The dinuclear (thio)(silyl)carbene and (seleno)(silyl)carbene gold(i) complexes 1 and 2 were obtained from the reaction of two equivalents of AuCl(SMe) with the stable bis(methylene)-λ-chalcogenanes 3 and 4, respectively. The reaction proceeds under elimination of the chlorosilane moiety of 3 and 4. Complexes 1 and 2 were characterized by spectroscopic and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses. The C NMR signals for the carbene centers of 1 (309 ppm) and 2 (345 ppm) are by more than 150 ppm downfield shifted relative to those for other known (NHC)AuCl complexes. These results indicate that (chalcogeno)(silyl)carbenes, like (amino)(silyl)carbenes, belong to the push-spectator family of carbenes.
双核(硫代)(硅基)卡宾和(硒代)(硅基)卡宾金(I)配合物1和2分别通过两当量的AuCl(SMe)与稳定的双(亚甲基)-λ-硫属元素烷3和4反应得到。该反应在消除3和4的氯硅烷基部分的情况下进行。配合物1和2通过光谱和X射线衍射(XRD)分析进行了表征。1(309 ppm)和2(345 ppm)卡宾中心的碳核磁共振信号相对于其他已知的(NHC)AuCl配合物的信号向低场位移了超过150 ppm。这些结果表明,(硫属元素)(硅基)卡宾与(氨基)(硅基)卡宾一样,属于推-旁观型卡宾家族。
