Germanium(II)-, zinn(II)- und blei(II)-derivate des polycyclischen alumosiloxans [Ph2SiO]8[Al(O)OH]4

Abstract

Five new derivatives of the polycyclic alumosiloxane [Ph 2SiO]8[Al(O)OH]4 have been synthesized by replacement of the protic hydrogen atoms on the hydroxy-groups attached to the aluminium atoms by the divalent group 14 elements germanium, tin and lead. The compounds can be divided in those with one metal atom per alumosiloxane moiety, [Ph2SiO]8[Al(O)OH]2[AlO2]M (M = Ge, Sn), and those with complete substitution of the protic hydrogen atoms by metal atoms like [Ph2SiO]8[AlO2]4M 2 (M = Sn, Pb). Always one element of the series Ge, Sn, Pb is missing in the two types of compounds. Crystal structure analyses of [Ph 2SiO]8[Al(O)OH]2[AlO2]2M - 2 C4H8O2 (M = Ge (1), Sn (2a)), [Ph 2SiO]8[Al(O)OH]2[AlO2] 2Sn · 2 THF (2b) and [Ph2SiO]8[AlO 2]4M2 (M = Sn (3), Pb (4)) have been performed elucidating either polycyclic basket-type (1, 2a, 2b) or closed polyhedral structures (3, 4). © 2006 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
