Chloromethoxysilanes as Protecting Reagents for Sterically Hindered Alcohols.

Extremely bulky secondary phosphinoamines as substituents for sterically hindered aminosilanes.

The synthesis of a series of extremely bulky secondary amines with a phosphine function, Ar(†)(PR2)NH (Ar(†) = C6H2{C(H)Ph2}2Pr(i)-2,6,4; R = Ph, NEt2, NPr(i)2) is described. Deprotonation with either n-BuLi or KH yields the respective alkali metal amides in some cases. Their reaction with the chlorosilanes SiCl4, HSiCl3, Cl2SiPh2, Cl3Si-SiCl3 and Si5Cl10 allows access to monomeric molecular co...

Sterically Hindered Diaryl Benzobis(thiadiazole)s as Effective Photochromic Switches.

Some highly sterically hindered organosilicon compounds

The chemistry of organometallic compounds with bulky ligands such as (Me3Si)3C(Tsi) or (Me2PhSI)3C(Tpsi) attached to a variety of metal centres is reviewed. The compounds Tsi2M (M = Zn, Cd, Hg) and the rare two co-ordinate TsiMn show exceptional thermal and hydrolytic stability. The corresponding alkylmetal halides form ring or cage structures. In a range of new boron compounds the structures o...

Practical catalytic method for synthesis of sterically hindered anilines.

A practical catalytic method for the synthesis of sterically hindered anilines is described. The amination of aryl and heteroaryl boronic esters is accomplished using a catalyst prepared in situ from commercially available and air-stable copper(i) triflate and diphosphine ligand. For the first time, the method can be applied to the synthesis of both secondary and tertiary anilines in the presen...
