Abstract:
Alkaline earth metal iodides were used as templates for the synthesis of novel silicon‐based ligands. Siloxane moieties were (cross‐)coupled and ion‐specific, silicon‐rich crown ether analogues were obtained. The reaction of 1,2,7,8‐tetrasila[12] crown‐4 ( I ) and 1,2‐disila[9]crown‐3 ( II ) with MgI 2 yielded exclusively [Mg(1,2,7,8‐tetrasila[12]crown‐4)I 2 ] ( 1 ). The larger Ca 2+ ion was then employed for cross‐coupling of I and II and yielded the complex [Ca(1,2,7,8‐tetrasila[15]crown‐5)I 2 ] ( 2 ). Cross‐coupling of I and 1,2,4,5‐tetrasila[9]crown‐3 ( III ) with SrI 2 enables the synthesis of the silicon‐dominant 1,2,4,5,10,11‐hexasila[15]crown‐5 ether complex of SrI 2 ( 3 ). Further, the compounds [Sr(1,2,10,11‐tetrasila[18]crown‐6)I 2 ] ( 4 ), [Sr(1,2,13,14‐tetrasila[24]crown‐8)I 2 ] ( 5 ), and [Sr(1,2,13,14‐tetrasila‐dibenzo[24]crown‐8)I 2 ] ( 6 ) were obtained by coupling I , 1,2‐disila[12]crown‐4 ( IV ) or 1,2‐disila‐benzo[12]crown‐4 ( V ), respectively. Using various anions, the (cross‐)coupled ligands were also observed in an X‐ray structure within the mentioned complexes. These template‐assisted (cross‐)couplings of various ligands are the first of their kind and a novel method to obtain macrocycles and/or their metal complexes to be established. Further, the Si−O bond activations presented herein might be of importance for silane or even organic functionalization.
