Synthesis of cAAC stabilized biradical of “Me2Si” and “Me2SiCl” monoradical from Me2SiCl2 – an important feedstock material

Abstract

The cyclic alkyl(amino) carbene (cAAC) coordinated biradical of dimethylsilicon was isolated as (cAAC)2Me2Si (1), (cAAC = C(CH2)(CMe2)2N-2,6-i-Pr2C6H3), synthesized from the reduction of Me2SiCl2 using two equivalents of KC8 in the presence of two equivalents of cAAC. The reduction of Me2SiCl2 by one equivalent of KC8 in the presence of one equivalent of cAAC resulted in the stable dimethylsiliconchloride monoradical (cAAC)Me2SiCl (2).
