摘要
Vinylidene and its heavier analogues are fundamentally important in synthetic chemistry,but their stabilization and structural characterization remains extremely challenging.Herein we describe that the reduction of an NHSi-stabilized stannyl-stannylene(2)with one molar equivalent of[(^(Mes)Nacnac)Mg]_(2)affords an NHSi-stabilized distannavinylidene(3).Single-crystal X-ray crystallography and density functional theory(DFT)calculations show that compound 3 features a pronounced Sn=Sn double bond and one lone pair of electrons at the two-coordinate Sn atom.Most strikingly,3 undergoes an interconversion with distannyne(4)upon the addition and removal of one molar equivalent of N-heterocyclic carbene.Compound 3 readily reacts with Ph_(2)C=C=O,Ad C≡P and(Al Cp^(*))_(4)to give the structurally interesting stannacycles(5,6)and an aluminyl distannyne(7),demonstrating its unique reactivity derived from the high substituent lability.
