Abstract

Reactivity and side products of reactions of diorganodihydridostannanes (R2SnH2, R = Me, nBu, tBu)) with various alkali metal compounds have been discussed. Alternatively, the synthesis and characterization of a family of novel potassium stannides are described as well. The compounds of type (RR’2Si)R”2SnK (R, R’= Me, Ph; R”= , Me, tBu, Ph) 4 - 9 were synthesized by reaction of potassium hydride with bis(silyl)stannides ((RR’2Si)2SnR”2). All compounds were characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy. In addition, the tri-tert-butyltin compound 3 (LiSntBu3) and the unsymmetrical silyl substituted stannane 10 were characterized by X-ray crystallography.
