Abstract

The synthesis and characterisation of the Group IVB organometallic diazomethanes is described. The compounds prepared were Me3Si·CHN2, (Me3M)2CN2(M = Ge, Sn, or Pb), Me3Si(Me3Sn)CN2, (Ph3Ge)2, and (R3Sn)2CN2(R = Et, Bun, or Ph). Two preparative methods have been explored: from diazomethane and the metal amide R3M·NMe2, and from diazomethyl-lithium and the appropriate chloride; their scope and limitation is discussed. The compounds are volatile, non-explosive, photosensitive, and reactive. Six Sn–C cleavage reactions of (Me3Sn)2CN2 are described; nitrogen is generally lost and the carbene (Me3Sn)2C: may be an intermediate.
