Scheme 4. Suggested reaction mechanism of the GaCl3-assisted methyl/chlorine exchange in bis(trimethylsilyl)amino(dichloro)arsane (3), yielding cyclodisilazane<br />

(4) via release of Me2AsCl.<br />

Me 3Si–N 3 to give a tetrazarsole (m-terphenyl 6d = Ar # = 2,6-Mes 2-<br />

C 6H 3, Mes = 2,4,6-Me 3C 6H 2). 3 This at least was the idea which<br />

worked well for the analog phosphorus compo<strong>und</strong> but not for 5. 2f<br />

Upon adding a solution of GaCl 3 in CH 2Cl 2 to a solution of 5 in<br />

CH 2Cl 2 the formation of an iminoarsane was not observed but<br />

again a chlorine/methyl exchange reaction occurred as displayed<br />

by 29 Si, 1 H and 13 C NMR studies. Recrystallization from toluene<br />

gave crystals suitable for an X-ray structure determination<br />

revealing again a methyl/chlorine exchange product, now with<br />

two chlorine atoms attached to the silicon and a dimethylarsane<br />

unit according to Scheme 5 (Figure 3).<br />

Scheme 5. GaCl3-assisted methyl/chlorine exchange in<br />

dichloromethylsilyl(m-terphenyl)aminodimethylarsane (6).<br />

Obviously, when only one Me 3Si unit is present in the<br />

molecule, a double methyl/chlorine exchange at this Si center<br />

(Scheme 5) occurs while a single methyl/chlorine exchange at two<br />

different Si centers is observed when two Me 3Si groups are<br />

present (Schemes 2 and 3).<br />

The novel dichloromethylsilyl(m-terphenyl)aminodimethylarsane<br />

(6) is soluble in toluene, CH 2Cl 2 and ether and is thermally<br />

stable up to 156 °C. Aminodimethylarsane 6 is air and moisture<br />

sensitive, but <strong>und</strong>er argon it is stable over a long period in both<br />

solid and common organic solvents. Interestingly, in contrast to 1<br />

which forms a<br />

GaCl3 adduct 2, compo<strong>und</strong> 6 does not form an adduct<br />

presumably due to steric reasons.<br />

Methyl/azide-exchange reactions in trimethylsilyl(mterphenyl)aminodichloroarsane.<br />

Although we noticed that<br />

GaCl 3 already reacts with 5 in a methyl/chlorine exchange<br />

reaction, we changed the synthetic approach with respect to the<br />

order of adding the Lewis acid to determine if a formal [3+2]<br />

cyclization 2,3 is faster than the methyl/chlorine or methyl/azide<br />

exchange reaction. Hence, in a further experiment a solution of<br />

GaCl 3 in CH 2Cl 2 was added to a solution of 5 and Me 3Si–N 3 in<br />

CH 2Cl 2 at –70 °C resulting in an orange solution. After stirring at<br />

–30 °C for 30 minutes, the solution was concentrated and<br />

recrystallized at –80 °C yielding a colorless, crystaline solid (yield<br />

= 95%). A Raman experiment immediately revealed the existence<br />

of a covalent bo<strong>und</strong> azide (νas = 2141 cm –1 ) and by means of Xray<br />

structure determination the formation of<br />

azidodimethylsilyl(m-terphenyl)amino(chloro)methylarsane (7)<br />

was unequivocally proven (Figure 4). 12<br />
