Abstract

The aluminacyclopropane K[Al(NON)(η-C 2H 4)] ([NON] 2− = [O(SiMe 2NDipp) 2] 2−, Dipp = 2,6-iPr 2C 6H 3) reacts with CO 2 and iPrN 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 11111111 00000000 11111111 00000000 00000000 00000000 C NiPr to afford ring-expanded products of C-C bond formation. The latter system undergoes a 1,3-silyl retro-Brook rearrangement of the NON-group, to afford the [NNO] 2− ligand ([NNO] 2− = [N(Dipp)SiMe 2N(Dipp)SiMe 2O] 2−). The mechanism of transformation was examined by density functional theory (DFT).
