Silyl-nitrogen compounds: Part VI-Reactions of lithium tris (trimethylsilyl)hydrazine with non- metallic halides

Abstract

Lithium tris (trimethylsilyl) hydrazine (Me₃Si)₂N-N(SiMe₃)Li (1) reacts with non-metallic halides EX_n to form bis tris (trimethylsilyl)hydrazino in derivatives [(Me₃Si)₃N₂]₂EX_n-2 where E=B, X=F. n=3; E=C, X=Br, n=4; E=Si, X=CI, n=4 and E=P, X=CI, n=5. Non-metallic monohydrazino derivatives (Me₃Si)₃ N₂EX_n-lare formed in cases of BF₃, Me₂SiCb, PCb, PBr₃, AsCl₃ and Et₂NAsCl₂.
