded [M(L'L')](2)[R = SiMe(3); M = Li and L'L' = N(R)C(Ar)C(H)C(Ar)NR (Ar = Ph 1a or C(6)H(4)Me-4 1b), or M = K and Ar = Ph 1c]; 1a or 1c was converted into CH2(L'L'-C,C)(2) 2a, L'L'H 2c and SnCl(Me)(2)(L'L') 3a by treatment with CH2Br2, (CH2B r)(2) or H2O, and SnCl(2)Me(2) or SnClMe(3), respectively; and 3a upon hydrolysis gave ShCl(Me)(2)(LL) 3b [LL = N(H)C(Ph)C(H)C(Ph)NH], X-ray data being provided for 1a, 3a and 3b.
