Halogenodisilanes: precursors for new disilane derivatives.
Starting from hexachloro- or hexabromodisilane a wide variety of 1,2-disubstituted tetrachlorodisilanes (RSiCl2SiCl2R) [R = Cp (2a), 4-iPrC6H4(SiMe3)N (2b), 2,6-iPr2C6H3(SiMe3)N (2c), (Me3Si)2CH (2d) (Me3Si)3C (2e), (Me3Si)3Si (2f)], tetrabromodisilanes (RSiBr2SiBr2R) [R = Cp (3a), 4-iPrC6H4(SiMe3)N (3b), (Me3Si)3Si (3f)] and the monosubstituted pentahalogenodisilanes CpSiX2SiX3 [X = Cl (4), Br (5)] were prepared. The tetrachlorodisilanes 2a-e are converted to various functionalized disilanes. Ammonolysis of 2a-e leads to the tetraaminodisilanes [RSi(NH2)2Si(NH2)2R] 6a-e. A reduction of 2d with LiAlH4 resulted in the formation of the disilane RSiH2SiH2R [R = (Me3Si)2CH] 7 and the metathesis with Me3SnF yielded the tetrafluorodisilane RSiF2SiF2R [R = (Me3Si)2CH] 8. Treatment of 6d with reagents containing H acidic protons (HX) [X = Br, I and OH] leads under elimination of NH3 to the tetrabromo- R2SiBr2SiBr2R (3d) tetraiodo- RSiI2SiI2R (9) and the tetrahydroxodisilane RSi(OH)2Si(OH)2R (10) [R = (Me3Si)2CH]. Single-crystal X-ray structural analysis of 2d, 6a, 6d, and 9 are reported.
