CSi bond cleavage of trihalomethyltrimethylsilane by alkoxo- and aryloxogold or -copper complexes
摘要:
The C-Si bond cleavage of trihalomethyltrimethylsilane Me3SiCX3 (X= F, Cl) proceeds smoothly by alkoxo- and aryloxogold(I or III) or -copper(I) complexes Au(OR)L (OR = OCH(CF3)(2), OPh), L = PCy3, PPh3, PMe2Ph, PMe3), cis-AuMe2(OPh)L (L = PMePh2, PEt3, PMe2Ph, PMe3), Cu(OR)(PPh3)(3) (OR = OCH(CF3)(2), OPh) to give trihalomethylgold or -copper complexes Au(CX3)L, cis-AuMe2(CF3)L, or Cu(CF3)L-3 with liberation of the corresponding silyl ether Me3SiOR.
